Dr. Patel saved my sight. Because my eyes had been bothering me, I was referred to Dr. Patel. He told me I have Graves' ophthalmopathy, which would take about three years to resolve. This condition causes eye muscles to swell and often the eyes bulge. In about 5% or less of cases, the muscle swelling causes pressure on the optic nerves resulting in visual issues. This was happening to me. I started on drugs but my condition worsened. In March 2016 Dr. Patel referred me to neuro ophthalmology and I started on prednisone. In April 2016 my neuro ophthalmologist, Dr. Judith Warner, prescribed 3 infusions of 1000 mg of prednisone. In spite of the drug therapy, my condition continued to worsen. By the end of April 2016 vision in my right eye was almost gone. Dr. Warner consulted with Dr. Patel about surgical options. On May 4, 2016 Dr. Patel reviewed images. That evening I had a CT scan and Dr. Patel scheduled surgery for the morning of May 6, 2016. Unfortunately, some of Dr. Patel's eye lid surgery patients were delayed because of emergency surgery necessary to save my sight. Dr. Patel performed bilateral orbital decompression surgery and the vision in my right eye was restored. Dr. Patel told me this disease would take 3 years to resolve and he has been right. After surgery May 6, 2016 I recovered well but the disease continued to flare. In May and June I saw Dr. Warner who was concerned and prescribed 3 high dose infusions increased daily prednisone dosage. My condition worsened and Dr. Patel performed another emergency bilateral optic nerve decompression surgery on July 1, 2016. Dr. Patel and Dr. Warner met with Dr. Yin Hitchcock, radiation oncologist. In July and August 2016 I had radiation therapy under Dr. Hitchcock's direction. In September 2016 my condition began to stabilize. Since then, Dr. Robert Hoffman has performed 3 surgeries to resolve the double vision I have struggled with since May 2016. Now I am adjusting to my "new normal" as Dr. Warner calls it. My vision is not what it was 2+ years ago but I can see. I am very grateful to Dr. Warner and Dr. Patel for my sight.

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Patel. He is not only an incredible surgeon but also has magical powers. After 4 weeks my sutures have been removed from my ears, there are no scars and I look and feel fantastic.

I have always had a droopy eye. And no one has ever been able to give me a reason. As i got older the ptosis got worse. I was referred to Dr. Patel and he was able to give me an answer right away. He suggested this ptosis repair surgery that has had a great outcome! Not only is the appearance better but it has also helped with my vision!

Dr. Patel was awesome! He removed a dermoid cyst from our one year old daughters eye. We were so nervous because she is so young but Dr. Patel quickly made us feel comfortable. He did an amazing job on the surgery and it is healing well. Definitely one of the kindest doctors we have ever met. Highly highly recommend!

I did a lot of research and met with multiple surgeons before deciding to go with Dr. Patel. I had a forehead osteoma, and it was very difficult to find a surgeon that had experience and/or preference to do the procedure via an endoscopic method. I was concerned with having a large scar on the center of my forehead, in addition to the loss of feeling/numbness. Dr. Patel was the only plastic surgeon I was able to meet with that had experience in the endoscopic method. He did a phenomenal job and I could not be happier. The procedure was simple and done within less than 2 hours. The scaring is minimal and it is hidden in my hair line. I have not noticed any hair loss in the area of the incision as well. Dr. Patel was extremely patient and helpful. We met on multiple occasions and he answered my questions until I was comfortable to move forward.

my experience with Dr Patel was a wonderful experience the performance from the front office staff the ease and quickness of checking in to the operating room staff the kindness and professionalism of explaining the next steps and preparation plus Dr Patel's visit prior to the operation making sue everything was ok , his expertise and the results was perfect. The way the take care of you after the operation was remarkable I have never received such perfect care.
