Without the skill, knowledge, and dedication he has to his patients, the cancer would have spread. I will forever be grateful to him."
"Dr Pate and TDDC was the only GI doctor to figure out what was wrong with my stomach and intestines after 4 years, multiple Ct scans, upper and lower GI procedures with no answers. He was the only doctor to think outside the box and figure out something was causing my problems. Everything everyone else tried failed. He figured out a nerve bundle which would be considered unrelated was causing all the problems which cascaded into looking like other issues. Gerd, ibs, all the different things other doctors gave up and just threw meds at the problem. He is the only one to not throw in the towel and instead of just trying meds, he did but when each didNT help he figured out it was something else. 1 shot (of more later) finally gave me relief. 4 years, 55 pounds lost I could spare, and now I'm out of pain, I can finally eat and most importantly stop missing work. I can't thank him and tddc enough. Everyone was very compassionate, wanted to figure out the problem and did. THANK YOU!! 5 STARS isn't enough for what they did for me."
"Went to my first appointment walk in the door both of the receptionist were very nice and polite, went to the back to see the nurse she was awesome, just nice. Dr. Patel came in and oh what a very nice person let me know just what he was going to do he was awesome. The day of my procedure every one I came in contact was so nice I was a little nervous when I got there. They made me so comfortable I was so relax I had fun with everyone I talked to. They even called the next day to see if I was ok. Love everyone there keep it up guys and ladies. Thanks again for awesome experience."
"Very knowable. Good Parient/Doctor hospitality. Became more comfortable about necessary procedures that will be performed. I feel I am in good hands."
"Dr. Patel had never seen me before my visit last week. He already knew all about my medical history, he reviewed my charts prior to my arrival; that was my first great impression. So many times doctors rush you out the door, they need to get to the next patient. Dr. Patel didn't do that, at all. He took time and listened and asked many questions and answered many questions, in detail. It was great to have him make me feel as though I really mattered and was not just another case. He has a very good bed-side manner and a true desire to help his patients is apparent."
"My appt with Dr. Patel was wonderful. He is a very caring physician who takes the time to explain his conclusions and sets the patients mind at ease with his recommended course of treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Patel."

He is the best Doctor in his field."

I feel very glad that I'm under the care of Dr.Patel."
