I cannot express how grateful I am to have found Dr. Patel. I have been through a lot in the last nine years and I have not found many that I would say is a great physician, but he is. He listened. He was very informative. I felt like I was an actual person to him and not just another chart. He bought far exceeded my expectations.. everyone on his staff was courteous and friendly. I have been singing their praises all day.

I was first seen by this doctor while I was a Wellstar Kennestone patient. This was a follow up visit. Dr. Patel has been exceptionally kind & compassionate when I've encountered him. In spite of me being his last patient of the day, at this visit ~ Dr. Patel was prepared, knew my history, & listened intentionally to what I had to say. He asked questions and then gave his assessment plan for me. I would recommend him 100%

I think they could be friendlier at check-in. Before I even got to the person to check in she just said "name". This was my first appointment there. If she had only said "Good afternoon. What is your name , please?" It would have been more welcoming. I know they do this all day but it would make a difference. I did really like Dr. Patel. He could not have been any nicer. As I was leaving someone at the desk did call out " Have a nice evening ".
