Patient Reviews
Apr 17, 2026
Dr. Patel was dismissive of my questions, concerns, and opinions of my own treatment. I asked for clarification and he dismissed my questions out of hand. In response to his prompting I said definitively that I was uninterested in weight loss as a treatment for my condition and instead of accepting that and focusing on other options, he doubled down and interrogated my 'hesitancy' to loosing weight. I explained my reasons and he, again, dismissed them and pushed back on me ignoring my concerns and belittling that knowledge I had on the subject. I don't claim to be a doctor, much less a dietician, but importantly neither does Dr. Patel and he spoke with authority outside of his qualifications to shut down and dismiss my concerns for my own treatment. He is not safe for neurodivergent patients, and he is definitely not safe for fat patients. He does not take the time to empathize or even listen to his patients concerns and refuses to accept alternative viewpoints to his conclusions.
