From the reception area and all the receptionists and technicians do a wonderful job. They've always been kind, courteous, and they are able to answer all my questions no matter what, when I call. And Dr. Patel, personally, that's my guy because he does a wonderful job with my health care. And he's seen me through a whole lot of sickness. But, you know, now we're moving forward to possibly curing some of the things that have been wrong with me over these past 10 years. But thank you and you have a good day. And thank you for your service. Goodbye.

And after that, everything's fine. They find out what's wrong. They order it on CVS, and they send me to another doctor. I don't know. Everything seems to work out well. I'm not depressed about it. I think it was a good experience. And I don't mind coming here. It's less crowded. There's more to do about the business. I'm getting you well.

Dr. Patel did a great job hearing out interesting symptoms that I had. He allowed me to get testing done that put my mind at ease. Even though I ended up being healthy, I'm glad that he took my concerns seriously and got me the treatment and care that I needed in order to verify that nothing was wrong because I was very worried based on some testing results. I really appreciate Dr. Patel, I really appreciate him hearing me out, and I really appreciate the care and concern he showed in order to double check, in order to make sure that everything was going well. He didn't just take things for granted or make assumptions. He made sure that we got the data we needed to verify that my treatment was correct.
