On your limited numeric ratings Sagar Patel is really off the charts. It was my first appointment with him. He took the time prior to our call to review all of the information I provided about my medical history and recent treatments. We reviewed all of my options going forward leaving it completely up to me to proceed with a protocol of my choosing. His demeanor was pleasant, informative, empathetic, and engaged. He has an innate ability to listen and converse. Just a really great guy. So glad I found him.
