“I believe being an oncologist is not only an important responsibility but a true privilege. Every patient I meet represents an opportunity for me to make a real difference and to help turn a cancer patient into a cancer survivor! This is why I strive to provide the most attentive, effective, and advanced, evidence based care possible. And I do it with heartfelt empathy, guidance, and support for my patients and their families.”

  • "Dr. Patel is an amazing specialist. He was recommended to me by my PCP when my routine bloodwork (and history of bloodwork) continued to show extremely low iron levels. I was able to book a convenient appointment quickly. Dr. Patel is so friendly and went over my history in great detail. He was extremely thorough and made sure I understood everything. I received iron treatments as well and the follow up care has been equally as wonderful. I feel so much better physically and feel like Dr. Patel listens so well. I highly recommend him!"
