TESTIMONIALS
KIND WORDS FROM CLIENT
BHAVIK PATEL
Me and my wife had an encounter with Dr Patel while he was in residency. We have been used to many residents as we have always gone to UMC for all our needs. He stood out from the way he introduced himself and then again with his warm bedside manner. Not only that, he was very thorough about the whole process of ventral hernia repair, what to expect, the recovery time, etc. Any surgery is a big deal for a patient and Dr Patel made sure to make us feel as safe as possible.

Bhavik Patel is a fine surgeon and physician. This doctor’s bedside manner and sincerity cannot be overstated. He played a crucial role in my recovery after my traumatic car accident. He was my doctor for over 2 months and every encounter with him while in the hospital was pleasant to say the least.
