Rajni B. Patel's Online Review Report Card

Excellent doctor. Very caring and knowledgeable. Speaks to his patients and family members were the patient has an understanding as to what he is saying.

Gave the wrong diagnosis and when mom raised more concern to the baby's health it came out to be a life threating disorder what doctor was seeing as normal delayed development.

Over a period of several years my problems with this doctor have been considerably less since I was correctly diagnosed by a different doctor and already stabilized with medication when I returned to Dr Patel. On more than one occasion I encountered catastrophic office staff practices, while totally unacceptable in most offices, considered totally acceptable regardless of the accepted standards. It was perfectly all right to call me at home and demand cash money the day of the call by the end of the day for $50 for a missed appointment. Recently I was told by office staff after paying cash money, $25 for a medically necessary call to the insurance company, and $94 dollars co payment in case my insurance didn't cover, that I was done with DR Patel for apparently failing to completely understand his current office politics? He has started another all new office staff again as of February 5th 2018, which he does periodically, probably to keep his workers at reduced wages/ benefits. You’ll be lucky to get 3 to 4 minutes with the doctor after waiting 25 to 40 minutes in a cramped room from the 50ies and then waiting an additional 5 or 10 minutes after seeing the doctor for the office staff to complete the prescriptions he ordered and may have signed. You better be patient in order to be a Dr Patel patient or you may be told by office staff to find a different doctor that might be something other than a “script doctor”. After all Dr Patel never did remedy or suggest anything close to my actual medical problem and certainly did not have the intestinal fortitude to address my problems with his current staff. He was able to copy medical orders that were previously ordered by other doctors but any difference made by him proved to be an introduction to living as a zombie

I knew the day he'd start weening me off Xanax was coming despite having severe agoraphobia, PTSD and depression so I started weening myself from food so my medication would work better. Though I sometimes faint and my pants often fall down, it's a small price to pay to avoid those horrific attacks that make me wish I were dead instead of suffering.

We have been taking our kids to Dr Patel for 20 years. I could not ask for a more caring doctor for our children. He treats each of his patients and parents like family.

Dr. Patel is the most caring, involved physician, I have ever encountered. He has always treated our family with the utmost kindness, respect, & concern. We have been part of the North Penn Pediatric family for years, & now our children's children belong to the practice. Dr. Patel has always gone above and beyond in every situation, and we're so thankful for his years of excellent care. Whoever wrote the previous review must have the wrong Dr. Patel. Everyone thinks he's the BEST!!!

If it wasn't for Dr. Patel I would have switched my children's doctor years ago. Although I've recently discovered that they do not check my 9 year Olds vision which they should be. Also I'm not keen on the hospitals he is affiliated with so I will be switching doctors. The staff was constantly calling a phone number I had told them to remove months ago.

i love this guy, my pediatrician since i was a baby, love you dr.patel
