Dec 2023I am a longtime patient at this facility (25+ years), and have always been very satisfied with everybody on the team over the years. Dr. Shanker-Patel has been my primary care physician since she joined the practice a year ago, and I can't say enough good things about her. Dr. Shanker-Patel has provided an unprecedented level of patient care, from familiarizing herself thoroughly with my medical history as a new (to her) patient to understanding and carefully analyzing various aspects of my care. I find Dr. Shanker-Patel's very clear explanations, great breadth of medical knowledge, and willingness to look more deeply into any questions I ask to be refreshing and confidence-inspiring.
