She is just the best
My visit with my doctor is always excellent. Have a good report with her.
Very good
Very caring provider. She listens.
Dr. Patel is amazing.
Thank you for your time, but I will not be returning.
Thanks for your outstanding service.
We love her
Nikki and Dr Patel are GREAT
She doesn’t actually listen, i mentioned twice that I was out of my medication and I needed a refill. It has just to be done.
Dr. Patel is very nice, compassionate, and easy to talk to.
She really cares about my health. My favorite physician.
Dr. Patel is very concerned about our long term health health
Everyone is AMAZING
Thanks
GREAT
Dr. Patel mentioned that she could provide medication in the 60 total amount so I didn’t have to be at the pharmacy every month. Gas prices and the Elites version of inflation is ridiculous.
Great doctor thank you
My only concern this trip was getting my appointment for follow-up before I was even out of the hospital. I ended up staying several more days so I wound up being discharged on Monday, saw Home Health on Tuesday, and my PCP on Wednesday. It was a bit overwhelming.
I love these people. I feel very cared for.
GREAT
I would love to have her as my primary care provider
VERY PROFESSIONAL
Excellent
None. Thank you!
Constant texting that I had a message for 2 to 3 days that was not there
Thank you so much for not giving up on me. It really means a lot to me
You couldn't make a pleasant visit no better than the staff that you have there
Keep up the good work
I work in the health field but am still treated like a patient. I am given the same time and respect a patient would be given. I appreciate that.
Thank you for the steroids it has helped
Thank you for your time.
Very helpful
❤❤❤ you guys
I would also like to share how professional and courteous her nurse Laura is. She is great
I look forward to having you as our family doctor/provider!
I feel confident that I have chosen the best place for my medical care!
I am really happy I choose her as my PCP
I've stated my issues.
I adore Dr Patel and recommend her to everyone
Love love love
I really appreciate her time and explanations
I am going to keep following up with her to get my health in order
I am impressed with the the time she spends with me. Wonderful bedside manner. Quality care.
Very understanding
I love Dr Patel!!
Great job over all.
The time waiting could improve
Awesome visit!
Try to actually show interest and listen to your patients. It would seem that efforts to display empathy you manage to neglect actually showing attention to what the patient is trying to explain.
Dr. Patel is an incredibly busy doctor but when it’s your turn she makes you feel like you are her only patient. Her mannerism is excellent.
The doctor did not examine me as thoroughly as I felt she should have looking in my ears feeling my throat after I complained about my throat bothering me
I checked in and was seen reasonable fast. Laura took my vitals spoke with me about what was happening this visit. Dr. Patel then came in after a reasonable amount of time and was very thorough about our plans for my health care going forward.
Love Dr. Patel. Always friendly and respectful. She doesn’t make me feel rushed
You’re treating me with respect and you know I don’t know what I would’ve done if I had the cane
Excellent
The entire staff are excellent
Telling me that my symptoms are not real damaged my ability to trust that my best interests are being considered. I felt that I was being scolded for asking questions and trying to understand my healthcare needs.
None
Dr.Patel is the best
She did not explain anything. She came in got on her laptop. Asked a few questions about the meds I was taking. Listen to my breathing and left saying she would get my visit summery.
We are relieved to find a new doctor so quickly in our new area.
Dr. Patel works to get me into her waiting room and to s
She's always kind and attentive.
I appreciate Dr. Patel and her staff very much

Glad I’ve changed PC

Don’t have any
You're an amazing Dr.....
I would see Dr. Patel again for any other issues.
This was an overall amazing visit. I feel very happy with my choice of picking Dr. Patel for my primary doctor
They need to take time out to tell you more about what going on
Thank you!
She was great like the rest of her staff
I love the way things with.
I think I needed to tell her more about my health.
Front desk staff was professional though they were very busy. Rooming staff very professional. Dr. Patel is an excellent communicator. The processes at this clinic are working and efficient. The staff is happier for it.
DR PATEL IS AWESOME
None
Thanks
Thank you for all the help
No doctors have all day it is get you in and out. But you have to listen to your patients. Allow them the time to explain what’s going on with thy body. Because you slide that insurance card before you enter the service room your getting paid above and beyond some of the service you do. You make sure that’s taking care of from the start. So patients should at least not be rush in and push out.
We don't see eye to eye on prophylactic treatments and when time comes I need Dr. who is not under a corporate thumb. Independent Drs. are saving lives.
There’s none.
Very satisfied with this practice!
I really really enjoy being Dr Patel’s patient. I was afraid to start with. But she has WON me over. Sincerely and thank you so so much. Stay safe and Happy Holidays. Lisa Holt
My visit was awesome
Twice I have been worked in on a short term notice
Nothing at this time!!! Thank You!!!
Dr Patel is very sweet and helpful and understanding at every visit all ways cares about her patients
Dr. Patel is a very doctor.
Great experience
She is excellent
No additional feedbacks
Thank you both so much!
Thank you for making me feel at ease being I had not been to a Dr in over 35 years.you made me feel not as scared and the medicine you put me on seems to be helping I can't thank you and your nurse enough
Overall everything good
I appreciate her being honest and direct with me about my diagnosis.
Na
The physician is excellent caregiver but getting to talk to a nurse is impossible sometimes
Thanks for listening and trying to help me.
Excellent service
Very good clinic
She puts her all into her patients
Mrs. Patel and her nurse Laura were awesome. ?
I thank y'all team
Recommend her to my family.
She made me feel at ease.
Thank you for helping me
I was really satisfied with the results and care I received.
I feel that my provider hears me but doesn’t listen to me. She kind of already makes up her mind before I finish my statement without listening to all of my symptoms
Very disappointed for a third time with this doctor. We love Dr Ackley but because of this experience will be changing providers for the entire family.
you are awesome
Never change.
Accent was difficult to understand at times.
Dr. Patel does not seem too interested in me as a patient. I hope other patients don’t feel the same way. It’s sad to see a premier clinic drop it’s care so much.
Dr. Patel was great. She was so welcoming and friendly. I loved how detailed she was during my visit
None
I already did. Go back and reread my responses. I believe this question is down two times. It may be worded differently but it’s the same.
Very thankful
Looking forward to my next visit.
Treat all patients with good chair side manner even though they may not have you as their primary care provider. Spend more than 5 minutes with the patient and explain why things are getting ordered.
We don’t have additional feedback but thanks for all you guys have done.
She explains things and listens. Although I have my daughter she explains it to me so I understand the care I am getting.
Thank them all for making me feel better and comfortable
Thank You
I enjoyed my time and felt heard and connected with Dr. Patel.
She was probably in the room for 5 minutes. Really quick visit.
Don’t have none
Concerned about her patients!
Dr Patel is the best!
Enjoy
She is a true asset and exceeded my expectations! I loved my previous doctor at UAMS but she was always over booked and busy working too many facilities so I could rarely see her.
Thank uou in jesus name for your love compassion care for me
I have already said how Dr. Patel treats her patients.
Very thankful for Doctor Patel and her staff.
None
Thanks
It’s hard to see much positive when your time is not respected. I always try to be ten to fifteen mins early.
I have none at this time
I am grateful to have her as my doctor.
Doctor's nurse was especially personable and helpful
A Good Doctor
None.
We appreciate Dr. Patel being able to see Joely on such short notice.
Just appreciate her seeing me as Dr Ackley was booked.
I have congestion a lot. Wish to find a reason
Great Service
Dr was very informative
