"Straight to the point. Informative. Trustworthy. You name it. Dr. Patel is someone I trust to help get to the bottom of what’s going on with somebody’s health. Would recommend to other people dealing with similar issues to me."
"I was very nervous at first but Doctor Patel was so kind and thorough!! I felt better about the whole procedure after just meeting him. I would come back to him any time I needed a scope done again in the future!! Highly recommend 😊"
"Dr. Patel is kind and cares about your health. He discusses tests available to you and if he thinks they would be beneficial. No hurries with this doctor. He is truly one of my favorite doctors."
"The receptionist is a hoot. Everyone took care of my mother with complete kindness. The doctor was thorough with everything that he came to talk to Us about afterwards."
"All of the staff are always so kind from check in to after the procedure is over and you head out the door. I have been to the clinic multiple times for my husband and as the driver for friends. I am always so impressed by how sweet and professional everyone is. They listened carefully to my concerns. I spoke with everyone on my care team. They were so reassuring. Dr. Patel was amazing!"
"Update: Taking off a star because, although I was told I didn't need to return and to call if I had any questions related to my issue, when I called with a related question a little over a year later, I was brushed off by the phone nurses. They didn't even say I should make an appointment, they just said the doctor can't answer my question because he doesn't know the situation, or something like that. (Another doctor had prescribed me a medicine that had my particular gastronomical issue listed as a potential side effect, and I just wanted to know if it would be safe for me to take that medicine. Since I couldn't get an answer, I decided it was less risky to not take the medicine, even though I had unfortunately already filled the prescription when I discovered the warning about the side effect.) Original review: While I can't speak to his diagnostic abilities, as my appointment was a consultation related to an issue that had already come and gone, my impression of Dr. Patel was that he is very friendly and will answer all of your questions. I really felt confident that he knows his stuff, and he was happy to re-word and repeat things until he was sure we were on the same page."
"Dr. Patel has seen me for endoscopy & colonoscopy work. He has always taken his time to explain the procedures and the findings. Dr. Patel is very competent and personable. Sincerely, al bragg"

"Dr Jamon Patel is awesome! I struggled with belly issues for yrs and was always told it was stress, always just dismissed. My GP put me in contact with Dr Patel and he knew exactly what was wrong. He put me on correct meds and I feel fantastic! His office staff is so caring. I will recommend him!"

"Let me just be honest. I'm the scariest person ever when it comes to doctors dentist etc. I have had some well pleased Doctors and DENTISTS. There was just something extra phenomenal about Dr. Jaymon Patel, M.D. and his whole team. Once you go beyond them doors and hit the first desk everything changes. EVERY feeling ceases because she's going to reassure you of it. You know how some offices just say things to move you along because it's a constant day after day, hours after hours same routine. So it becomes a routine for them. Nope.....NOT HERE. IT BECAME A RIPPLE EFFECT LIKE A BAND PLAYING ON ONE ACCORD. EVERYTHING FLOWED AFTER THAT. EVERYONE OF THEM WERE TEAM PLAYERS AND MADE SURE YOU MATTERED. NO ADORNMENT BECOMES THIS OFFICE WITH THEIR KINDNESS ,MEEKNESS, JUSTICE AND SOLICITOUS. I THANK YOU ALL. THIS IS HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE DONE!!! 👍 NO DOUBT THEY'RE ALL HEAVEN SENT. 😇 😇 😇 🙏 🙏 🙏...NO ISSUES AFTER PROCEDURE SEE YOU ALL IN 10 YEARS! .....HALLELUJAH!!!"
"Dr. Patel has suburb bedside manners and kept my appointment very professional and informative.

"Dr. Patel discovered that I still had a Stent in the duct of Pancreas and also informed me of Barrettes esophagus and treated me for a fungal infection that previous GI Drs didn't. So for the best care go to him."
"I arrived at the office a few minutes earlier than my appointment time. I didn’t sit long before I was called to the exam room. The nurse assistant took all my vitals and went over my information sheet and meds. She was very professional and had great customer service. When she finished she advised me that Dr Patel would be right in and he was. He addressed my concerns and explained the plan of action. When he finished he went over my questions and explained everything in a very easy to understand manner. I look forward to my future with Dr Patel."

"I strongly dislike going to Dr appt. Anxiety levels hit the highest levels. As soon as I see the Dr is not listening to me I just shut down. Dr. Jayson Patel listened to everything I had to say attentively. His energy made me feel at ease right away. I'm very impressed with this since most of our discussion are already extremely hard things to talk about. So happy and thankful Dr Patel is my Doctor. He made sure I understood what my care plan was and the reasons why!!!"
