Dr. Savan Patel was very nice. He didn't rush me. He explained what condition my knees were in & assured me they were not to the point of even considering to have them replaced. He asked if I had any questions & if my knees acted up again I will definitely request him. Thank you Dr. Patel.

X-Ray imaging showed a left foot filled with arthritis, per Dr. Patel. He prescristeroid to help relieve swelling and pain, recommended foot rest, elevation and icing; also a follow-up visit with Stephen [ ], DPM in 2-3weeks. (Dr. [ ] saw me early Summer 2024 for a different symptom of the right foot. ). If the cause of my left foot problem is arthritis, I would prefer being followed by an Ortho, MD.
