Dr. Patel has soft hands went it comes to checking the ol’beanbag. For this being the first male to inspect lefty and righty out, it was surprisingly nice to how warm his hands are. I am used to having ice cubes of hands do the inspection (which was nice when they were buried and swollen. For all future issues I will request to be seeing by Dr. Patels magic mittens.

During my [ ] scope exam, Dr. Patel spotted a lesion in my [ ]. He discussed options for dealing with my prostate but made sure to prioritize discussion of the [ ] lesion and emphasized the importance of scheduling a time for a biopsy and removal. The bottom line is I suspect he discovered a cancerous lesion at its earliest stage and I feel so fortunate that Northwestern is my medical care provider because there was no hesitancy at all on the part of my primary care physician to refer me to a urologist to deal with my concerns about my prostate and it is my urologist’s thoroughness in his examination that led to the early discovery of the legion.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
