In an extremely difficult year for my health, I am immensely grateful to Dr. Patel for his outstanding care. I began seeing Dr. Patel in June after being diagnosed with several chronic digestive issues (gastritis, duodenitis, esophagitis, GERD) and learning about naturopathic medicine online. When it came to my first session, Dr. Patel was very attentive in listening to my concerns. I shared the symptoms I was dealing with such as intense nausea, abdominal pain, weight loss, fatigue, and headaches. He took the time to address not only my overall GI issues but also other aspects of my health and lifestyle that could be improved. Dr. Patel also went in depth in explaining the potential root causes of my chronic conditions and providing several approaches on how to best optimize my healing. As a result, he created an individualized, holistic treatment plan specific to me which consisted of supplements, unique testing, lifestyle changes, stress management, anti-inflammatory remedies, and maintaining my strict elimination diet. Because of Dr. Patel’s kind and understanding nature, he expressed sincerity for my overall physical and mental wellbeing and made me feel comfortable, respected, and valued as a patient. With each follow-up appointment, I was making greater improvements than the last. Dr. Patel continued to be engaged and dedicated to my recovery and made adjustments to my treatment plan as needed. With his extensive knowledge, he guided me in my treatment process through teamwork and empathetic communication. In addition, Dr. Patel’s constant support and encouragement was something I really appreciated as he made it a point to acknowledge my perseverance and accomplishments during every meeting. Six months into Dr. Patel’s treatment plan and I have made significant progress in all areas of my health and wellbeing. I have been able to slowly reincorporate and eat the different kinds of foods I could enjoy before while also adopting a cleaner, more well-rounded diet that I plan to follow long term. The healthier lifestyle changes I have put into practice has helped me feel more balanced and greatly repaired my relationship with my body. With 2021 coming to a close, I am finally experiencing positive health days and feeling happy with the state of my physical and mental wellbeing. My journey to healing has been transformative, teaching me that your health is the biggest, if not, most important investment you could make. Taking responsibility of your health involves hard work and patience, but the outcome of overcoming your health challenges is worth the efforts. If you are dealing with similar and/or any other type of chronic health issues, I highly recommend Dr. Patel and his care approach because everyone deserves to feel good and achieve good health. And, after experiencing many incredibly tough days, I can now enjoy the holidays and transition into the new year on an uplifting and hopeful note. Thank you Dr. Patel for your ongoing commitment to my healing and wellness!
