Dr. Mitul S. Patel

"Dr Patel took care of my daughter when she came into Valley hospital as an Emergency visit and was subsequently hospitalized. From the moment we met Dr. Patel, he took his time to answer questions and explain procedures and possible outcomes clearly with a patient and kind bedside manner. He was very knowledgeable and when important decisions needed to be made on how to proceed and whether or not to do surgery,, he patiently explained options. He didn’t pressure us to make decisions quickly but explained the pros and cons of each option . On a Sunday a day, most people want to be home with their family, he spent significant additional time on a procedure exploring to see if there were damaged areas of the vasculature that had been overlooked, causing additional problems for my daughter. We felt like he went above and beyond from the get go. My daughter and I felt very comfortable with his care. As a person who is also a medical professional -a Physician Assistant (No, I never met Dr. Patel before my daughter’s hospitalization and I never mentioned to him that I was a healthcare professional until her discharge ) who has worked with many physicians throughout my own career, I was extremely impressed with his patience and kindness and mostly how thorough he was and his follow through. Most doctors in my professional experience are not that patient and thorough. In this crazy, stressful world we live in, he made a very difficult time feel a little bit easier. If ever you need a vascular surgeon , you would be in excellent hands with Dr.Patel."

"Dr Patel operated on my brother on the afternoon that the new Valley Hospital opened. He was very thorough and professional, and attentive He went above and beyond on a very stressful day."

"Update: After posting below Dr. Patel called me directly and the issue has been resolved. I greatly appreciate Dr. Patel taking an active role to resolve this matter and the collection agency will be notified. I never saw Dr. Patel as a patient, he read my vascular ultrasound. Insurance did not cover the costs because the practice is out of network. The cost amounted to $600. When I called the office (2x) as i was willing to pay I was informed that they needed discuss the matter with billing, which is at a NY location. Both times they did not get back to me. Then the outstanding debt was referred to a collection agency."

"Dr.Patel, is my vascular surgeon. He is very knowledgeable & experienced in his field. I was admitted from the emergency room @ Valley Hospital needing surgery to remove blood clots. I feel very blessed to have had Dr. Patel, whom I never met before to do this procedure. I am also happy with the treatment & recovery. Thanks to Dr. Patel..."

"Dr. Patel is a compassionate and exceptionally talented vascular surgeon as well as an outstanding individual. He stepped up to the plate, when other surgeons gave up on my husband, and saved his life. As we write this our entire family is on vacation celebrating together, an event that would have been impossible without Dr. Patel's dedication and talent. We feel confident recommending Dr. Patel to anyone who is in need of a vascular specialist."
