See what our patients are saying about Piyush Patel

I have been seeing Dr. Patel for over 4 years. He has been nothing but kind and compassionate towards me. His patience is second to none and I know he always has my back. He has worked with me extensively, provided further therapy resources, and always listens. Seeing the other reviews breaks my heart, as he is one of the best Psychiatrists I have ever known. I would sincerely recommend him to others because he will listen and validate all your concerns. He will take the time out of his day (not even with an appointment) to help you out. He is one of the hardest working doctors I have ever met, and he CARES!!

I’ve only had one appointment with Dr. Patel so far, but it was a really positive experience. He made me feel comfortable right away and took the time to listen without judgment. I felt genuinely heard and understood, which is something I really value when talking about anxiety and depression. Even after just one session, I walked away feeling more hopeful and supported. I’m looking forward to continuing care with him, and I’m really glad I took that first step.

I can’t speak highly enough of Dr. Patel and the care provided for my child. After searching for several years and trying various child/adolescent psychiatrists to help diagnose and treat, Dr. Patel finally provided explanation for his diagnosis, how various medications interact on a chemical level, and basic behavioral changes that would optimize our treatment plan. Very personable.

Dr. Patel is is excellent. He explains things clearly, actually listens, and doesn’t rush you. I really appreciate how transparent he is about how medications work, what to expect, what the risks/side effects are, and why he’s recommending a specific option. Highly recommend.

I have had a great experience with Dr Piyush and the staff have been extremely responsive. My only suggestion is that if they could not put us on hold and instead do a call back option. Sometimes the wait time is long.
