Dr Patel is wonderful. I can't say enough good things about this doctor. I have been going to him for 10 years and not only do I like him, but my husband, children, mother, sister, in-laws and niece and nephew think he is number 1! Dr Patel is extremely knowledgeable and his bed side manner is the best. I have 100% confidence in his medical expertise and he has always been impeccable at diagnosing conditions based on symptoms I've experienced.
I've been going to Dr Shashank Patel's office in Olney over the years and have been treated with the utmost respect and friendliness by the office staff. I am saddened by the departure of Edy (one of the front office staff) and wish her well in her new endeavors, but I am sure that I will be treated just as well by the other front office staff.
Recently I visited the Rockville location (Rockville Internal Medicine) where Dr. Patel sees patients on Wednesdays. This venue is very different from the Olney office whereby there are hundreds (a little exaggeration) of other practitioners there and lots more patients. It doesn't have the same warm and friendly atmosphere, but it is very convenient because there are lots of specialists associated with Rockville Internal Medicine in the same building as well as a lab. As far as Dr. Patel is concerned, he is the same warm, friendly, experienced and knowledgeable doctor in either of his offices.
Thank you Dr. Patel for always making, going to the doctor, such a nice experience. read more
