Yes, Dr. Patel was very knowledgeable about his area and also about my background and what happened to me and what is the best for me to go forward for the radiation. He was very respectful and very calm and listened completely to what I had to say and answered all my questions. I think he is one of the best in your hospital. Thank you.
