I don’t have words to describe Dr. Shalin Patel and if I did, I would not do justice. He is Absolutely one of THE BEST Dr’s I’ve ever come across in Houston and believe me I’ve unfortunately dealt with a lot. He is caring, passioShow morenate and very patient in explaining everything you need to know. If anyone out there is looking for a Nephrologist please do yourself and your family a favor try him out.

What a pleasant experience. I no sooner checked in than I was called to an exam room. Once the preliminaries were done, Dr. Patel came right in. He answered all my questions and gave me insight into my current situation. So out Show moreof the ordinary these days. Thank you for such a great experience.
