If I could give no stars for Dr. Patel and his medical business, I would. This medical establishment is a joke. The reception staff are actually the only thing that would make me rate this place higher, but forget about Dr. Patel, his PA and his billing service. First, if you want to see Dr. Patel, you need to make an appointment what seems to be 1 year in advance. When you do actually get there for your appointment, you have to wait FOREVER!!! It’s BS… they literally pack their patient appointments too close together and you honestly will wait no joke between 1 – 2 hours to see the Patel, but that’s only if you’re lucky. If you do actually make an appointment for Patel, you’ll probably see the PA instead, but Patel will get the money. Their billing department is absolutely one of the worst ever! You get random bills for random things. I received a bill over 1-year old… literally, ONEWHOLEYEAR later they send me some random bill. Honestly, it’s sad that people have to put up with this horrible medical treatment and the fallout from their lousy medical business. I can only imagine some of the elderly patients that go there have NO clue and Patel’s office will send them random bills. Oh, don’t even bother going to the Merced office either, it’s the same long wait and lousy patient care. Dear Dr. Patel, please do us a favor and really consider looking at patient care and ways to treat your patients better. You might know a lot about medicine, but you know NOTHING about how to treat your patients and manage a business.
