	September 2023 Good Experience
	September 2023 I was thoroughly impressed with Dr Patel, Ararat. He listened and was not dismissive of my daughters pain and concerns. He explained the next steps and potential diagnosis appropriately. He answered all our questions and I feel confident having him take care of our daughter.
	September 2023 Dr. Patel explained everything he was thinking in regards to our daughter so we understood. He took the time to listen and he spoke with my daughter about her symptoms instead of ignoring her and asking us. I really like that in a doctor to understand while she is 9 she is capable of expressing her own feelings and concerns.
