Dr. Patel has been my PCP for many years. In Jan. 2026, he moved from WellMed-LaPorte to Kelsey-Seybold-Pasadena.  It was my first time to go to Kelsey, and I was pleased. The main thing is I wanted to stay with Dr. Patel, a true professional; he is kind, listens to my concerns, and is so informative. His nurse is caring and kind.  I am grateful to both of them for taking care of me.
