Patient Satisfaction
Leave a review
How likely are you to recommend Dr. Mehta?
Dr. Nilesh is an exceptional gastroenterologist who provided a truly transformative experience for me as a patient. After a disappointing encounter with a previous GI doctor who was dismissive and condescending, I sought a second opinion from Dr. Nilesh, and I couldn't be more grateful. The moment he walked into the room, his warmth and welcoming demeanor put me at ease. Dr. Nilesh's thoroughness and intelligence were evident throughout our consultation, as he left no stone unturned in understanding my condition. What truly set him apart was his ability to truly listen and empathize with my concerns, never disregarding my emotions or symptoms. I felt genuinely heard and validated, and it instilled a sense of confidence in my treatment journey. Dr. Nilesh's compassionate approach and patient-centered care are a testament to his exceptional qualities as a physician. I am incredibly fortunate to have found him, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a gastroenterologist!
