For the health and safety of our patients, staff and community, we have new protocols in place for office visits. College, medical school, residency and children's hospital fellowship: at least 13 years of education and surgical training to earn an MD and acquire the knowledge needed to treat your child with expert care.
We believe that all children should be treated as our own. Our goal is to provide your family with a medical visit that is as pleasant and informative as it is professional. We look forward to serving your family! Your first appointment with us requires a lot of information so that we might properly diagnose and develop a treatment plan for your child.

Your Office Appointment
Report
It has been well-documented that talking in closed spaces releases viral particles into the air; which can cause staff to become infected; staff could then spread the illness to hundreds of patients before demonstrating symptoms. The waiting room has been closed. Please call us when you arrive; we will let you know when to come in.
Do I Need a Referral
Report
Referral: a request from a healthcare professional or school nurse that a child see Dr. Patel for an eye examination based on symptoms or testing. Eye Emergencies: If you have an eye emergency, go to the nearest emergency room for evaluation. Dr. Patel may be contacted by the ER once the problem is stabilized, for evaluation or followup in clinic.
For Providers
Report
Important Referral Notes: some insurances require that we obtain a consult note from the primary care provider. Notes also help ensure that we see the patient in the appropriate time frame, especially given that we are often booking months out. In order to provide timely appointments and maintain efficient clinical flow, we will wait until we have received notes before scheduling the patient for an examination.
Insurance
Report
Vision Insurance: this is usually a separate policy, similar to dental insurance. Some common companies are VSP and EyeMed. This type of insurance covers a basic eye examination and is intended for people who have a need for glasses to help them achieve 20/20 vision, but do not necessarily have eye health problems.
