"I just recently switched Gastroenterologists to Dr Nayan Patel. I am very pleased with this decision. He listens, asks lots of questions, is compassionate and very thorough."
"Excellent experience from start to finish. Everyone was so kind and helpful and went above and beyond expectations. I could not be more pleased and thankful."
"Staff at this office are so sweet and welcoming! My appointment was completed in a timely manner. Dr.Patel, had great bedside manner and explained everything thoroughly, and gave me the space to talk and ask questions :)"
"The whole team working there was great and especially doctor Patel helped me to feel as comfortable as possible and to release my anxiety concerning the procedure."
"i had a consultation today with Dr. Nayan Patel, D.O. The office staff is very friendly and efficient. Dr. Patel was extremely nice and explained the diagnostic procedure and answered all my questions patiently. The office has close parking to the entrance. It was a very enjoyable experience, I highly recommend Dr. Patel and his office staff."
"Telehealth visit was easy to connect and use Dr. Was on time Communication was clear both ways Dr. was deliberate in his procedure and left openings for my questions I still prefer in person visits"
"As a retired physician I checked out Dr Patel qualifications and AZ board information prior to seeing him. He will be my 3rd GI doc, after my two previous docs retired, so I wanted not only someone who is very good medically but also has an excellent “bedside manner”! I think I have found him. I’ll let you know after my diagnostic test are complete and the results are in."
"My first encounter with Dr Patel was a good one. He comes across as very kind, and has a desire to diagnose what’s been problematic. He listens and asks questions without arrogance. Overall, a great start."
"Checking in was a problem. No sign up sheet was out and I was told to sit down. At 40 mins after my apt. Time, I approached the receptionist again and I get a call from your office, "Where am i". Other than that Dr Patel was great! Maybe she was overwhelmed or not enough staff?"
"The office staff, and Dr. Patel were very efficient and knowledgeable. The visit was according to schedule and everything was explained perfectly. Was very happy with the experience."
"Dr. Patel was a great kind and caring doctor. He spoke clearly and slowly to make sure I understood everything and made sure all my questions were answered!! Super nice person!!!"
"I like Dr. Patel very much. His office personnel are very personable and very helpful! when I went in for my endoscopy, the whole staff were awesome. Thank you for the special care!!"
"Dr Patel was extremely personable, thoroughly explained the procedures I was going to be undergoing, and personally called me with results even though they indicated no problems."
"Was somewhat disappointed that nothing could be “done” about my condition but after remembering a past issue, I asked the asst for the doc to return to my room. He did so immediately, we went over that issue, he checked my medical history and immediately thought more testing was needed. He put in the order. That was appreciated."
"Awesome as always and great having him assigned as my specialist. Checks in on other matters of my health and not like a typical doctor who explains and wants to get to the next patient. Very informative but welcoming at the same time Thanks Doc!"
"Very nice office staff. It would be nice if the confirmation texts/emails would also include the address of the specific office. The practice has multiple offices, and not all locations came up on the map search which resulted in me going to the wrong office initially, and while the receptionist was polite at the wrong office, even she couldn’t provide me with the correct office address where my Dr was at. Seems like such a simple thing that could fixed."
"One of the most caring and knowledgeable Doctors I have met. Dr. Patel took wonderful care of me during my health diagnosis with caring and compassion. I highly recommend him if you need a GI doctor."
"I was referred to Dr. Nayan Patel by my endocrinologist. Dr Patel explained everything to my husband and I about my condition. He is running some tests on me. I would definitely recommend Dr. Patel he is very thorough and made me feel like I am in good hands."
"After having a colonoscopy with Dr Nayan Patel today I only have positive things to say about him and his staff. Everyone was very kind, professional, and communicative. Highly recommend!"
"I underwent an endoscopy yesterday at the Scottsdale Endoscopy Center with Dr. Patel. Dr Patel is great, he's thorough and makes himself available throughout the entire process."
"Extremely enjoyed my experience with the staff at Dr. Nayan Patel’s office as well as the doctor’s efficient and professional consult. Thank you for your great office and “bedside manner!”"
"Dr. Patel was very professional and kind in finding a solution to my referring Dr's concerns. Eric RN was also professional and very accommodating in scheduling and rescheduling my appointment for Endoscopy, and was very thorough in explaining pre-procdure instructions and any questions or concerns I had. Front desk personal not so much, she was rude and more concerned about her only lunch hour not being disturbed. I had arrived 30min early to a 1pm appt, when I arrived the door was locked and the lights were off, she opened the door and asked me to have a seat, when asked if I needed to fill out any first time client paperwork while I waited till 1pm, she quickly asked me to be quiet and sit quietly, cause she's not answering any questions till 1pm when the office reopens after lunch."
"While the procedure is not an enjoyable one, Dr. Patel and his team made it as pleasant as possible. Plus, Dr. Patel was very thorough and knowledgeable when reviewing my results. Exceeded my expectations."
"Dr Patel is wonderful! Helped me control my colitis that the hospital did not do. Was willing to provide service to me in Ca till I find a new GI Dr. I appreciate his service!"

"As a first time patient Dr Patel made my experience both pleasant and informative. Not sure if “I can’t wait” for the Upper GI that resulted from that visit is a positive or a negative for the review, but it doesn’t change my rating at all. 😬"

The staff both at his office & the Endoscopy Center were so nice, helping to ease an "uncomfortable" situation for the patient. My thanks to the entire team, & I have already told other friends to certainly book their appointment through them."
"I really appreciate a well run and caring medical practice. Dr Patel and his staff and the surgical team at Scottsdale Endoscopy Center are a great blend of modern technological efficiency and old school “bed side manner”. Candace did an excellent job of coordinating all the various touch points from the initial teledoc screening appointment with Dr Patel to the procedure itself. Dr Patel did a great job of both calming me before the procedure with light hearted banter and explaining how the procedure went afterwards. All in all, this was a top shelf experience from start to finish."
