I had a urethral stricture since I was 14 as a result of an impact on the top-tube of a bicycle…read more For exactly 50-years I'd had a number of urethrotomy's with both scalpel and lazar; I managed through self-dilation during those intervening (approximately 5-years) periods. Through a lark I decided to change doctors to get a urologist closer to home. The new doctor referred me to Dr. Gelman. As it turns out, Dr. Gelman's office is very close to where I live and he's been doing urethral reconstruction since 1998 - and that's all he does. Dr. Gelman went out of his way to describe the two procedure options and the likely outcome for each. He also did a good job setting up expectations and time-tables. The procedure went very well - in fact I had my 64th birthday the day after the procedure - and I am now fully recovered. I can urinate without restriction and without any kind of urethral "management". And let me once again emphasize - urethral reconstruction is all he does! People come to see him from across the country - and from around the world.

Dear Dr. Pearce, I just wanted to take a moment to sincerely…read morethank you for the care you've given Tony. Watching someone you love go through a procedure is never easy, but from the moment we were under your care, there was a sense of calm and trust that I can't fully put into words. Your confidence, your skill, and the way you handled everything made all the difference for both of us. Tony and I have been together for 33 years. We've built a life, a family, and a bond that's hard to explain. He's not just my husband, he's my person, my partner in everything, and truly the love of my life. So placing his care in someone else's hands is something I take very seriously. Seeing Tony come out of surgery doing so well, comfortable, smiling, and even feeling good meant everything to me. After all these years together, all I want is for him to be healthy, to feel good, and to continue enjoying life with me. What you did made that possible in a very real way. That kind of outcome doesn't just happen. It comes from experience, precision, and genuinely caring about your patients. You didn't just perform a procedure, you gave me peace of mind, and you gave Tony a better quality of life moving forward. You took care of someone who is my whole world, and for that, I will always be grateful. Thank you for showing up the way you do. It truly makes a difference. Thank you for your Staff Chastity she made preparing for surgery so easy when i was a mess! With heartfelt appreciation, Annette

I would highly recommend Dr. Patel to anyone dealing with kidney stones. I can't say enough good…read morethings about him! I started having excruciating pain a little over two months ago and was certain it was a kidney stone since I had them about 15 years ago and it's a pain you don't forget. I was referred to Dr. Patel and I am so grateful I found him. He's the most understanding, caring, kind and knowledgeable doctor I've dealt with when it comes to stones. He takes his time with you and educates his patients in great detail on how to prevent future kidney stones and walks you through the process every step of the way. Unfortunately, I had 2 stones. One that took me almost 2 weeks to pass. I ended up needing lithotripsy for the other, which I had done last week. He kept me informed on the process every step of the way which helped with any fears I had. He had me bring the stone I did pass back to him so the lab could determine what it was made of to help prevent future stones. He also had me do a 48 hour urine collection to assist with stone prevention. He made sure to educate me on what changes to make in my diet to assist with stone prevention and taught me how important hydrating is. I hate drinking water and love drinking soda but I now understand the impact that these habits have on my body. He truly cares about getting his patients stone free for life and is extremely empathetic about the excruciating pain these nasty rocks cause. He's also just an all around great guy and has an amazing bedside manner. I also have to say that his nurse, Lariza is absolutely AMAZING!!!!! She's extremely caring and attentive. She called me back every time I had a question or concern and always made sure my mind was at peace when I had concerns about anything I was going through. I'm finally at the tail end of this whole ordeal and starting to feel like myself again and I'm beyond grateful to have had both Dr. Patel and Lariza help me through this process. While this is not something anyone wants to go through, having Dr. Patel and Lariza's support during this time will make it easier. I know this firsthand!

After seeing Dr. Shawn Beck…read more.. This guy is exactly what is wrong with our healthcare system. He told me to "chill the f**k out", recommended trying muscle relaxers, and totally disregarded my reported symptoms. I was 18 years old at the time. All he had to do was give me a simple ultrasound. One year later, because of this neglect I had to undergo a complicated surgery because my varicocele had grown so much that it made my testicular pain horrendous. I urge you to seek a second opinion after this guy. He discouraged me and blamed my physical ailments on "anxiety" and suggested taking muscle relaxers. What a joke of a doctor.

I wanted to be seen by a specialist so that I could possibly get more ideas on staying healthy and preventing problems in the future. Also, I wanted to make sure nothing else was going on. This doctor was not very empathetic and he did not really take notes on my symptoms. Most doctors I have seen lately type everything you say into their system. He barely wrote anything. He also stated very early in our conversation that he thought my symptoms were due to stress and were not due to any other issue. I told him about the urgent care tests and he still seemed very unconvinced. Now it is two weeks later and the test they ran showed the same results as the urgent care. I am thoroughly disappointed that a doctor would dismiss my symptoms as stress or in my head. This is a very dangerous practice since some people may have more serious issues that are being dismissed only to become worse without treatmebt. I had a real issue that needed medication and he was ready to ignore my symptoms. I will not be returning to this doctor and I will be finding another doctor that will listen and be empathetic.
