Optum - Foothill Ranch

I have bee seeing Dr. Patel for almost 18 years now. I also see Marie the PA. Ive had nothing but a positive experience every time I visit. Both are very professional, kind and knowledgeable. They always take time to address my concerns and answer my questions.

I have had nothing but great experiences with Dr Patel, Marie, and the staff. I am always seen quickly and get the answers I need.

Was going to Dr. Patel for years, and liked him. They decided to transfer me to Marie, which I was opened to, and everything went south. Shes very arrogant and sassy, and in no way makes you feel comfortable. Fast forward over a year, and I missed ONE appointment with her. Shortly thereafter I receive a letter in the mail saying our relationship as a health provider/patient is ending. Seriously? WTF? People have other obligations that surface in life, and some more than others. This was extremely unprofessional, and they clearly have other motives versus ongoing care of a longtime patient. Thanks, but no thanks.

Not sure why the other 3 people who submitted reviews were so unhappy. I've had a great experience with this doctor's office. I can't imagine Dr. Patel or any of the staff being rude. The staff is pleasant, friendly, helpful and another thing that I don't find at most doctor's offices these days. They're competent!!! Thanks for doing a great job!!

I met with Marie Gerlach MS PAC.... She is amazing!!!! She took time with me.   I have been sick for two years. She suggested a new medication and within three days I feel amazing!  I love that she does not throw meds at you.  She tackles one illness at a time. I would highly recommend her to anyone I know.  She is kind and   listens.  She will be my doctor for life!
