  • Advice on sleep and exercise to keep energy and focus up

This hands-on, supportive approach can help your teen feel seen, heard, and in control of their health.

What issues can adolescent care address?

Teen years can bring a mix of physical, emotional, and social challenges. Adolescent care helps spot and manage common concerns, including:

  • Acne or other skin issues

If you’re looking to help your teen build a strong foundation for lifelong health, call the Nile Family Medicine office today or schedule an appointment online to get started.

Dr. Patel was fully engaged from the second she walked into the room and wanted to be certain she understood all of my health concerns. I have never had a physician take the time to allow me to go into detail and then respond only after fully understanding my specific symptoms and medical history. She also follows up exceptionally well. I drive almost an hour to this office and will continue to do so without complaint!

After giving birth to my first child and having a rough delivery, I had a lot of health concerns. Dr. Patel took her time with my husband and I, answered all our questions and addressed all of our concerns with care! She is truly AMAZING! Thank you for ALWAYS going the extra mile!

Dr. Patel is the best physician I’ve ever had. Her bedside manner is rare! She actually listens, never rushes, and because of that she’s caught things other doctors missed. She’s thorough, honest, and friendly enough to make even hard conversations easy. The bottom line, my life has changed because of her care. I feel better, I look better, and my quality of life is in a completely different place than before I started seeing her. 2 of my friends see her too, and we rave about her to each other. she’s the doctor we all recommend and say deserves a bonus. Any practice would be lucky to have her and I hope she’s not just being recognized but also, too rewarded for the iconic and exceptional care she provides consistently.

I have been with Nile Women’s for many years, so I was excited to learn that they have a primary care office. I have seen Dr Patel twice. She is very kind and thorough in her explanations. She asks questions to get down to the root of things instead of just treating symptoms. She has a holistic approach which I love and I think that’s the difference in the licensure as a DO vs MD as well. I look forward to my appointments and I look forward to seeking my primary care needs here in the future.
