Kruti Patel, DO

Dr. Kruti Patel is a very good doctor. She's a firm doctor that cares about her patients. I was taken to Baptist hospital and I asked to see my heart doctor. She came to check on me multiple times. She wasn't affiliated with Baptist, so therefore she did it out kindness of her heart because she was not getting paid to come check on me. She is a doctor you can depend on to inform you of everything that's going on with you. She got on to me for smoking. I know smoke scent causes her to get headaches. So I told her I wouldn't smoke before coming to my appointment with her. She said " if you ca that for me, you should be able to do it for yourself.I I highly recommend Dr. Patel!! I have already refereed one family member. Give her a chance I didn't care for her at first. I now understand that what she says is out of love.

I am excited about my mother final planning to go see a heart doctor. She camed highly recommend by my Aunt. She explained that Dr. Patel is caring, firm, and will make sure you have every test to find out what is wrong with you. Then she will explain your findings of the test results with you. I read some of the other reviews and all I can say is doctors are human to. Did you ever considered she was having a bad day?

Avoid Dr Kruti Patel Cardiologist with CHI St Vincent at all cost. For whatever reason, my 82 year old grandmother was sent to her today. We still have no idea why. The receptionist asked her if she knew why she was there and said Dr Patel would explain it to her, but even at the end of her appointment, we still have no idea why she was there. My grandmother had to wait over an hour to see Kruti just for her to come in the room and start loudly exclaiming about the smell of smoke. She didn't care who heard or if she was embarrassing my grandma or not. The entire appointment was about how Kruti can't stand the smell of smoke and that she would "fire" my grandma as a patient if she didn't stop smoking. First of all, my grandma never asked to see her in the first place. We still have no clue who Kruti is or why my grandma was sent there. Second, she's 82 years old and if she hasn't quit smoking yet I doubt she ever will. Kruti didn't have a chart with her, didn't have a computer, and never examined my grandma but is changing 2 of her medications. How is that possible? My grandma has heart failure and kidney failure but you want to change her meds that have kept her stable for the last 20 years, but you know nothing about her medical history? You didn't even examine her! Not only does she not know anything about my grandma, we know nothing about Kruti. We immediately called her cardiologist (again not sure why her regular cardiologist sent her to Kruti), and told them to cancel the new medication orders and to cancel my grandma's appointment for December. We will NEVER see Kruti Patel again. She needs to work on her bedside manner or find a different line of work. We will contacting Medicare and ask them to deny the claim. The woman didn't do anything that warrants her getting paid. If she wanted to hear someone complain about cigarette smoke for 20 minutes, she could have found any random Karen at the local Walmart and saved time and money.

I was referred to dr.kruti patel by Dr Thomas wallace which has been my doctor for years, my first visit she took me off all my meds I been on for years, but me on new meds not explaining anything ,yelling at me ,and then I asked her what happens if I don't take the medication, she screamed at me I don't know. And she said are u going to take the medication or not ,I said I guess I have no choice, then on the phone she screamed at me asking do u want me to be your doctor or not and I replied well what do u think dr.wallace referred u .. Her beside manners are awful and as a heart patient she has no business being a doctor. And taking me off all my medications at high does she could caused me to go into cardiac arrest but body went into shock and the medication she put on has not helped and my pcp found me another cardiologist. I would not recommend this doctor to anyone..

I see dr Patel she is a very wonderful woman from her nursing staff all the way to her she took the time to help me with any questions I had would not leave the room until I understood everything her nurse calls me and keeps me informed with all my questions and concerns I love dr Patel no need to go anywhere else
