I believe the key elements of a successful patient-physician relationship are excellent communication, trust, openness and empathy. I strive to build these elements with my patients and together create a plan for investigation and treatment of their medical problems.

Good
Refreshing experience overall. Finally a specialist who listened and was thoughtful on approach and getting to root cause of my pain.
If I had to evaluate Dr. Cooke, she would receive an excellent rating.
Dr Patel Cook made me feel at ease and calmed me because of my fears of doing a colonoscopy. She even gave me alternate ways to prepare and what to drink.
Dr. Patel was kind and courteous. She listened to my concerns and worked with me for a solution. I appreciated feeling heard and how vested she was during the appointment. Overall I am extremely happy.
