With more than 15 years of experience in East Texas, Dr. Patel specializes in arthroscopic knee and shoulder reconstruction, including ACL repairs, shoulder dislocations and complex shoulder procedures. He has a special interest in shoulder surgery and is committed to using advanced techniques to help patients achieve the best outcomes.

Outside the clinic, you’ll find Dr. Patel enjoying sports with his sons, watching soccer and football and spending time with family and friends.
