    Off the very first intersection with the young lady (Kat) who answered the phone I felt comfortable. She was very patient and explained everything I need to know as a new patient. When I came in any staff that I made eye contact with spoke and made us feel welcome

    I can’t express and rave how awesome Dr. Patel and his office staff Kelly and Kat have been. Dr. Patel actually cares about his patients and he is very skilled and dedicated to making sure his patients are completely happy and leave his office with a winning smile! Kat and Kelly are the friendliest, kindest office staff I’ve ever met. Everything has been hassle and worry free. If you’re looking for any dental care you will have a very difficult time finding a better dentist and staff around! Thank you so much Dr. Patel, Kelly and Kat for making my daughters dental experience so easy!

    We are extremely pleased with Dr. Patel. We did not have a good experience with the previous orthodontist. Dr. Patel is very thorough, friendly and comforting. He took the time to explain everything and had my daughters best interest in mind. Bridget was also instrumental in helping my daughter understand the "why's" of brushing and flossing, especially when using a retainer. None of this was explained to us previously. We are very fortunate Dr. Patel and Bridget have taken over my daughters care. I highly recommend this practice if you want the best outcome as well as having a Healthcare team make an impact on a teenager, for good lifelong habits.

    After a challenging few years with Suburban Orthodontist, we are so thankful for the positive transition to LakeStone Orthodontics. Our daughter has finally completed her orthodontic treatment and is now able to have her braces removed, which is a huge milestone for our family.
    Dr. Patel has been exceptional. He is kind, knowledgeable, and truly prioritizes his patients’ well-being. His professionalism and genuine care have made a meaningful difference in our experience.
    Kat, the practice manager, has also been wonderful. She is consistently friendly, understanding, and supportive, especially considering the difficulties we faced prior to the transition. Her compassion and professionalism do not go unnoticed.
    From the moment you walk through the door, the entire staff is welcoming, caring, and attentive. We are very pleased with the level of care we’ve received and would confidently recommend LakeStone Orthodontics to anyone seeking orthodontic treatment. Our son will absolutely be continuing his care with Dr. Patel.
    Thank you to Dr. Patel and the entire LakeStone Orthodontics team.

    We have been patients of this orthodontic practice for the past 5+ years with 2 children in treatment and 2 more future patients. The transformation under Dr. Patel’s care has been so much better than it was before he started this new practice. Before he took over, our experience was extremely inconsistent and often frustrating. There was a lack of communication amongst the office staff and the previous orthodontist and the patients Since Dr. Patel stepped in, it has been the complete opposite.

    Dr. Patel is transparent, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in the well-being of his patients. He takes the time to explain every step of the process, answers questions thoroughly, and makes both parents and kids feel comfortable and informed. It’s clear he cares deeply about creating a positive experience and delivering excellent results.

    Although he had a lot of “undoing” to do when he took over the practice, he has handled it with professionalism, integrity, and a clear commitment to improvement. We are extremely happy with the care our children are receiving now and highly recommend Dr. Patel and his team!!

    Dr. Patel is very attentive and caring. If you have a issue he immediately puts you at ease and assists with concerns. His team is absolutely great and caring as well, they are always so pleasant. My previous scans had a missing far back tooth when I have a tooth there (previous scan from previous owner) Dr. Patel agreed with me that tracking would be fine but that missing tooth would not track with the rest and scanned me for new trays when previous Owner/Dr. Wouldn't and said it was fine to wear with a missing tooth. (I dont like to talk about previous owners however due to the circumstances and how it played a roll in my ortho process i am) I was so happy that Dr. Patel took my concerns seriously, agreed with me and promptly got me new trays. Fast, efficient, and accommodating all before christmas. Highly recommend them!

    I had a great experience bringing my son to Dr. Patels dental/orthodontic office! The entire team was so welcoming and patient, and they took the time to answer all of my questions without ever making me feel rushed. Their bedside manner is truly outstanding — kind, professional, and reassuring from start to finish. The service was excellent, and I felt completely comfortable throughout my visit. Highly recommend!
