Dr. Mehta truly cares about his patients, is patient in his questions and in how he listens. He's why I still see him even though I moved and it's not a 90 minute drive to his office. He's worth it.

As a result of a chronic condition, I now have a team of amazing doctors keeping me healthy. I acknowledge and appreciate them all - but Dr. Mehta is truly an exceptional provider. He is extemely thoughtful and incredibly smart - and somehow combines those traits with extraordinary patience, good humor, and humility. I have never encountered a better listener, or more thorough teacher. It is a pleasure and a privilege to be his patient.
