Through this Dr. Patel can develop long-term relationships with her patients.  Dr. Patel is a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians, Texas Academy of Family Physicians, and Texas Medical Association.  When she is not taking care of patients, Dr. Patel enjoys spending time with her two young children and husband and traveling.
