"Now you cannot get into your primary care doctor even for serious issues and are only allowed to see an np or pa... There is no ability to see you even for 5 mins for a referral. These cost cutting measures disregard patients and I am really tired."
— LocalityBiz Review"Dr Patel and his staff are amazing. The UT health system is awesome. Sometimes there is a wait but the care you receive is beyond worth it."
