About me

Dr. Patel is an endourologist specializing in minimally invasive surgeries treating enlarged prostate and kidney stones. After growing up in Malaysia, he moved to the United States to complete medical training. He completed an endourology fellowship in Northwestern University to learn Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP), a procedure which allows for minimally invasive treatment of enlarged prostates with excellent long term outcomes. He is also passionate in caring for patients with kidney stone disease, working on both the surgeries to remove them, and medical therapies to prevent them. Outside of work, Dr. Patel enjoys hiking, travelling, and spending time with his wife and cat. You can also find him trying out restaurants around Portland, which he believes is the best food city in the country!

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network. 

Visit our billing and insurance page for more information.

  5. Great listener. No urgency to rush the appointment. Wanted all questions and concerns answered before finishing the meeting.

  6. Dr. Patel provided outstanding care to me throughout a very difficult medical journey. Before surgery, I experienced urinary retention, required a Foley catheter, and performed self-catheterization for several months. Dr. Patel carefully explained the treatment options, performed a successful HoLEP, and gave me back the ability to urinate on my own. He takes the time to answer questions, explains things clearly, and treats both myself and family members with kindness and respect. We are deeply grateful for his expertise and compassionate care.
