I am a Cardiologist who works with my hands and on my feet most of the day. I sustained a significant shoulder/neck injury that prevented me from doing my job. The pain was unbearable and I went to a PT for help with no avail. I considered surgery as I was unable to lift my arm at all and was concerned for something serious. After I worked with Dr. Patel, I not only regained complete strength in my arm, I was able to use his techniques to strengthen it even further. His experience and dedication to his work goes unmatched and would highly recommend!

A couple of months ago I reached out to Dr. Patel to help with knee pain that I was having from continuously running. I couldn’t run or walk without feeling pain for a couple of weeks. Dr. Patel helped me get back to recovery through a targeted back exercise! What made recovery with Dr. Patel better and more helpful than going to a normal PT was the convenience. Dr. Patel and I were able to schedule 1v1 Telehealth/Virtual Visits calls AND I was able to directly text Dr. Patel real time whenever my knee symptoms started to act up again. In 2 visits I was able to get back to full recovery! Today I have been able to continue on my running journey and feel great!

Thanks to Dr. Patel I learned specific stretches that helped target problem areas I have having due to my favorite hobby, breakdancing! Because of an injury I sustained, I was unable to turn my head to the right to its fullest extent. Dr. Patel took the time to measure my movements and points of pain. Then he showed me a routine of strengthening techniques and stretches that helped improve my range of mobility almost immediately while getting checked out. I was a bit nervous when going in for my check-up but Dr. Patel was very welcoming and made me feel at ease. Also, to continue to help, he sent videos to some of the stretches he showed me while doing the check-up and different ones that would help prevent future injuries and strengthen the problem areas. Overall I had a great experience and am grateful for Dr. Patel's experience and guidance in improving my issues.

When I was hit by a car in January 2019, I was lucky to be able to walk away from the scene. However, I had lingering back pain that impacted my daily life. I tried resting, changing my activities but the pain persisted. I needed professional help. Dr. Patel completed a comprehensive evaluation to diagnose what was causing my pain. He then gave me specific interventions to complete daily. Within a few days I was able to notice a difference. It’s been over 2 years since my accident and I no longer have any back pain thanks to Dr. Patel.

I'm a Dentist and for over 10 years I have had chronic lower back issues that I always thought were from skeletal issues and not stretching. I went to many doctors who sent me to other physical therapists in the past. I have also gone to chiropractors thinking that could help. After having more consistent back derangement I went to NWM ortho and got in touch with Dr. Darshil Patel who has completely changed my life. It's been 3 weeks and I'm able to wake up without tightness or back pain and I'm doing exercises without limitations. I simply can't thank him enough. Super easy to schedule as well.

I had a shoulder injury that resulted from doing an exercise the wrong way. I could not lift my arm or reach in any particular direction. My issue was the ball in my shoulder was scraping the bone. Dr. Patel worked a miracle on my shoulder. I would cry when I even touched my shoulder, try to lift something or reached for something. My care at first was difficult! I was determined not to have surgery. Dr. Patel was very patient with me. He had a plan of action to get my shoulder to move better and how it should move. My shoulder is in great shape now. I can now lift, reach objects without strain, reach over my head without pain and lift and carry babies/toddlers with out pain. Dr. Patel does awesome work! I feel that Dr. Patel cared about my wellbeing. It was a plus that my goals and fears was included in the plan of action to get my shoulder to heal.

Dr. Patel has worked with me on multiple occasions, the latest being with shoulder pain. After almost a year in pain, I reached out to Dr. Patel about the issue. He scheduled our session on a Sunday. The visit began with a thorough evaluation of the issue and some exercises. My shoulder pain went away a few days after our session. Not only did Dr. Patel address the issue, but he made it a point to check with me on how I was feeling after our session. I would highly recommend scheduling a session with Dr. Patel for all of your physical therapy needs.

Dr. Patel helped work through a lingering knee issue. I was hesitant about remote video visits, however the sessions were very clear and convenient. After going to multiple other PTs with no improvement, Dr. Patel was able to identify the correct issue and provide the right therapy. He was patient and thorough in not only the instructions but why they are necessary. I've seen improvement immediately and will continue to use Dr. Patel in the future. I recommend him to everyone!!!

Trust me, I worked with this fellow at the highly-regarded RIC/Shirley Ryan AbilityLab - I can tell you from personal experience that he really knows his stuff, relates to people very well, and helps them achieve great outcomes. He is a physical therapy rock star!

I severely sprained my ankle while playing volleyball. I was not able to put any weight on it. Dr. Darshil helped me rehab the ankle and I was able to dance at my buddy's wedding in less than 3 weeks!
