I chose to work with City of Hope because of the values it embodies which include excellence, value, integrity, morality, which are values I highly admire and live by.
Pritiben Patel, M.D., M.B.A., cares deeply for her patients, and for her community. She's a fixture at health fairs where she regularly donates her time and skills. Rated a “Top Doctor” by the International Association of HealthCare Professionals, her goal is nothing less than “to change the nature of medicine” by making more medical resources available to more people around the world.
A native of Southern California, Dr. Patel has known since middle school that she wanted to be a physician. She received her medical degree from American University of Antigua College of Medicine and continued her training at St. Lukes' University Health Network in Phillipsburg, New Jersey. Among her many skills, Dr. Patel specializes in pain management through biofeedback.
Dr. Patel looks forward to a long affiliation with City of Hope, a place she calls “more than just a hospital, it is a community which encompasses the body, the mind and the soul. I am grateful and immensely joyful for having joined an organization which I immensely respect."
