Dr. Anup Patel, MD

Best Hand Surgeon! Dr Patal is so honest and caring and comes with a great knowledge of his field. I broke my wrist and traveled over 1 hour to go to his practice as he came highly recommended to me by my daughter an ICU nurse. He found that I didn't need surgery as this would surely have been the result with a closer hand surgeon. He saw that my wrist could be mended via casts and was able to assure me that surgery would have been a much longer recovery- and a greater cost to my insurance. I never had to wait long for my appointment- as I was always taken right on time. Very unusual for any doctors appointment- let alone a surgeon! You can't find sure honorable doctors anywhere! I highly recommend him for any problems that might need surgery. He was a god- send! Thanks again, Brooke

Dr. Patel was professional, straight forward and a great communicator. He was direct about my issue and comforting in his prognosis without being condescending. In short one of the best doctors I've ever seen.

Dr. Patel is the best of the best. Happy I came here as a second opinion. He is honest and very well educated. He made himself available like no doctors do by providing me his email to ask questions after my appointment. This is rare to find today.

Dr: Anup Patel successfully did a very complicated tendon extensor transfer on my left hand.At one point I though I've had lost two of my fingers. Thanks to him, I have regained a lot of my movements.

Full Disclosure: I am a physician and went to OHSA based on the long time reputation amongst many in the field. I had a consult with Dr. Patel for my carpal tunnel and was impressed to see a surgeon with a serious approach and bedside manners. It is rare to find a surgeon with such amazing CONSISTENT results and care. I HIGHLY recommend him.

Dr Patel is both an outstanding Dr and Surgeon. After 2 years of searching for a doctor who could determine why I was getting "hammer smashing' pain in my finger, I was sent to OHSA. After review, I was referred to Dr Patel from one of his peers (Dr Brian White) to perform surgery on my finger to remove a tumor (by removing a finger nail). Dr Patel reviewed my MRIs and discussed to possibility of delaying the surgery until we had an MRI with contrast. His instincts were spot-on. It turns out the tumor could be removed from the bottom of my finger which also meant 3 less months of recovery. Dr Patel performed the surgery and removed my suchers within 2 weeks. I am down to just bandaids and the pain from the tumor appears to be gone. I would highly recommend Dr. Patel to anyone needing a diagnosis or surgery on their hands/fingers.

We came to doctor Patel off of google reviews. Two years ago I had to replace my 22 year old saline breast implants because one had deflated. At the time of consultation the doctor was personable and we proceeded with the surgery. However three days after surgery we noticed something was wrong. The left breast that suffered the deflate did not match the right breast. It had a slant at the bottom that looked as if the breast was cut short. The surgeon dismissed our concerns and said I was being too picky. Every day for two years I looked in the mirror and those words stung in my head. Knowing full well that there was something wrong. Upon searching for a second opinion we found Dr. Patel as mentioned from his stellar reviews. After hearing our case and concerns as well as observing the issue he stated that if what we were looking for was to fix that problem it could be dangerous. But by replacing the implants that seemed smaller than what I originally had with a larger one, there was chance he could correct the issue. He ran through all the objections, and medical terms. Speaking in soft tones and attentive to our questions and my nervousness enduring another surgery, without a guarantee they would come out looking the same again. Prior to surgery Dr. Patel phoned to run through his procedure again as well as address anymore questions we may have had. Day of surgery he was composed, and confident while still advising us there’s a chance it wouldn’t be perfect and it could be due to anatomy. The procedure took two hours. After surgery he spoke with my husband and gave him details of having to reconstruct that entire breast pocket. Apparently the prior surgery wasn’t done adequately. The breast pocket didn’t have sufficient space for the implant, giving the impression it was cut off. He also repaired the ugly scar under the other breast. He remained in contact with follow up messages. Today I’m approximately a week and two days post op and I couldn’t be happier. He got the size perfectly as well as they absolutely match. It brought me to tears because where one doctor reflected his responsibility onto me by being over obsessive, this doctor validated what I knew all along. Dr. Patel’s reputation proceeds him and I couldn’t rave about him more. Surgery is a scary thing and one that should never be discounted! In our opinion he is the best in Central Florida. Extremely professional, empathetic, and outstanding bed side manner. I’m blessed He took my case and feel very grateful for it. Thank you Dr. Patel.

Dr. Anup Patel and the staff at Orlando Hand Surgery Associates are the definition of professionalism and skill. I was injured while out of town in Atlanta on a Friday with a resulting very serious wrist fracture, and was seen at OHSA as soon as I returned the next Wednesday. The fracture required surgery (Distal Radius ORIF) and Dr. Patel immediately made me feel at ease with his knowledgeable and efficient assessment. He was clear about the seriousness of the fracture and scheduled me for emergency surgery within two days that following Friday (a week from the injury). His dedication to my treatment and sense of urgency were a relief. I would note that he called me the night after my surgery despite a very loaded day of work for him and made sure I understood how my procedure had gone and what I should expect afterwards in terms of healing and pain management. I cannot say enough about the quality of care I received during follow up visits by him and the associate staff. Dr. Patel is a clear communicator, relatable, and compassionate. His additional practice of plastic surgery were an unexpected bonus when it came to the resulting healed scar. I cannot imagine a better path through surgery and healing than the one I experienced.

I had three failed surgeries when I went to see Dr. Patel. He was unlike every other surgeon starting with his background which I should always look into I have learned. He was not pushing aggressively on surgery and really wanted to help heal me without it. Also unlike other surgeons. He had a mess to fix and eventually we did go through with surgery with him which has given me more relief than I’ve felt in years. I would recommend him to anyone. He is the best plastic surgeon and hand doctor I have come across.

Dr Patel saves my finger. He is an excellent surgeon and very professional.

I am a professional wrestler at WWE. I broke my eye socket during training and needed an orbital floor fracture surgery to fix it. Dr. Anup Patel was recommended to me by my ophthalmologist. From our initial consultation, i knew he was the right person to perform the surgery. He was very open and honest with me about the realities of my surgery and what I could expect from it. I respected that. He also made me feel comfortable before, during and after the procedure. The surgery was a success and i am now preparing for my return to the ring. I think one of the things that stood out most to me was how accessible Dr.Patel was. I freaked out the first night after the surgery and at 4 am, I called a phone number that he gave me in case of emergency. I was surprised when Dr. Patel himself answered the call and was there to calm my nerves and assure me that everything was cool. I really appreciated how accessible he was in that moment. He genuinely cares for his patients. He’s a great guy and very good at his job. A great experience overall and I recommend him highly.

Just wanted to say, Thankyou Dr Patel I truly feel very comfortable in your diagnosis. Highly recommended!!

Highly recommend for a variety of reasons! Having successfully used Dr Patel’s services before I thought of him again when I had a bit of an emergency. I very “unglamorously” lost a silicone tube up my nose (it is inserted in the nose to help with breathing at night, but it is supposed to be attached to another one and they are supposed to both go into the nostrils. I sadly decided to cut them apart and use only ONE in the blocked nostril. Turns out ....that was a very poor decision :/ My little lone-tube traveled way up into my sinus cavity and was irretrievably lost. ) Dr Patel’s office got me in as soon as they could and Dr Patel took on the challenge and would NOT be thwarted from the mission! He found it! AND he got it out. With no pain at all to me. Amazing. And quite the adventure! Trust this man ???? He is awesome!

I had a Redo of my breast augmentation with Dr. Patel two months ago because the first time I had surgery with another surgeon the implants were not placed right. I went to a top surgeon in town but when I met Dr. Patel I knew he was different from consult to after. He gave me tons of information on what his plan would be to help and then once I had surgery he followed up with me until I was fully healed. He gave me his direct contact info and went above and beyond to make me comfortable. This was so different from the first reputable doctor who only saw me during my appointments otherwise I had to talk to his pa. Very happy with my results and would go to Dr. Patel again.

Not a sugar coating type of surgeon. He is honest and really good at what he does. Orlando’s secret as I was looking to go to other surgeons, but this doctor is not pushy and helps you on his own without pushing me and my questions to a nurse or a PA. He made so much time for me and even suggest I not do a procedure I thought I should do. If you want quality go to Dr. Anup. I am so happy after consulting with pretty much every plastic surgeon I chose him.

I needed carpal tunnel surgery on both wrists. I was in tremendous pain for several weeks before each surgery. Dr Patel completed surgery on first my right and later my left wrist and my left index finger. Within a very short time and along with following Dr. Patel’s physical therapy instructions, I experienced no pain and full range of motion with both wrists and hands! I highly recommend Dr. Anup Patel without hesitation to anyone needing hand surgery.

Dr. Anup Patel performed De Quervain's surgery on my left wrist several months ago. My wrist was at the point that I could not practice on my guitar as well as limiting my workouts at the gym. And turning door knobs with my left hand was completely out of the question. The surgery went exactly as he explained it. I followed his post operative instructions and I am now back to normal and participating in my hobbies as if I never had an issue. And a plus is that as a plastic surgeon, the scar is not at all noticeable. He is a very skilled and compassionate surgeon that I cannot thank enough for getting me back to normal. But my experience with Dr. Patel continues. Several weeks ago I had a home gym workout related accident whereby I fell which resulted in a laceration on my head that was a three way directional wound. I also had lacerations on the bridge of my nose and my thumb. I was concerned with the highly visible location of the wounds on my head and nose. I knew that I would need the skills of a plastic surgeon and immediately sent a picture to Dr. Patel. Although this was a Sunday, he responded within an hour and set me up for reconstructive surgery. The wounds are healing up nicely and I will have minimal scaring. If there is a need for further work on the head injury then I know I will be in excellent hands with Dr. Patel for any additional reconstructive surgery. I can already say that the laceration on the bridge of my nose is not at all visible due to his plastic surgery skills. I cannot thank Dr. Patel enough for the immediate response, incredible and personalized care and concern that he provided to me. His responsiveness to my immediate needs goes well beyond the normal standard of care that I would ever thought was possible. And a big thank you goes out to his nursing and administrative staff for their professionalism and incredible and caring attitude that they provided to me. Lastly, it goes without saying that I highly recommend Dr. Patel to anyone needing medical treatment and surgery for hand and wrist issues as well as reconstructive plastic surgery for injuries.

Dr. Patel performed surgery on my left index finger, and it was quick, with minimum after pain. I appreciated his scientific and caring approach. He explained exactly what the procedure was going to be, and any risks associated. He later showed and explained how the procedure went; a resounding success. Dr. Patel not only completed the procedure successfully, but he called me at 7 AM the following morning, to enquire how I rested through the night. I told him, "With a little discomfort, but otherwise fine". This to me showed great care for his patients. Thank you Dr. Patel for your expertise and caring concern. Roy

I went in expecting a older surgeon and in comes Dr. Patel. He is the best of the best and I cant agree more with all of the reviews professing how well he treated them. He demanded perfection for me and gave me detailed instructions also making himself available beyond anyone else has ever done. He is such a great resource to my family I dont know how he does it all.

I had a significant tissue deficit with my shoulder. Hardware was exposed Jeopardizing loss of my right upper extremity. Dr. Patel does aesthetic surgery as a plastic surgeon and he routinely performs complex reconstructive cases that are sent by other physicians. Using the principles of flaps and some innovation, Dr. Patel used my pectoralis major muscle to salvage my shoulder. My operation was filmed by @adventhalth and they will share soon. These types of operations epitomize “ortho-plastic” surgery. I am so grateful for Dr. Patel and OHSA.
