I like Dr. Bhatt. He spends lot of time with his patients which is rare. The wait times are long if you come when recommend by UW automated scheduling.
I was pleasantly surprised by how closely the doctor listened to me. He also gave me options about how the examination would go - highly unusual.
Exceedingly competent and concerned. Aware of my needs fromprior visit 2 years ago.
What was striking for me yesterday is that the doctor inquired about the speech therapist that is working with me and my comfort with them. I thought this was interesting and yet afterwards I realized with such an intimate thing, such as speech and communication that this relationship with the speech therapist was paramount. I am grateful that the speech therapist I'm working with and I are so compatible and that they to listen to me and give me great tips on how to utilize my voice considering the challenges that are going on right now I'm thankful for Dr. Bhatt's having thought of this and taking this into consideration for positive outcomes.

Dr.Bhatt was concerned about my condition, trying to make me more comfortable.
Dr. Bhatt was excellent at taking time to listen to me, take my questions and provide answers, and ask his own questions. I appreciate when a medical provider takes that time with a patient and doesn't come in eager to rush out.
My POA/nurse/cousin who accompanied me to this appointment said it the best. In a text she wrote: "He really is pretty amazing. And he obviously looked closely at your chart before seeing you and was there to listen to you. And he is so collaborative to bring [...] in for her recommendations as well. Thank the Lord for such a good doctor!"
