Jayesh Patel, MD

"As an orthopedic sports medicine specialist, my goal is to help patients return to the activities they love, from Division I sports to a round of golf at Holly Tree," said Dr. Patel. "I was inspired to pursue medicine by my grandfather's early passing from lung disease. This loss motivated me to choose a career where I could make a meaningful impact, leading me to orthopedics, where I help people overcome injuries and regain active lifestyles.

"I specialize in orthopedic sports medicine with a primary focus on arthroscopic reconstruction of knees and shoulders. My expertise includes anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions, shoulder dislocations and complex shoulder joint procedures, including shoulder replacements. I am particularly drawn to the complexity of the shoulder and enjoy helping patients regain optimal function through advanced surgical techniques.

"With more than 15 years of experience in East Texas, I am committed to providing my patients with the highest level of care, using innovative techniques and implants to achieve the best possible outcomes."

Outside of the clinic, Dr. Patel enjoys playing sports with his two boys, watching soccer and football and spending time with his family and friends. In addition to English, Dr. Patel is fluent in Gujarati.
