Everything was great
There is a very efficient office staff and Dr. Patel was easy to talk to about the reason for my visit.
Rakesh Patel, DO, is a highly-skilled, board-certified endocrinologist at the Endocrine and Psychiatry Center in Katy and Houston, Texas. Dr. Patel loves to care for patients, especially those with complicated cases.
Dr. Patel graduated from Houston Baptist University in Texas with his bachelor’s in biology and mathematics. He later studied osteopathic medicine at the University of North Texas Health Science Center and continued to his internship and residency at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston. Dr. Patel remained there for his fellowship in endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism.
Patients come to Dr. Patel for a variety of reasons due to his exceptional reputation. He has found success in caring for Type 1 and 2 Diabetes patients, patients with non-specific symptoms of weight gain and fatigue, and other endocrinological conditions to help them get their lives back on track. The reason he gets these challenging conditions under control is that he takes the time to listen to each and every patient. Dr. Patel truly believes in the quote: “If you listen to your patient long enough, they will tell you what is wrong.” He loves solving complex mysteries.
Dr. Patel has been practicing medicine since 2003 and is the proud owner and founder of the Endocrine and Psychiatry Center. His staff is renowned for their caring demeanor, and the office boasts a family atmosphere.
Dr. Patel loves technology, developing medical recordkeeping software in the past and currently developing applications for better patient care at a reduced cost. When not at the office, Dr. Patel loves to spend time with his three kids. He loves photography and travel. You may even catch some of his photographs on the office’s walls. Dr. Patel is a proud Texan football fan who enjoys watching movies – but not playing golf. Dr. Patel loves sarcasm and humor, so if you are looking for a serious, boring endocrinologist, please do not see Dr. Patel.

Valerie is one of the easiest to talk to and always helps with coordinated solutions.

Marcella was great to work with . Learned a lot from her .
Valerie is very thorough. friendly and understanding.
2nd visit… Valerie Butler is nice but she’s ready to pop. My visit was calmer than last time. However no one told me I needed labs before this visit, so it wasn’t a very productive visit. I will know it for next time. (First endo I had I came in and did labs) Got pricing on labs so I know what will be charged should my insurance not pick up the costs. I got a $600 bill from my PCP lab which I fought for 6 months before I paid $186 which was still too much. Anyways, it was quick check in, in the room and out the door before you could say Jack Rabbit
First visit with Dr. Butler went well look forward to future visits
Pleased with visit.
Wonderful attentive staff
Dr Valerie carefully listen to you and provides you all the information you need, as a patient makes you feel confident that your treatment and medications will help you to achieve your goals!!

Everyone was friendly, little wait time and not rushed ith Dr. Butler.
Everyone was very nice and I would recommend it.
Receptionist/greeter was one of the friendliest I've encountered. The lab techs were very friendly too. Although this was a short visit.
I was very satisfied with our meeting for my diabetes check-up. I hope my AIC keeps going down & I'm feeling lots better at my old age. See you after you return to work after your baby is born (girl). Vivian E
