\u201cI can\u2019t tell you how many times Dr. Patel has saved my life,\u201d said Mr. Robertson. \u201cHe is the smartest doctor I have ever dealt with across all specialties. The hospital\u2019s cardiovascular program has meant so much to me and my family personally that we were inspired to make this part of our legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n
