He is one of the only physicians in Colorado Springs to have this designation. 

This national designation — developed by ABOG, ACOG, and the ABMS — highlights physicians who perform a high volume of minimally invasive procedures and meet rigorous standards for surgical skill, quality, and ongoing professional development. To achieve this distinction, Dr. Patel completed the required specialized training, documented more than 100 minimally invasive surgical cases in a 12-month period, and passed the comprehensive assessment administered by ABOG/ABMS. This designation reflects his commitment to providing women with the safest, most effective, and least invasive surgical options available.
