My experience with Dr. Patel and his team of esteemed colleagues at the University of Utah Medical Center, the Huntsman Cancer Center and the Moran Eye Center collaborated flawlessly to treat my very rare and serious cancer: sebaceous/meibomian gland carcinoma.

Utah is extremely lucky to have immediate access to some of the world's best surgeons.

I am grateful to those who worked so hard to bring these world-class facilities to our state; to those who continually recruit the caliber of medical professionals we enjoy and support staff members too numerous to name.

I am forever indebted to Dr. Patel for orchestrating treatment swiftly and successfully and for the marvelous reconstruction he performed on my face.

I have related my entire story on a post on Dr. Patel's Google Plus page if you would like to learn about the journey we took together.
