About Arpan Patel, MD
Arpan Patel, MD joined The Iowa Clinic to be part of a multi-specialty medical practice. Working with primary care physicians and surgeons allows for a more collaborative environment and ultimate transparency in patient care.
Originally, Dr. Patel completed his residency in anesthesiology but quickly found he missed the follow up other physicians had with their patients. He refocused his specialty to pain management where he was able to obtain that same continuity of care. He considers implementing treatments and seeing patients receive functional benefits the most rewarding part of his job.
Dr. Patel moved to Iowa because he enjoyed his fellowship experience at the University of Iowa. Living here has taught him the true meaning of kindness and the importance of family values. In his free time, he enjoys reading interior design magazines, expanding his passion for cars, and spending time with his wife.
