Patel also has an office in Leesburg. I have used him 3 times and highly recommend. Not super cheap though, if that's a factor.

I used Communale for years. Is Patel as good as Communale in terms of being “pilot friendly”?

I live near BWI and go to Dr Chopra in Glen Burnie for the past four years. He sees a lot of airline pilots.

Is Dr. Kessler in Gaithersburg still active? I'm new to the area and looking for an AME, and I've reached out to him and his assistant Shelby several times with no luck. Any tips from someone who's seen him before?

Can I ask who you ended up getting your medical? I just moved to DC and would like to renew mine. 1st, no EKG. Thank you!
