Viray Patel, DDS

Born in Massachusetts and raised right here in Mesa from the age of four, Dr. Viray Patel has deep roots in the greater Phoenix area. He attended Dobson High School before heading to Creighton University in Omaha, where he earned a double major in Biology and Psychology — a combination that gave him a deep appreciation for both the science and the human side of patient care.

He went on to complete his Doctor of Dental Surgery at Creighton University School of Dentistry, where his passion for helping people feel comfortable and confident in the dental chair really took shape.

For nearly 20 years, Dr. Patel has been proud to call the Arcadia area home for his practice, building lasting relationships with patients and families who trust him with their smiles year after year.

When he’s not caring for his patients, you’ll likely find Dr. Patel out on the golf course working on his game or sweating it out at Orangetheory Fitness. He believes that taking care of yourself — whether it’s your smile, your body, or your mindset — makes all the difference, and he brings that same energy and commitment to every appointment.
