Mihir R. Patel, MD, is a professor and serves as chief of the Division of Head and Neck in the Department of Otolaryngology at Emory University School of Medicine. Dr. Patel started practicing at Emory in 2014.
A board certified head and neck surgeon, Dr. Patel focuses on minimally invasive surgical techniques to treat head and neck cancers. His interest in preserving functional outcomes for patients led to fellowship training in transoral robotic surgery (TORS) at the University of Pennsylvania. Prior to receiving TORS training, Dr. Patel completed a fellowship in minimally invasive, endoscopic skull base surgery at The Ohio State University Skull Base Center.
Prior to his journey into the medical field, he was a chemistry teacher in Brooklyn, NY where he dedicated his time to a population with scarce resources and tried to support the community efforts towards education with after-school tutoring lessons. Dr. Patel's shift to medicine was triggered by a long standing memory of a student he tutored who died from cancer. He is dedicated to research efforts in head and neck cancer genomics. He was a member of the Winship team that participated in the ECOG 3311 human papilloma virus (HPV) oropharyngeal de-escalation trial.
Dr. Patel is a graduate of Duke University and received his Medical Degree from University of North Carolina School of Medicine. He completed a seven year surgical Residency at the University of North Carolina Department of Otolaryngology with a focus in translational research. Dr. Patel then pursued Fellowship training in Extended Endoscopic Approaches (EEA) to the skull base at The Ohio State University Wexner Center followed by a year of Fellowship training at the University of Pennsylvania Head and Neck Oncology program.
