Jineet Patel, MD

Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine

Diagnostic Radiology

Hey everyone, my name is Jineet! I moved around a lot as a kid before my parents decided to settle down in Cary, NC. I went to Cornell for undergrad and then MCV/VCU just down the road in Richmond for medical school. I then completed my transitional year in Blacksburg. I became familiar with Charlottesville during medical school having visited numerous times to take advantage of the wineries, food scene, and the surrounding nature. During the application/interview process, the excellent training, great location, and friendly culture and camaraderie really made UVA the perfect fit for me. I am very excited to be doing my residency at UVA and moving to Charlottesville!

Outside of work, I love to follow my favorite sports teams, try out new places to eat and socialize with friends, spend time with my fiancée, and travel. My two cats, who I adopted as kittens in medical school, also find a way to keep me busy!
