Mahir Patel, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Dermatology Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 347 MOUNT PLEASANT AVE STE 103, West Orange, NJ, 07052, with a listed phone of (973) 571-2121. NPI 1417191917 was issued on 04/28/2009. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Patel most recently submitted to CMS rather than a vetted directory listing, which is why patients should always confirm the practice is still at this location before scheduling.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 566 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 230 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $116K in drug spend, split 10% brand-name and 90% generic by claim count. These figures capture only Medicare Part D, commercial insurance, Medicaid, and cash-pay prescriptions are not included, and any drug-beneficiary cell under 11 is suppressed by CMS for patient privacy.

Dermatology Physician is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 14,610 enrolled providers across 53 states and an average of 729 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
