Dr. DeSai is truly an excellent, caring doctor!
I am so grateful for my doctor he is always respectful and very professional. And he has been very supportive to me and he always listens to me and that means a lot. Whenever I reach out to him he always responds. I think that anyone would be blessed to have him as their doctor.

Dr. Desai was clear and precise with his explanation of my condition and efforts we will try moving forward to attempt to abate or get ahead of it.
This Dr.I felt responded very well in his treatment especially since I experienced. Something I think was a bad flu approx. Lasting 5 weeks it seemed to be lingering.while I was home prior to this appt. I was very frightened with what ever this bad cold or flu was due to The Dr treated and told me in-between visits when having a problem like this how to contact the hospital before my apt. When I'm in need of help . Pluse he treated the problem right there and seen that the meds I needed was sent to my pharmacy by the time I got home they were at my pharmacy.. The Nurse was excellent as well in this case.
