Patient Reviews
Apr 20, 2024
Dr. Desai is very friendly and polite. He let me 'tell my story' before starting medical details.I have a GI condition since more than 10 years that is quite unusual, but not critical. It is a slight bleeding that is compensated by Iron supplements. Dr Desai immediately knew the name of that condition, and treatment alternatives. None of my other doctors has been able to name it! Dr Desai informed about other conditions that I should be aware of, and what I should do to avoid future GI problems. He is a true expert - while still able to clearly inform in layman terms!
