Patient Reviews
Mar 31, 2018
Dr. Desai is a very good doctor and I would absolutely recommend him. He listens, works with his patients and their parents well. He responds to questions and will take his time even though he’s very busy and there are always patients waiting. Dr. Desai genuinely cares and that’s a rare find in this day and age.
