Patient Reviews
Oct 18, 2022
Dr. Desai is a kind and caring doctor. He was helpful in prescribing the right medication for my migraines. He is interested in his patients' personal lives to determine what could be contributing to their illnesses. I like that he cares and wants to learn more about me personally, instead of simply diagnosing me and leaving right after a brief interaction.
