Patient Reviews
Apr 11, 2020
I switched to Dr. Desai because he was in my health network and, like others on this page, I was tired of not seeing my primary care physician at Columbus Clinic, the 3 hour waits, and extreme difficulty getting though on the phone, phone calls, follow-up, etc. I went into my first appointment with a negative attitude. I was pleasantly surprised. He is very kind, takes his time, explains, and follows-up. A pleasant and unexpected surprise.
