Patient Comments
Always a good visit with Dr Desai […]
So happy we found Dr. DeSai, he is kind, thorough , explains things and you dont feel scared anymore. Lung doc in exton was always making us fearful and ordering more tests. So thankful to find Dr DeSai
My doctor is very understanding listen very well to what I'm saying, very compassionate, and also gives me an answer for the questions that I am concerned about, always include me in everything.
Dr. Desai is excellent.
Listens to the patient and it explains everything and will repeat the answer when asked
