Patient Comments
Dr. Desai is such a good doctor. When he comes into the exam room, he has already read through any updates on my Virtua MyChart and knows about recent hospitalizations, test results, etc. He is the only specialist that I see that does that. I feel fortunate to have him on my health-team.
Excellent care
Dr. Parag Desai explained to me the how to manage my condition.
Doctor Desai was kind concerned and explained next step etc. Very pleased
Excellent MD and outstanding staff
