Dr. Desai explains things in a very clear and easy to understand way. She knows her patients well and does not make the patient feel rushed. She offers great, relevant advice and is very well versed in current studies and learning opportunities. She understands the emotional toll that cancer takes and uses a holistic approach to her care. Couldn't say enough good things about Dr. Desai. She's the best practitioner I have interacted with in over 45 years.
