She is an excellent doctor and a pleasant and thoughtful professional
September 12, 2017Robert M.Verified patient
I was very disappointed because I scheduled the visit as an Annual Pap at least two weeks out. The day of the appoint I receive a call letting me know that she does not perform GYN Exams. I was already in the parking lot. So I just did an annual physical instead. She was in the room less than 5 minutes. Took some lab work and was on my way. A week later I get a call stating that my Vitamin D levels were low and they would like me to come in for more testing. I requested a supplement vs coming in and never received a call back or supplement. Dr. Deasi had allot of great reviews online so I'm very disappointed with the service I received.

Dr. Desai is hands down the best primary care physician I have EVER seen. She always remembers pertinent details, greets me warmly and takes the time to truly understand my issue before wrapping up the appointment. The entire staff at this INOVA brand is a dream! Also, every time I've been in I've been seen either right on time or EARLY! Amazing. 5 stars all the way - highly recommend.

February 15, 2017Raymond M.Verified patient
Dr. Desai and the whole office was wonderful. I arrived early and was taken back right away. Dr. Desai is very personable and funny, and you can tell she really cares about her patients- she said demand to speak with her if the call center is giving me trouble because she always finds a way to work her patients in. It is also very convenient that the lab is on-site, and the results came back the next day.
February 21, 2017Tara G.Verified patient
Such a positive team! Highly recommend them.
