I saw Dr. Desai, who was extremely knowledgeable and thorough. We began our session earlier than the appointed time and spent every moment of our session assessing my symptoms. he provided both medical and supportive counsel and made both pharmaceutical and natural remedy recommendations. Possibly the best GI consultation I've ever had.
