Doctor was nice listened to my issues patiently. But i recieved my test result very late. And they ordered my test to out network labs. The staff is very rude and doesn't guide you clearly Bieng a new pateint . Staff is just not interested.similarly the second time when My husband visited the doctor's response was good but he didn't received any prescription after his lab test was done for more than two weeks. Although we were able to see his report on pateint portal.. The lab test was for general metabolic profile.

I've been seeing another PCP to try to address some issues for a while and feel like i'm getting nowhere - after one appointment with Dr. Desai I feel like I have a solid plan in place to figure out what's going on.
