Dr. Desai is a fantastic dermatologist. I had the privilege of meeting him when he was a dermatology resident and, even at that stage in his career, he was a shining star. Clinically, he is a compassionate and capable doctor. He is also a patient advocate, taking time out of his extraordinary busy life to personally go to Washington, DC to meet with the members of Congress on behalf of his patients. In summary, it is an honor and privilege to have Dr. Desai as a colleague.
