Dr. Desai is the best doctor I've had in my over 6-decade life! Competent, patient and a great communicator. She is providing ongoing treatment for me, for an acute condition. But, today, I saw her for a special visit because I was concerned about some symptoms. As it turned out, the symptoms were caused by my lack of compliance to instructions about using artificial tears. I can follow directions, but was a little remiss during a relocation I was doing the past couple months. Dr. Desai was patient and understanding. She also explained more about the condition and its relationship to symptoms. I do better when I understand the WHY in addition to the WHAT! Thank-you Dr. Desai for another excellent office visit!
