Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice. Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure.

Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372.

5.0 Mar 13, 2025 She is the BEST doctor
5.0 Mar 11, 2025 Dr. Desai always spends time to make sure all my questions are answered and my concerns are addressed
5.0 Mar 11, 2025 It feels like I have an old fashioned GP who knows me and remembers me when I see her! Before I would go to a practice and would just see whoever was available and I never saw the same person twice so this is such a nice experience. Doc Desai inspired me to start my weight loss journey and has encouraged me to keep going even when I didn't see a lot of loss at first. She's so friendly- I drive 25 minutes away to see her.
5.0 Mar 8, 2025 Very caring and knowledgeable. Listens to my concerns and answers me.
4.9 Mar 8, 2025 I like Dr. Desai, but it's very difficult to get an appointment with her if something comes up suddenly.

4.1 Jan 10, 2025 Fine
5.0 Jan 5, 2025 My female friends and family constantly complain about the health providers that don't listen to us so finding one that does is valuable. This goes for our dentists, ob/gyn, ENT, metabolic, etc. Wr all have different issues to deal with and having a doctor that takes the time to get to know us and treat us REMEMBERING our family histories, preferences, and greeting us like we actually matter is immeasurable in a provider. I have referred coworkers, family, and every lady I talk to when I get my hair cut or my nails done to Dr. Desai.
