Three minutes in the room total, never asked how I was feeling, never asked about symptoms. Spent 2 1/2 minutes talking about my cholesterol only. I felt like he was very condescending to me and never answered one of my questions in the manner that I could fully embrace. I would not come back to see him or and trust my healthcare to someone who is so completely disinterested. Push medication on me did not fully explain or go into details about medication and said make an appointment for one year and he left the room. I will not return to see Dr. Desai.

He is very knowledgeable, but his degree makes him the dr, and your concerns are unimportant because he knows best.

Following residency, he pursued a dedicated Cardiovascular Translational Research Fellowship at Loyola University, Maywood, IL, where his research focused on sarcomeric remodeling in patients with long-standing atrial fibrillation. He then completed his Cardiovascular Medicine Fellowship at Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood, Illinois.
Dr. Desai went on to complete an Interventional Cardiology Fellowship at Houston Methodist DeBakey Heart & Vascular Center in Houston, Texas, and further subspecialized in Advanced Adult Structural Interventional Cardiology at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas.
