Dr Deshmukh is a superb doctor. Both the knee and shoulder replacement I had from him yielded an easy recovery and a quick turnaround. I would have given five stars, but I consistently wait over an hour to see him every time I am scheduled. I consider that disrespectful, and I don’t understand why it happens routinely. If that were fixed, I would give him 10 stars.

He was great, even though I waited over an hour to get xrays and then at least half hour after that to see the doctor.
