Dr. Deshmukh is an exceptional physician!!! His knowledge, experience, expertise and his “ bedside manner “ are unparalleled!!!
As a retired physician, having trained in Boston like Dr. Deshmukh and having received the Massachusetts Outstanding Educator of the Year award, I was very fortunate to have my wife evaluated today by Dr. Deshmukh.
We appreciated very much his understanding and recommendations for her condition!
Thank you!
