“I wanted to specialize in oncology because it is an opportunity to combine state-of-the-art medical care with the empathy and compassion that are central to truly helping people… and that you and your loved ones deserve. Through my 10+ years as a cancer specialist, there have been significant changes in oncology, and now I’m able to offer better treatments with fewer side effects. The product of these changes, for me, is the fulfillment that comes with seeing more and more patients cured of their cancer or living longer, higher-quality lives with the people they love.”

  • "Dear Dr. Desai, I was so grateful my office visit was a time of hope and not fear. I did not leave in anxiety or depression. I met hope and joy from the patient time and care you gave me. I know I have to continue to do what the doctors have advised me to do to be as well as I can be. This is from considering all the hospital visits and procedures I have had to go through . My back is broken but I am walking and going to exercise classes. This happened from the encouraging care I have been given from professional staff like you. My primary knew I got good care from you almost ten years ago, so she sent me back for safe keeping. God bless you all. Please stay the way you are. Having Dr. Desai and all of his staff is a rare gift to help me age in good care and not as much stress and fear as other places. Thank you for explaining my situation I was not ready to hear. Instead it was explained carefully by the doctor with a new future medical student to hear how my care is in a careful and controlled environment . Thank you , Gwendolyn Roberts"
