Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My daughter is 6 years old and she has been coming here since she was 2 months old. She has never had any health issues and we never had an issue with the office or doctor. My son is now 3 years old and he has been seen by Dr. Desai since birth. When my son was 8 weeks old i have still having a lot of issues with pain when breastfeeding. After doing some research and speaking with a friend (who is a dentist) we figured out that my son had a tongue tie and lip tie. I took him in to see Dr. Desai
