Shuchi Desai, MD Reviews
I have been a patient of Dr. Desai for several years and she delivered my first child in 2024. I had an uneventful pregnancy but started having issues at the 36/37 week mark and she intervened quickly. Ended up needing a C section which was quick and went smoothly - even my nurses at the hospital commented on how skilled she is with these procedures. Dr. Desai was compassionate and took great care of me throughout the process and I healed with no issues! It was definitely a scary few weeks, but I am so glad I trusted her with my care. I have recommended her to my friends as well. I had such a warm welcome for my first appointment from her staff and Dr. Desai was so friendly and welcoming. She had me come back after some concerns and questions I had and I was diagnosed with something and she helped me answer so many concerns I have had about my self and has truly made me feel so happy to finally have an answer and have a way to help fix/ reverse my diagnosis! I highly recommend her she is an amazing Doctor and very very smart!! Dr Desai is really an amazing Dr, she made me feel so comfortable and answered my end number of questions. Really recommend Dr Desai Dr Desai is knowledgeable about using Biodenticals. She helped me get my hormones balanced. She added testosterone and that made a huge difference. She’s patient and cares about your well being. Highly recommend Dr Desai recommend if you want to try Biodenticals. For peri menopause or menopause. Dr.Desai is very sweet! Since the moment I walked in she made me feel comfortable, she delivered my first baby girl which ended up being a c-section, (frank breached) it went quick and efficient, very professional thru the whole process. I will be coming to her for my next baby!!!! She is amazing!!! Dr. Desai is wonderful! My daughter in law and I both go to her and we both have nothing but nice things to say about her. She is patient, caring, knowledgeable and will answer any questions you may have. If I could give her 10 stars I would! Dr. Desai is a great doctor. She delivered my daughters baby and that is how I was recommended. I had such a great experience with her on my first visit and she will be my OBGYN going forward. She has great bedside manner and seems to really care about her patients. Dr. Desai is awesome. There is never any wait to see her and she really listens to her patients. She is very personable so discussing personal matters is comfortable and you can tell she just wants to help. We recently had a surgical procedure and the entire process was smooth, and literally painless. It was the fastest recovery time I have experienced, including less invasive procedures. I recommend her to every woman in my life and will be switching to her for my primary obgyn. ABSOLUTELY LOVE HER!! I am a very timid individual when it comes to an OB and the minute I met Dr. Desai I knew she was THE doctor. She is so genuine and really cares about her patients. I would rate her 10 stars if I could. I have been living in dallas for 4 years and a friend recommended me to this office. Didn't know who I would see but the first available appt on my day off was with dr. Desai. I was all smiles seeing her. She is so personable and made me feel so comfortable. I love how friendly she is but also she was a great listener to all my health concern . The office staffs were all very nice and helpful. The wait was not long. All testing as were done in office which was great! Clean office and rooms. I would definitely recommend this office and Dr DesAi to everyone
