Dr. Harit Desai

Dr. Desai grew up on Long Island as the son of a dentist, and his passion for dentistry started in childhood while visiting his father’s practice. After getting his bachelor's degree from New York University, Dr. Desai attended New York University College of Dentistry, where he graduated in 2004. He then continued to further his dental education by doing a General Practice Residency program at Flushing Hospital, which he completed in 2005.

From 2005–2007, he gained invaluable experience working alongside his father, Dr. Bhadresh Desai, who has over 45 years of knowledge and experience in dentistry. The knowledge his father imparted allowed Dr. Desai to open his practice earlier in his career and learn from the start that the most important thing in dentistry is treating patients with respect and compassion.

Dr. Desai acquired his current practice in 2007. The practice was previously known as Cornejo Dental Office and had served this community since the 1990s. It is important to Dr. Desai to  provide the best care possible for his patients. As a result, he continues to further his knowledge and has taken more than 500 hours of continuing education in dentistry. 

Dr. Desai lives on Long Island with his wife and daughter, and he loves traveling with his family during his free time.
