Dr. Desai grew up in Orlando, Florida and attended both undergraduate and medical school at the University of Miami. She completed her residency at the University of Miami’s Jackson Memorial Hospital which is also where she met her husband.

Dr. Desai has a special interest in international health, family planning and adolescent gynecology. She provides care for women in all phases of life from fertility planning to pregnancy and into menopause.

Pessary Insertion / Removal

Your staff again exhibited professional competence; the removal and cleaning of the pessary was performed quickly and smoothly. Thank you. Specifically, Dr. Williamson takes her time, and always asks if there are any other issues/questions that she might answer. Very professional.

Annual Well Woman Exam

Katie Henderson, NP is absolutely fabulous. She is one of the most caring practitioners in the medical field.

Review for Katie Henderson, WHNP-BC

Office Visit / Follow-up

I was highly satisfied with my recent follow-up visit with Dr. Hudson-Fraley because she took the time to genuinely listen to my partner (male) and my concern about a birth control that would prevent pregnancy and lessen the severity of the trauma of my monthly cycle. Dr. Hudson-Fraley was honest, forthright, warm, and kind. She is a provider I would recommend women--especially those with disabilities (I have autism and severe mental illness)--begin to build a trusting relationship with for OBGYN care.
