Purvi Desai, PA

I’m a physician assistant (PA) with more than a decade of experience. I see patients at Memorial Sloan Kettering Basking Ridge in New Jersey. I’m trained in skin cancer screenings and perform biopsies of suspicious lesions of skin cancer.

I also treat people for skin cancer and for lesions that could turn into cancer. I treat precancerous lesions using photodynamic therapy. This is a type of non-invasive treatment that uses light energy to kill cells that are cancerous or could develop into cancer. 

I have a passion for dermatology and a strong commitment to building community among Advanced Practice Providers (APPs). I am committed to using my dermatology expertise to help our patients for many years to come.
