He published the ''Journal of Surgical Radiology'', which closed in 2013 despite reportedly having accrued 50,000 subscribers, because he "ran out of time." The New York Times described his performance at the Texas hospital as problematic and having "antagonized some supervisors" to the point that they asked for him to be expelled, but he passed the program. Dr. Hazim Safi, the department chair, said "I intervened and he graduated", attributing the problems to personality, not skill.<ref name="offord"/> From July 2014 to May 2016, Desai was a vascular surgeon at [[Southern Illinois University School of Medicine]] in charge of surgical simulation as vice chair of research.<ref name="chic_">{{Cite web |title=''Medical Scientist'' MD-PHD UIC newsletter vol 16 issue 1 |author=Roberta Bernstein |work=chicago.medicine.uic.edu |date=25 September 2015 |access-date=6 June 2020 |url= https://chicago.medicine.uic.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2017/07/MSTP-Fall-2015.pdf}}</ref>
