Dr. Raj has been my primary care doctor for years. He is always upbeat and has a positive attitude, but the main reason he is my doctor is that he is very knowledgeable and bright and he still has the passion to learn and stay up to date. He is one of those rare doctors that really listens and though he is upbeat he can quickly focus in and you can see that he is looking at all the angles to give you the most informed information and diagnoses, usually backed up with tests.
