Dr. Raja is absolutely PHENOMENAL! He is truly one of my top favorite doctors EVER. I was pretty nervous when I showed up for my first appointment with him with the fear that I will have to have surgery. After meeting him and talkShow moreing to him for a moment, a sense of calm overtook me. Even after he had made clear I would need surgery, the fear never returned! I recently had surgery and, again, the fear I felt before surgery was overtaken by a sense of calm while talking to him during pre-op and his bedside manner is one gazillion percent TOP NOTCH! Heck yeah, I will recommend Dr. Raja over and over again! Dr. Ali Raja, you are magnificent, unforgettable and I thank Neurologist Dr. Tatyana Stepanenko for referring me to you! ~LaCondia B
