Patient reviews
I had a cyst surgery with Dr. Raja.. he is very kind and funny.. the nurses were also okay.. however, regarding cleanliness, it was not very good.. they only cleaned when told to, hehe.. the cupboard had ants and wasn't wiped often, nor were the chairs.. they only wiped them when I was about to be discharged.. and the bathroom was not very clean, the sink in room 1702 was clogged.. thank you.

He is a very kind, caring, and professional doctor who always takes the time to explain everything clearly and answer all our questions. His communication is excellent, which made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the treatment process. What impressed us most was his genuine compassion and thoughtfulness.
