I travel over an hour to see Dr. Raj because he is undoubtedly the best Hematologist/Oncologist around. Compassionate provider. Takes time, explains, and ensures you understand your medical condition.

I highly recommend this practice. Everyone who works here is exceptional in caring for patients and goes out of their way to listen and help patients. I am so blessed that they have been able to help me and continue to support me. Dr. Rajendra is the best and truly works with the patients using his in depth knowledge and patience to get to the right outcomes. Every single staff person here treats patients very respectfully and ensures patients have what is needed - I often get follow up calls post appointment to check in or to address something else they thought of. I’m so grateful for their continuous support.
