Oh my goodness. We really liked Dr. RAJA and his staff. He took time to explain things to us. He was so kind.

Explained everything in detail that I needed to know

From the moment he walked in the room he had the best bedside manner. He answered every question without making me feel like I was ignorant. He broke everything down for me so I could understand our game plan, surgery and recovery expectations. He came to me highly recommended and I now see why. Wonderful ,helpful staff too!

EXCELLENT SURGEON!!!

Very caring Dr took time to explain all that was needed to get the best result. Liked his staff also. Very pleasant visit .

Dr. Raja is the best neurosurgeon hands down. He will tell you in plan language what is wrong and how (we) can fix it and what to expect after the surgery and for the rest of your life. His staff is also first class and I would not recommend another surgeon in Arkansas for your neurological needs.

Extremely knowledgeable and pleasant doctor who addressed various solutions to help me with my problems. So far his medical advice is helping.

Diagnoising and making sure you understand whats going on with your condition. Giving you the time and option to decide best option to preceed with care plan. Reassuring you that he will give you the best possible care in his ability. He first told me that the same càre he gives me; tnat it is the same he would give to his own mother.

Dr. Raja answered all my questions and wanted to make sure that fusion surgery was my best option. As he put it, you want to make sure this is what we need to do since you’ll have to live with it the rest of your life.

Went over everything asked a lot of questions listened to everything I said explained my choices and where he thought we should start! Very happy with Dr. Raja.

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 talking 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

Great

First visit to Dr. Raja. He listened to my concerns and have hopefully come up with a plan to help me.

Very helpful and informative my doctor seems to have the best interest of the patient in consideration for the care that's best for the patient.

DR. RAJA IS A DOCTOR THAT YOU CAN TALK TO AND IS INTERESTED IN HELPING YOU. HE WANTS YOU TO TELL HIM WHERE YOU HURT INSTEAD OF HIM TELLING YOU WHERE YOU HURT. I THINK HE IS A VERY NICE PERSON.

After again waiting more than 60 minutes past my appointment time to see Dr. Raja, we had a good conversation and came to some conclusions. I believe he cares about his patients and that his office is not good at scheduling patients such that they may be seen within 10 minutes of their appointment times. This needs improvement. The staff is very friendly.

Very professional. Answered all my concerns .

I really like how he was caring and listened to me and how he is trying to find our how to help me and get me fixed

Dr Raja saved my wound and my spinal stimulator. He really made me feel like a valued person and I’m so grateful for his kind and caring heart. I have nothing but positive things to say about this Dr and if I need any further surgeries or treatments I’ll be contacting him again.

I was Dr. Raja's first patient of the new year and I would say what a great start to my new year. The staff is wonderful and I can't say enough good things about Dr Raja. He was very thorough and asked a lot of questions. He is very friendly and his goal is my better health. Not pushing pills or surgery. The facility is nice and easy to find, not to mention great parking.

Dr. Raja is the best surgeon I've ever met. Thank you for caring so much and fixing my back.

Surgery was a success and Dr. Raja even put my tattoo back together so well, you can't really tell there is a scar. Staff very friendly and helpful as well.

Dr.Raja is Amazing! He was great with my husband's pituitary tumor and my daughters back issues. When our pcp asked if we had anyone in mind to see before being referred to different neurosurgeon we proudly said Dr.Raja! He's just great all around, young or old!

It always take 30 to 45 minutes after my appointment time to get in the exam room. Then another 15 to 30 minutes before I see Dr Raja. He is very nice and understanding. The staff is just great.

I am very happy with dr. Raji and Rachel.It was a great experience

Loved the office, but the parking wasn't that great. University Ave has bad parking in most facilities. I just Love Dr. Raja. I've been a patient for 3+ years now. I will continue to have him as my neurologist.

1st visit and I already feel confident that Dr. Raja is an excellent doctor. He explained my issue and treatment plan in a way that was easy to understand and He took the time to listen to me. I'm excited about my treatment plan and look forward to the day when I'm pain free.

My experience was amazing. Dr. Raja is so kind and gives you time to express your concerns, fears and any questions. I feel very safe with him should I have to go further with my treatment plans.

N/A

Did you send. Jury excuse letter yet

I have been truly impressed by Dr.Raja. I have multiple health problems and he has taken them all into consideration regarding my treatment. He always explains everything and answers my questions.

Very pleased

Attentive and caring. Listened to all my issues and addressed my concerns. Thankful for his service.

Excellent

Dr Raja is both caring and compassionate. He is very professional.

Dr Raja very professional and courteous, he explained a treatment plan I’m convinced it’s the right way to proceed

IT WENT VERY WELL. I WAS SATISFIED

Dr Raja was very thorough took time to explain everything to me I have confidence in his knowledge and skills as neuro surgeon I would recommend him to anyone who needs his expertise

ConFuse in car accident, neck has herniated disc bulging disc back has herniated disc can't walk straight can't perform any type of work well, stress out not getting no answer; doctor done confuse the hell out of me saying I was injury and in bad shape before my car accident I need help on this

It was my pleasure meting the staff. Everyone was very nice, n professional. Dr Raja was very thorough, compassionate and professional as well. He explain everything in the terms that I could understand. He made time to answer any questions I had. I would recommend Dr.Raja to anyone. Very positive feeling atmosphere. You need a neurosurgeon. I believe he’s the one to see.

Good person,genuinely cares about his patients. Very intelligent would highly recommend him if your having back problems.

The Lord is working in your life as well , shaping you into His servant . Your hardships and setbacks have a place in His plan and He's using them to train you for what lies ahead . Dr. Raja and his wife both are needed in this worlds plan for us too continue 'to co exist on this earth in a heavenly Spirit . May my Farther Bless them with mercy and grace for all of there days .

Very caring doctor takes care of his patients. He listens to you and finds the problem. His nurse's are kind and sweet.

Getting unto parking area was terrible. Decor of facility needed to be upgrade. These things have nothing to do with Dr. Raja’s expertise as a neurosurgeon but I felt that I might possibly be in the wrong office. I thought someone with the excellent reputation he has should work in a more pleasant and comforting environment for both he and his patients.

Stuff works better now

Had a wonderful experience and the staff was very courteous and professional.

Dr. Raja explained everything to me in detail.

Eventhough our first meeting was very brief, my judgment of Dr. Raja is very positive and I feel confident in a successful future professional relationship. James Jackson, Ph.D.

I went in to get a CT scan I was in and out very nice

Dr. Raja seems to be in a hurry when I see him. But all my doctors are that way.

He is always good

He seems to legitimately take interest in his patient. He clearly goes through the findings of diagnostic test and explains why he wants to pursue a particular course of treatment. He is a good listener and has a good "bedside" manner.

Dr Raja and his staff are very pleasant and through. I would definitely recommend his expertise to any of my friends or family.
