Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

She’s amazing! Friendly, kind, professional. I’ve been going to her for 5 years. She did my cataract surgery as well as annual check ups!

Wonderful Experience!
My night vision was failing & fonts seemed to be shrinking by the minute. A friend recommended Dr. Raja for Ophthalmology care & I am so glad she did! I have poor vision & have worn glasses or multi-focal contacts since third grade. It could be overwhelming when considering the number of choices one has with corrective surgery. Dr. Raja listened with compassion & understanding to my lifestyle needs while considering the health & medical aspect of my individual case. Her "sound recommendation" was to begin by removing the cataracts in my dominant eye & replace it with a lense for distance & wear cheaters for reading. Her recommendation was SPOT ON. The surgery was easy, & the follow-up care has been wonderful! I can see better now than I ever have, & can't wait for the second eye to be treated! Dr. Raja could have recommended a more expensive treatment, but instead she recommended what was best for me!

Devastated
I had a cataract repair and it destroyed my close vision. She refused to consider a different kind of lense for a better chance to see because iy might not perfectly see close....but any close vision would be better than not focused at all. I can see well far.

Dr. Raja is my new eye doctor, as of today. From the moment she greeted me, with sincere eye contact. I felt complete trust in her. She was amazingly knowledgeable and confident, without ego, and I intend to send my entire, large family to her. THANK YOU DR. RAJA, and to your office staff for taking wonderful care of me. Mary S.

I took my 83 year old mother to Dr. Raja. She was patient and kind and listened very well. She did not push surgery but offered it when Mom was ready to handle cataracts.

Dr. Raja takes her time with your appointment and asks good questions. She is very kind. She spent extra time and went out of her way to research something that was very important to my vision.
