No complaints here. Only compliments. Dr Rajjoub and his staff are amazing. They are courteous, patient, polite and professional at the same time. He was informative and thorough.This is my second surgery with Dr. Rajjoub and because the first went well and I because of that I asked if I could have the referral go to him.

In 2017 I had a ruptured appendix, and he saved my life because it had flipped over and leaked and sepsis had started. I began seeing him shortly after that for my thyroid nodules. He is very thorough teaches you, shows you the images and explain things to you. He doesn't do unnecessary procedures, but his thoughtful about what he orders. When I saw him today and he heard that I had osteoporosis and I was on prolia immediately went back into my ultrasound and checked my para thyroid He explained how the pair of thyroid was an important component in osteoporosis. Then ordered some bloodwork to check to see how my parathyroid was functioning. I had my blood work the same day right after my appointment. About two hours later, I got a call from Amelia, his nurse, telling me that doctor had reviewed everything and my parathyroid was just fine. Exceptional care!
