Very caring man with a good beside manner. He seems to really care about his patients. He takes his time to explain the procedure he is going to do and listens and responds with any questions or concerns the patient or family members may have. He's excellent. I will ask for him if I ever need another surgery for sure. He knows how to limit the pain after surgery which is a definite plus.

He is a amazing surgeon. Good beside manners. He did a great job with my surgery. He greeted me at the OR with a great smile. When I told him my son wants to talk to him over the phone before the suegery, he right away got the # and talked my son over the phone before and also after the surgery. If I have to have an elective surgery, I will definitely choose him as my surgeon.

Dr. Rajjoub is everything a doctor should be. He is pleasant, thorough and very competent. He has a positive bedside manner; he makes patients feel like they are important and that he cares for them and wants great outcomes for them. Next month will make the 3rd time he has performed a surgical procedure on me. I have the utmost faith in his abilities and will request him again in the future if I need further surgical attention.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care.
