How likely are you to recommend Dr. Rafla?
He’s great. I moved here from out of state and searched for a good doctor with broad experience and current education. He met my specific needs. He has always been on time and fully accessible in sessions, plus email, phone. He respected my previous doctors’ assessments but helped make adaptations to improve sleep, anxiety, depression. I did leave an excellent team and came here with high expectations. Dr Rafla has exceeded my hopes. I’m healthier for having worked with him.
