Patient Reviews
Feb 01, 2022
Absolutely fantastic Doc, he truly does care for his patients and is very thorough in his work. I have no doubt that if I look up Health Professional in the dictionary this man's face would be front and center. In all seriousness though, i dont think i can write review glowing enough to praise this man, all I can say is that if you have any doubts about his proficieny or his passion for his craft, put them aside because he truly is one of the best around.
Thank you for sharing your feedback about Dr. Rajesh Rethnam, MD.
