- After 8 years of infertility, recurrent miscarriages, failed IVF rounds, our pregnancy resulted in our baby being delivered. Raj cared for us during our high risk medicated pregnancy and was our consultant for our delivery. He was always available, attentive and incredibly responsive with care and treatment required, with a great secretary by phone and email. As a result of his care, I was able to stay calm during pregnancy and delivery. We are so grateful, staff all spoke so highly of him.
- Dr Rai helped us when I was going through many early miscarriages. He is very thoughtful and led us to the right treatment, direction. I am 35 weeks pregnant now and could not thank him more for all the support and professional help we received. Great dr
- Cannot speak highly enough about Mr Rai. The first appointment was deeply informative and left us feeling in control and clear about the pathway forward.
- Outstanding consultant. Impecable bedside manner, comforting but factual. Feel we are in the safe hands. So thankful to have found someone we trust in and regard so highly.
- It was the 1st visit and overall a very good experience.
- Dr Raj is an excellent physician. We were given solid facts with compassion. 100% recommendation from us.
- Dr. Rai puts you at ease as soon as you meet him. He was extremely helpful and supportive. Doesn’t try to overcharge and a bunch of services you don’t need (like other private doctors). His team is super responsive. Highly recommend for anyone trying to conceive or are pregnant.
- Very informative and thorough and we were made to feel comfortable from the moment we stepped through the door. Would recommend both the clinic and the doctor to anyone looking to truly understand the options that would give them the best chance to become parents.
- Dr Rai was empathetic and factual.
- Very friendly the doctor comfort and great equipment and nurses.
