    On my consult in Feb 2020 he was very knowledgeable and understanding. He explained everything in detail and we came up with a treatment plan for my Stage 4 Endometriosis. Dec 17 2020 I had my surgery. My surgery started 3 hours late because of something that happened within the previously surgery which I 100% understand. However he talked to me for 30 seconds before my surgery and all he said was what kind of surgery he would be performing. After the surgery he went home instead of debriefing me on what happened. I was not told where my endo adhesions were located, if any reproductive organs had to be removed, if they ended up doing a scope, no biopsy results. I wasn’t told when I could return to work, etc. All I was told was that he would call me 4 days later on the Monday. Well I never recieved that call. My postoperative sheet said I could reach him at a phone number that was incorrect. I finally found a number and spoke to someone at the hospital who told me they would pass the message along. I have little faith that he will contact me. I am beyond frustrated. Anyone with endometriosis knows how important it is to know exactly what happened to their body especially moving forward. I can not stress enough how amazing his staff has been to me but as far as Dr. Rajakumar I am very disappointed with the bedside manner and the transparency of treatment.

    I saw him for the first time today and I expressed to him that my daily pain caused me to not pursue my dream job (nursing) and that it makes it so that I can’t drive alone for long (due to fear of blacking out from pain, which happens often). He said that he wouldn’t operate on me because I hadn’t “exhausted drug approaches” despite having been on every type of bc in the book and that he would lose his medical lisense if he operated on me because it would be “unethical”. I asked at what point would it be ethical to operate and he said that “a major life event would have to be affected by the pain” (having kids, which I’m not even sure that I want). I feel that losing jobs and having to chose a new career path are major life events, but he didn’t agree.

    He got visibly upset when I told him that I ultimately wanted surgery after he told me about my medication options and after repeating the medications that I can take he became silent and then left. His resident brought me the prescription papers and I asked if I should book a follow up appointment and he said that “Dr R would contact me or whatever” (yes he said “or whatever”). I am going to try the medication he prescribed me, however I am going to begin looking for a new specialist.

    I wish every doctor was a helpful, knowledgeable and kind. Dr. Rajakumar does an amazing job explaining the cause of symptoms, possible resolutions and everything in between. He listens and answers all questions. He’s also a very skilled surgeon. I’m so grateful for him.

    This was the best experience I have ever had with a physician. He took the time to explain to me everything he was doing and why. Also while using very technical terms he still managed to make sure that I understood everything he was speaking about. He gave me various treatment options and also suggested that I do my own research before I decide what route would be best for me. I would recommend him to any woman with ongoing pain or issues. Well worth the year I had to wait to get it.

    Stage 4 Colorectal Endometriosis. I was referred to Dr. Rajkumar by Dr. Ungar in June 2019. My appt was in December 2019 with a surgery wait time of approx 8 months. Polite and respectable physician, he didnt waist my time or his with treatment options based on what is important to me – quality of life.

    I have never left an office feeling more hopeful! Endometriosis is so different from person to person, it has been frustrating trying to find answers. Dr Rajakumar is very knowledgeable, willing to listen, and is not just about surgery. He is worth the wait list time, for sure.

    I have been referred to Dr. Rajakumar and have not had my 1st appt yet, but he and his office are amazing and so friendly. They answer questions and help point me in the right direction while I wait to see him and it is so rare to find a specialist that is willing to do that. I am beyond thankful.
