Raja Roshan, DO

Dr. Raja is not only unprofessional but his behavior is inexcusable! We went to Dr. Raja’s office to seek answers as to what could be causing our daughter to experience frequent and irregular sharp pains in her head. The doctor recommended a MRI of the brain and MRI of the spine be done. We did so immediately. We waited the 72 hours for the results (as directed by Steinberg), confirmed the results were delivered to the doctor’s office. We waited and waited, waited, and waited! No response from the doctor or his office. It took 4 phone calls from me to the doctor’s office, and an additional week with NO return call from the doctor to interpret the results of the tests. I took matters into my own hands, drove down to Steinberg to get copies of the results and again attempted to contact the doctor in order to have him (the person with the M.D. attached to his name) read, interpret and deliver the results. These are 2 very important and expensive tests. The very least the doctor (who insisted on the tests) could do is to read and deliver the results. Pediatric Neurologist? I think not. Quack is more like it. The indifference, the unimportance, the lack of professionalism, the absence of service… This is the most stressful and ridiculous experience with a doctor’s office, our family has ever had. I get a phone call from my primary care physician immediately following up on a simple blood test. The neurologist can’t fit it into his busy schedule to read, and call a family back with the results of a BRAIN and SPINE MRI? You have got to be kidding!
If nothing else, at least call with the results. Make a suggestion as to what to do next?
I know what our next step will be– finding a new pediatric neurologist.
Dr. Raja should be ashamed of himself.

Extremely nice very knowledgeable Doctor. Thank goodness he is here in Las Vegas… It may take a while for an appointment but it is definitely worth it because he gives a correct diagnosis and he works hard to find the correct medication needed.

We came to Dr. Raja after having terrible experiences with another neurology group in town. It did take a long time to get an appointment, but it took a long time at the other place as well and they were rude, we had to wait 3+ hours in the waiting room and they just did not care about my son. Dr. Raja is worth the wait. He spends time with each of his patients, is thorough and really cares. He had seen my son for one visit when a couple weeks later I needed advise on a Sunday. He promptly called me back, knew who my son was and knew his medical condition. I feel confident that Dr. Raja is the best peds neurologist in Las Vegas – you can try the other guys but you will be disappointed.

So after waiting 2 months, it has been determined my son has benign roladic epilepsy. The good news kids usually grow out of, the Dr was very polite and explained BRE in very understanding way. My only complaint now is we had a ⁹⁄₁₇ appointment for follow up and the office has rescheduled ¹⁰⁄₂₀ due to dr will be unavailable for the ⁹⁄₁₇ date. There really needs to be more pediatric neurologist in Las Vegas. I’ve given the 3 stars on the Dr. Knowledge and way he communicated with my son. Downfall is clearly the waiting and scheduling process.

I had a terrible experience at this office. The summer after I turned 16 I fainted on three separate occasions over the period of one year, all of them having valid reasons why (heat, dehydration/​low blood sugar, and having blood drawn.) My mom thought it was best to be checked out, because it scared her. We had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. When we were finally able to get an appointment, the female (Ahmad). Asked me what happened and I explained to her the situations. Without another world she pulled out a sheet of paper and told us that it was her «duty» to alert the DMV immediately, (even though none the times i fainted were close to when I was driving or even when I had a licence) and that most likely they would send us a letter. You can imagine my broken heart when i received a letter in the mail about the «seizures» I apparently had, and that my licence must be surrendered. We knew this was not true, and fought to get my licence back, going through an MRI, EEG (45 min). EEG (24 hour), and EKG. Finally after about 2 months I was cleared of the misdiagnosis of seizures. I did see Dr. Raja on one of my visits, he was kind and thorough when going over my test results. The EEG tech were very kind and gentle on both occasions. That woman who initially met with me was rude, inconsiderate, and never properly examined me. ALSO when I initially scheduled my 24 hour EEG they scheduled me out 3 months. My mom had to fight with them to get me in sooner. Office staff were not knowledgeable about paper work such as their HIPPA form giving each patient their rights and never produced one to us when we asked for it.

We had a completely different experience than the other reviewer and perhaps it is because he was our fifth neurologist. We love Dr. Raja. He is slow getting you back in the exam room (but if your child has special needs and you see specialists in Las Vegas, this is the norm), but it is because he is thorough. He sits and actually discusses the issues with you. I would say the minimum amount of time we spend with him is 10 minutes and that is just on follow-​ups. I recommend Dr. Raja to any parent who has had to experience the only other child neurology center on Desert Inn and is frustrated with not only the office staff but the lack of compassion and understanding provided by the doctors at that office.

Dr. Raja is a nice enough guy but he is SLOW in getting you in for an appointment and slow in getting you back for a follow up to work you had completed.
If you are looking for a diagnosis from him for a condition be prepared for it to take many months.
