Terrific Doctor. My condition turned out to be minor, but initially very scary. He was very encouraging, patient, caring and professional. 1st rate

We have been working with Dr Raisis since my husband was diagnosed with GBM over the summer. We have been very impressed with his knowledge, professionalism, and most importantly surgical technique. He also has the most genuine caring attitude of anyone on our medical team.Our only knock against Dr Raisis is that we do occasionally wait a long time in his waiting room! However, he always takes as much time as is needed to discuss our situation with us, and we never feel rushed. He was also very attentive to my husband following his surgery. So those things outweigh the occasional waiting room delay.

He did surgery on my mom. I was very satisfied with the Dr in answering all the question I had and he always called me back and answered any question that I had. He took good care of my mom. i would go back to him

Dr. Raisis spent a great deal of time with me, going over my condition. He also consulted with several other doctors about my unusual situation. I look forward to a long Dr/patient relationship.
