Dr. Shyamsundar Rajan, MD

I waited for 45 minutes and the doctor still hadn't started with the two patients who were already waiting before I got there. No sign of service anytime soon. Left and will not be coming back.

Yes, it is true that Dr. Rajan does show sufficient informational capacity to convince one that his practice is that of M.D. However, if certain pronouncements of his are not merely intended to deceive, he shows poor judgment. As much as I really wanted to believe that this doctor would use his knowledge to do good, instead he showed himself as just another self-serving “Profiteer-of-Pain” (the more he can prolong or increase his patient’s pain, the greater his capacity for profit). What part of the Hippocratic Oath to which licensed doctor’s must pledge, that of “Do No Harm”, does he not understand? Or did they not teach this wherever he went to medical school? His aversion to prescribing anything controlled which conceivably could place him under routine government verification or oversight, leads me to believe he is evading scrutiny. Perhaps he has no license to practice medicine, or has overstayed his Visa and is hiding his illegal status. What purpose does this so-called doctor have in prolonging suffering and refusing pain relief, other than to make the patient desperate for remedy through questionable, dangerous, and expensive surgery, for which Dr. Rajan no doubt receives a payoff or “kickback”? Is it really any surprise that research shows that 90% of the surgeries done in this country have been found to be unnecessary? Rather than arriving at a correct medical diagnosis based on the totality of applicable facts, here is one who is all too eager to adjust whatever “facts” he may select, to fit any theory or pretext which can serve the profit motive. To add insult to the suffering this doctor needlessly causes, he will sanctimoniously claim as pretext for refusing medication that it is to “prevent addiction.” This, for a prescription which a previous doctor, a reputable one, considered as benign, non-addictive, and of a strength not that much more than aspirin. A pain relief medication the patient had taken in the past as needed, on average of one tablet every four days, and from which he never showed any signs of dependence. My selection of Dr. Rajan was without a check of his credentials or ratings by former patients, and turned out to be a mistake. Here is an arrogant jerk of a doctor who treats anyone who would trust him as either a drug addict, or hopelessly gullible.

Dr Rajan is extremely arrogant. He seems to think he is all knowing, all encompassing. If there was a GOD of doctors it would be him.His bedside manner is atrocious and patient concerns are wasted on him. He will merely do what he thinks his best; simply ignore or not even acknowledge input from patient or their loved ones.My mom has been his patient for quite some time and he has frequently misbehaved with me (her only daughter).I don't even know if changing doctors is worth it; seems they are all sort of alike.

Great overall experience at this office. Even better yet, they referred me to a local diagnostic imaging facility/office for a mri yesterday at (Capital Imaging in Bethesda, MD) for my shoulder, and it was the best experience I ever had! From having my own dedicated parking spot number on arrival, curb side assistance, no wait time on arrival, they bent over backwards to make me feel comfortable, and the staff and tech were all very courteous, great job Dr. Rajan S & Capital Imaging.
