It is hard to give Raia a review since he only spent 10 min or less with me & my husband. He never examined me, did not greet or smile. He asked no questions. Simply said that there was nothing to be done. Arrogant, rude, dismissive, I live in a community with a Facebook page for residents to make or ask for recommendations. You can be sure that I will be spreading the word on this doctor. Also on yelp, Nextdoor, and multiple medical review sites.

Dr. Raia was very nice. He sat down and took the time to explain carpal tunnel and the procedure. Made me feel pretty comfortable and it felt like he cared!
