Dr. Mehta is a caring, thoughtful, highly intelligent practitioner and surgeon that I've referred quite a few people to in the last two years. He's treating my 8 year old for severe environmental allergies and performed a parathyroidectomy on me a few months ago. He does an excellent job of explaining medical conditions and procedures in a way that's understandable. His bedside manner is also fantastic.

Dr. Rajeev H. Mehta is an excellent doctor and a gifted surgeon. He is attentive, honest and straightforward. His professionalism is unparalleled, and he leads the field in the treatment of head and neck cancer. I’ve been seeing Dr. Mehta for about a year and a half, ever since he diagnosed me with cancer in my neck and at the base of my tongue. He has always been very caring, compassionate and professional, and he has always taken the time to answer any questions I might have. I owe my life to Dr. Mehta - there is no better endorsement than that.

Dr. Mehta has excellent bedside manner and is, by far, the most knowledgeable ENT I’ve ever dealt with. He removed only half of my thyroid after assuring me my tumor was benign. He was correct, based on his experience with this type of tumor, he just knew it wasn’t cancer. I trusted him and he was right. Surgery went well, follow up went well, and he was patient, warm, and kind from start to finish. I cannot recommend his office enough. Staff is friendly and caring. Dr. Mehta is AMAZING.

I totally agree, with what others wrote. about his kindness and outstanding bedside manner, but that is not what impressed me the most. What impressed me most were his brains and his skillfulness. I have so much confidence in this doctor, that I am writing his review "before" I have the surgery.
