Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I've been a patient since 1997 and before. I used to bring my dad to him also. Dr Nadaradja is a good doctor and I would recommend him personally. Plus there staff are great too. ? Especially Julie is a gem ??

Office Staff is horrible
Dr. Nadarajah is an excellent doctor but his staff at the desk are so rude . One exception can be made as one young girl is helpful . The washed out blonde is by far the nastiest person and should not work with any people in any line of customer service . She should go work on a farm though that would be punishment to any animal that comes in contact with her . My daughter made a call and luckily got the nice girl who told her to have me come down immediately to pick up blood work papers and she would have a form signed by the doctor that my quadriplegic daughter needed for appointment . Upon arriving at the glass window , I was verbally accosted . Nasty lady told me that was not happening and proceeded to tell me that no one would tell my daughter that nor was it happening today. She refused to help me ! The battle of words went on for some time as she showed her unprofessional demeanor until the nice girl overhead and came to my rescue making nasty lady eat humble pie . Fire her

Horrible Doctor and bad office
Did not help me with sleep apnea, just told me to keep using the machine, I asked him a question about it and told me to talk to the nurse, nurse couldn’t answer , after being frustrated I decided to see another doctor and when I asked for my records they denied me and told me it would cost $25 to have a copy of my own records, never heard of that before. Stay away from this place

Be aware of how they represent information
Very disappointed with the service and professionalism of this team. For over 9 months tried to correct misinformation on a death certificate and still nothing took place. They seem to make up claims without substance and refer to things that are 5 years old that are unjustified. Never even reached out to the PCP to verify the documentation. Wondering if this type of behavior is done on purpose. Check every document they produce.

I started going to Dr Nadarajah at the beginning of the pandemic. His staff was so nice and helpful with getting me in right away to see him, espcially as a new patient. I have been there quite a few times in the last couple of years. He is a great doctor and takes the time to talk with me about my concerns.

Been going to Dr N for a few years now. He is great. I have also seen a couple of the nurses there, also great. Never had an issue. Of course, depending on when you go there could be longer wait times, but the staff always come out and make announcements and keep you informed. Very friendly and great group there!

I became a new patient at Dr. Nadarajah's office this past year. I have nothing but good things to say about him, the nurses and the rest of the staff there. They take their time in explaining things, they helped to check my insurance for coverage and even booked my procedure. I am very pleased. They have been very thorough and on top of everything. Highly recommend Dr and the nurse practitioners there. Good job to them!!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Nadarajah?
I have been a patient with dr. Nadarajah for nine years now and also have seen one of his nurse Practioners in the office, he is a wonderful physician and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my health. Dr. Nadarajah, his staff are always kind and willing to help you by going above and beyond in any way they can, from answering simple questions, to scheduling appointments, whether that be in the office or something to do with the hospital or any other facility. His front staff and clinical are always so kind in greeting you when you first come in and when they bring you to an exam room to start your visit with Dr. Nadarajah or one of his Nurse Practioners.

I presented with dyspnea and laryngitis at Dr. Nadarajah's office. Because of the laryngitis, I had difficulty communicating my symptoms. The doctor suggested my protracted case was psychogenic, and that I willfully sabotaged a spirometry test. He mentioned a possible diagnosis under his breath, with no explanation. I finally went to another pulmonologist, who confirmed asthma. My experience with this doctor was beyond frustrating, with treatment delayed because of his dismissive attitude to a patient in distress. Save yourself the trouble and find someone competent.

A complete joke, He flat out told me when I leave his office I'm on my own to follow up on my medical condition. Told me it's waste of time to speak to his patients about administrative errors his office made. More like no money in talking to patients unless it's a paid visit. He is beyond unprofessional and takes no ownership. Check all the reviews, lots of 1 stars, not surprised

Montague, NJ – May 17, 2017
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Nadarajah?
Dr. Nadarajah is a caring doctor. However, he leaves a lot of the processing to his staff (PA) and spends a lot of time fiddling with his phone while he's with you. I have been complaining about certain symptoms that I now know are related to my situation. He is quick to order tests and send you to other doctors. He does not dig deep enough to understand related conditions that should be under his specialty. Nice guy, but not competent. This may be due to being too busy or complacent.

This terrible doctor left me in pain for months with a shoulder injury after 4 months of agonizing pain he finally referred me to an orthopedic surgeon. Doctor won't even answer simple questions about the condition I had. His staff and reception crew are nasty and barely anyone calls back! This man shouldn't be treating live patients zero bedside manner and only cares about covering his butt.

I would not recommend this doctor because he does not provide the family and patient with information necessary to make decisions needed for long term care. He uses new medications for treatment, like Xeralto and Stiolto, despite these drugs harmful side effects.
