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.

Inconsistent & Inconsiderate
First visit was ok. Follow up was a squeeze in. Waited over 1 hr to be told blood work was inaccurate (I was given zero lab instructions) & I’d have to repeat it, but even then it can be inaccurate. Turned his back on me & said “I have to move on”

Dr. Pandey looked at me as more than just another name on his daily roster of patients to be seen on a given day. He saw that I was a wife, Mom & friend struggling every day to function with less and less hope that I’d ever feel ‘normal’ again. I am not “textbook” case and instead of dismissing me because on paper I looked well, he delved in and helped me get to the bottom of everything. I am living a bright vibrant life today because of him. HIGHLY recommend!!

Dr. Pandey is an excellent Rheumatologist. He takes the time to evaluate your pain issues and comes up with alternatives to give you choices. The most important merit about Dr. Pandey is that he listens to you and doesn't yes you. I first met Dr. Pandey in my primary practice and when he left that practice I followed him to Kayal Orthopaedic Center. I wouldn't consider seeing any other doctor for Rheumatology!!!

Dr Pandey is personable, highly skilled in his field and just a wonderful physician! He's treating my mom who in the past, wouldn't step foot in an MD office. Dr Pandey not only changed her attitude, but allowed her to live her life again! We are so grateful we found him since leaving Fairlawn.

Dr Pandey is the most knowledgeable, caring and thorough Drs I have ever had as part of extensive medical team. I am pleased is new office in Franklin Lakes will enable me to continue with my confidence in his excellent care and wonderful staff! My life would not be what it is today without his extensive knowledge and expertise with Lupus and his ability to "listen" to what I am experiencing to get to the bottom of this challenging diagnosis

He is by far one of the best drs. I have ever had. I was so upset when I learned he had left the Fair Lawn practice but am SO happy I have found him. We are beyond pleased to announce one of the biggest and most exciting bits of news flash to hit Bergen County, NJ in the field of Medicine: the creation of the Kayal Rheumatology Center and the acquisition of two preeminent, distinguished and highly renowned Rheumatologists in the tristate area: Alan Zalkowitz, MD - Chief of Rheumatology, and R

Dr. Rajesh Pandey is whats right with medicine. Of all my years going to a doctors, i was blown away, because he is single handily the best MD I've ever met. He really took the time to understand my health problems, understand my family history and prescribe an action plan. His intelligence level radiates, as the questions he asks demonstrate his care to solve the root cause. I walked out there going wow. I wish more doctors were like him, then we'd all be healthier.

The most amazing doctor I have ever been to! I have been suffering from hip pain for at least 12 years now. I was misdiagnosed and placed on many different meds for many years now. Filled with much frustration and much pain, in tears I saw Dr. Pandey. He was so kind and caring, spent hours with me and many visits and tests later, he finally figured out what is wrong with me. He has given me back some hope that there are some good doctors out there who will stop at nothing to help you!
