Dr Rajaii is excellent caring knowledgeable skilled and is one of the best at Wilmer. She opened up my tear duct. She didn't think it was blocked but now that she did the procedure it is so much better and not clogged feeling. She was very skillful in getting an afraid person to trust her to do the procedure which seemed very scary.
