After my daughter had gallbladder surgery, she continued to have persistent gastrointestinal pain. While her primary GI doctor was excellent, as with most clinical physicians, he didn’t have time to devote to detailed research on possible causes. Exacerbating the issue was the fact that my daughter was moving quite a bit after college and therefore needed to see other physicians as her needs arose. Our family became frustrated as our daughter’s pain did not seem to be getting any better. We found Dr. Rajan (a.k.a. Houston Patient Advocacy) after a web search and contacted him immediately. He did a full background review with our daughter and collected medical records from my daughter’s previous and current physicians. After pouring over the records researching possible causes, Dr. Rajan presented some ideas to our daughter’s primary GI. The GI agreed to a different course of treatment and our daughter began improving soon thereafter. One of the primary reasons we would recommend Dr. Rajan is that he is also a supporter of integrative medicine and encourages his clients to practice a holistic approach to good health. Moreover, since we did quite a bit of web research on our own, Dr. Rajan would always give us an immediate opinion on any pertinent studies or articles we sent. Frustration and fear are part of any chronic health challenge, especially when you are dealing with multiple doctors and science you don’t understand. Dr. Rajan helped mitigate this fear and made our family feel like we were in control of our daughter’s health. I would give him my highest recommendation.

Hiring Dr Rajan as my health care advocate has made a huge impact on my life. Since my early 20’s I have been having multiple health issues. After years and years of being bounced from Dr to Dr, and enduring many tests and procedures things took a turn for the worse. I suffered tremendously every single day for about two years, then finally hit my breaking point. A good friend told me about Dr Rajan so I decided to give it a shot and meet with him. Upon our first meeting I could already tell I was in the right hands. Dr Rajan was VERY thorough in his questioning, note taking, and listening. I had finally found a doctor who not only acknowledged that something was wrong, but genuinely took an interest in bettering my quality of life. I was very skeptical about holistic treatments but Dr Rajan tackles health problems with a holistic AND medical approach. With Dr Rajan’s guidance I have learned where the root of my health problems is and how to tackle the issue. I’m now living and enjoying my life instead of just trying to get by. I highly recommend Dr Rajan to anyone who wants to live a better quality life!!

I highly recommend Dr Rajan as a heath coach. I am 38 year old healthy adult male and I want to stay that way. Dr Rajan has been my health coach for a better part of a year now. By having him educate me on factors that affect my heath I am better able to understand my health and understand what makes me healthy. My goal was to help avoid any chronic diseases and to create healthy habits. He is assisting me with stress management, sleep, and proper nutritional habits. Nutrition has been my Achilles heal so he has been working with me to give me strategies in dealing with nutrition that I wasn’t aware, basically having me eat better. Above all he has been holding me accountable to achieving a healthy diet that was sustainable for the long term. Having Dr Rajan spend time with me is what is most impressive. We can have serious conversations about health, I don’t need to wait a week to get an appointment, and he cares about my progress. He’s kind of like having a Doctor in the family that we’ve never had.

I am very grateful to have Dr. Vik Rajan as my advocate. For one thing, when he took a complete medical history from me, he taught me a number of easy things that I could do for my health that my own doctor never had the time to mention. One concern I had was over an increase in cholesterol, and Dr. Rajan helped me to review my three blood tests over the last year and a half to provide a more detailed analysis of how the meds my doctor prescribed were working for me. At the same time, he also identified some nutrient deficiencies in both my diet AND the quality of the vitamin brand I was taking. He provided an alternative, affordable, high quality vitamin & mineral supplement that I have been very pleased with. A very amazing thing happened when we discussed my interest in a minor medical procedure. Dr. Rajan took time to explain the procedure in detail and provided a referral physician to me. That physician’s office called me the NEXT morning to ask if I was “still available” to make an appointment that afternoon! Was that ever fast! The regular wait time would have been about another 3 weeks just to get an appointment with that doctor. I was also very pleased with the quality of the service provided by the physician that Dr. Rajan referred. Given the state of medicine and medical insurance these days, the question is not IF you need Dr. Rajan, but WHEN you will need him.
