About Joash A Raj

About the Provider

I was drawn to medicine because I wanted to care for others in a thoughtful and meaningful way. Where I grew up, service and community were important and I developed an appreciation for walking alongside people during both ordinary and challenging times. I enjoy caring for children of all ages and am especially passionate about supporting families through complex or chronic health concerns.

My approach to care is centered around careful listening, thoughtful consideration, and collaboration. I take time to understand each child and family story so that I can provide personalized guidance when situations feel uncertain. I want you to feel heard, reassured, and confident about the care plan we create together.

Building relationships with children and their families over time is something I value greatly. Guiding families through the uncertainties of childhood and adolescence and supporting their children as they grow and thrive brings me a lot of joy.

    A little difficult to get questions asked in between all of the great information given. Just a fast talker. Maybe he could just make sure to ask if I have any questions

    Very knowledgeable and provided lots of information. I appreciate that he didn't assume I knew everything since I already have two other children. He answered most of my questions before I asked.

    My 4 year old with a bad ear infection commented days later that “the doctor was so kind when he was doing his looking.”

    Having been unsure if I have met Dr. Raj before, I absolutely loved his ability to speak with encouragement, kindness and compassion towards me - he comforted me and reminded me that if I needed or wanted any assistance, he would be there and that was much appreciated!

    He is always wonderful. Very knowledgeable. If he left corewell, we would leave. He is the only reason we come to this office.

    He really cares and knows my child’s chart. He makes it easy to talk about issues by asking clarifying questions.

    The MA that initially admitted us to the room was fantastic. Dr Raj who we have a long history with has progressively deviated from his baseline of positive care and understanding. Again, perhaps this is a one-off situation in relation to the environment and practice as a whole but left us with concerns.
