Rafeul Alam, MD, PhD

National Jewish Health Patient– December, 2018
Dr. Rafeul Alam is a provider that shows he cares about his patients by listening intently, analyzing your medical history and providing advice that pertains to your situation. I can't tell you how many times I have been pushed around from my general physician to another physician trying to figure out my issues without success. Dr. Alam has helped me figure out all of my [condition] issues and I only wish that Dr. Alam was my main general physician.

National Jewish Health Patient– December, 2018
There no more caring or smarter doctor than Dr. Alam. For me there is no more perfect doctor. I feel that I am so lucky to be able to go to National Jewish and see Dr. Alam and all the staff. I treasure my ability to have access to this fine institution and Dr. Alam.

Dr. Alan is wonderful

National Jewish Health Patient– August, 2018
Had a "fellow" see me first (did not know this til later), when he could not answer my questions he went for *Dr. Alam to finished my visit and did not feel satisfied with visit. I was in ER in FL & told [my condition] was cause.

National Jewish Health Patient– August, 2018
very good

National Jewish Health Patient– July, 2018
Dr. Alam exudes kindness, good humor, and caring. A great doctor.

National Jewish Health Patient– July, 2018
Dr Alam and his staff listened to me and we're very helpful. I came in with an internet self diagnosis which is so ridiculous but my concerns were addressed, my questions answered and no one made me feel foolish.

National Jewish Health Patient– July, 2018
Saw [a fellow], then she talks to *Dr. Alam he came in at the end of appt.

National Jewish Health Patient– June, 2018
Dr. Alam and his team were, as said earlier, top flight! I travelled all the way from [place} to be at National Jewish Hospital (and without insurance!) and found the experience to be well worth the time, effort and expense!

National Jewish Health Patient– June, 2018
Dr. Alam takes the time to explain any and all instructions to me.

National Jewish Health Patient– July, 2017
Care provider ran out of time for the visit so we did not fully cover all the information that would have been ideal to cover.

National Jewish Health Patient– May, 2017

National Jewish Health Patient– May, 2017
Outstanding!

National Jewish Health Patient– May, 2017
I have great confidence in Dr. Alamn.

National Jewish Health Patient– April, 2017
Because of a chronic and complex illness, I have seen close to 4 dozen doctors in the past years, most too overwhelmed by the breadth of my symptoms, and dismissing me. Of those, Dr. Alam holds first place with only one other doctor I've seen in that time. Meaning, he is an exemplary physician, not only in his knowledge and understanding, but also in his persona, social interaction, sense of humor, and basically treating me like Im actually an intelligent human being who has relevant knowledge! Thank you! He actually suggested something that NO OTHER doctor has even considered - that my severe [Condition] symptoms be related to continually more severe [Condition], and now I will be seeing a [DOCTOR], someone I probably should have seen years ago considering I have so many [Condition]hormone issues! I am grateful, and to be honest, I have gotten teary eyed on more than one occasion thinking about how lucky I was to be able to see Dr. Alam for my [Condition]. Perhaps some of us chronically ill patients, who continue striving and hoping with no real treatment or hope in sight, do eventually get to who they need to see. At least I was one! Thank you thank you thank you!

*Dr. Alam is a very good doctor and I am glad that he is.

National Jewish Health Patient– May, 2016
I have never had as good of service as I receive at National Jewish. I continue to make the drive because of my confidence in the medical care I receive. And when I have had problems, the speed in resolving issues is unprecedented.

National Jewish Health Patient– March, 2016
*Dr. Alam is by far the most caring physician I have had at National Jewish.

National Jewish Health Patient– February, 2016
Was on his phone, didn't let me talk or listen to what I wanted to tell him and I feel this appointment was a waste of my time and money.

National Jewish Health Patient– February, 2016
Dr. Alam and his allergy fellow spend an amount of time with me which was beyond all other professionals I see.

National Jewish Health Patient– February, 2016
dr alam and the physician assistant was very courteous and friendly. they both were very knowledgeable about my disease.

National Jewish Health Patient– February, 2016
Great experience hands down. Despite the complexities around my issues he was the first doctor to actually want to really dive in and help. Even when I was crying he was courteous and understanding (got me tissues!). He is thinking outside of the box with what's going on and really took the time to understand every detail of my symptoms and concerns. He represents the medical profession and how it has to be in this day in age. Proactive, out of box thinkers and not just text book practicing. He also listened and that's what patients need. Patients are smarter and while you can't believe everything you hear or read to try and self-diagnose, we know our bodies and when something isn't right. I truly do appreciate his professionalism, the team of staffs professionalism and his willingness to really try and help. This is the furthest I have gotten in over 10 years of dealing with my issues.
