“Dr.Ajit is friendly and professional. However front desk staff could use more professionalism. Per example, refrain from discussing personal matters while patients are present. Openly using their cell phone. ”
Louise P.December 19, 2025
“Ajith was exceptional. He was kind, professional, and truly attentive. He took the time to listen carefully, weigh both my symptoms and history, and walk me through the most reasonable options without rushing or dismissing anything. I appreciated how thoughtfully he approached a treatment plan and how open he was to adjusting it within a few days if things didn’t improve. He struck that rare balance of competence and genuine care. I left feeling understood and supported, not brushed aside. Highly recommend seeing Ajith!”

Quick and great service
August 5, 2025Warren B.Verified patient
The doctor was patient. He told me he was ordering multiple test that seemed appropriate. The results did not come for 5 days in an email. some of the labs were abnormal from the email. I did not get any follow up to tell me what I should do regarding my abnormal results.. I had to contact my GP and have an appointment to see what I should do.. I just want to stay healthy. I am feeling better. lots of sleep and liquid IV from amazon. Our friend told us about it.

It wasn't to busy when i went, everyone was friendly and respectful. I didn't have to wait to long to be seen and for a first time visit for a physical it wasn't long. They only do blood work Monday to Saturday but other than that. Thank you all for your service and seeing me! Thank you!

My 11 year old son seen by Dr. Ajith Herath at AllCare , Ellicott City, MD. Dr. Ajith is very understanding and listens to my son's concerns.
