Dr. Rakesh Dussa, MD

Family Physician
1101 S Cedar Crest Blvd, Suite 200, Allentown, PA
A scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent. As an Eagle Scout, I live by these principles both in life and while practicing medicine. With these values in mind, I enjoy caring for the entire family?from newborns to great-grandparents. I believe in building a solid relationship with you based on trust and clear communication. I follow an evidence-based approach, emphasizing proactive care, screening, and prevention, and I encourage your involvement every step of the way. I developed my interest in medicine early on while volunteering for a local emergency medical services (EMS) squad. I loved the one-to-one connection with patients as well as the intellectual challenge medicine offers. Family medicine, specifically, allows me to care for the entire family and be actively involved in the community. I earned my Bachelor's degree from Montclair State University and completed my Doctor of Medicine at Ross University. I then completed my residency in Family Medicine at Virginia Commonwealth University Health System. As a Boy Scout, I became involved with community service at a young age. As an adult, I have performed high school sports physicals and hope to continue my active involvement in community service in the Lehigh Valley area. In my spare time, I enjoy playing sports, hiking, working out, and trying new restaurants. I am also a fan of Philadelphia sports teams.
