"Dr. Aljadir treats my Mother who has stage 4 colon cancer. He is so knowledgeable and tries to share information on a level that we can understand. His compassion comes from a place that is honest and his humor helps get us through the tough conversations. Although he cares for so many, he treats us as if we are his only patient…really takes the time to answer all of our questions and makes sure we are comfortable with the answers. I would recommend him higher than anyone in his field as he is everything you’d want, going through something so difficult!"

"This doctor is amazing! I could go on and on about how amazing he has been. My mother just recently got diagnosed with lung cancer that has spread to her brain. She has never been one to like doctors or been a good patient per say but this doctor has been amazing and she LOVES him. He goes the extra mile for his patients. During this process we have had so many emotions and at times felt like we have so many questions that need answers to but when he comes in and starts talking we feel the peace and all of our concerns or questions we thought we had disappear. He covers all of our questions, actually listens and gives us time to ask questions. He’s truly a great physician! We completely trust him and are so very blessed to have him for our mother."

"My Hero. He has the knowledge, intelligence, and skills of a professional genius and the thoroughness, kindness, concern, caring, and compassion of a consummate human being. I trust my life to Dr Aljadir and would, and indeed already have, recommend him to anyone with a blood dyscrasia or malignancy. As an NP myself, I trust him completely."

"Definitely one of the most caring and attentive doctors that I've met at UT hospital. My dad was diagnosed with stage IV esophageal cancer and you could see the pain in his eyes knowing that he had to put my father on a palliative care treatment. I've had some bad experiences there, but he kept my dad alive long enough that was able to see his final goals realized. While I don't like many of the doctors at UT-Knoxville, this is one of the few that shows a great deal of empathy and sympathy with his patients and their loved ones."
