Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Rubin saved my life. I was getting chemotherapy for my breast cancer. The chemotherapy caused left and right ventricle damage. He worked with me to get my heart working properly again. He is a very good doctor and listens when you see him in the office.

This man will have you seeing a nurse rather than doing the job himself. He is not at all helpful in adjusting medications or in helping patients deal with side effects. He gets angry and aggressive with patients who question his practice. He physically escorted me out the door and sent a certified letter asking me to never come back when I told him I did not want to see a nurse when I'm paying for a specialist. The nurse had mocked me for having side effects on my medication and called me "a dizzy girl". I think this man has "little man syndrome" when he decides to man handle a small woman like me. I never raised my voice with him or gave him a reason to be so forceful. I did not want to go back ever again. I didn't want to be there in the first place. My PCP made me go to him. A certified letter was not at all necessary to keep me far away from this man. It was just another way for him to try to do harm to me. Avoid this guy unless you like bullies.

Dr. Rubin is the most proficient and cordial practitioner of any kind I have ever had an appointment with. I trust his advice and judgement and would suggest he has likely saved my life. The people around him, including his CNP, nurses, and office likewise do an excellent job. Everyone in his system is most approachable. He's a 10.

I was recently dismissed by Dr Rubin because after fainting during a scheduled tilt table test, I didn't have a ride home. I was never told I would need a driver that I recall. And I told the nurses I didn't have a ride when I checked in for the test. My work has to come first at this time and so I left. And drove myself. I specifically asked Dr Rubin if I should cancel my echocardiogram he ordered. He said NO. Im at the hosp to find out my echo was cancelled. My time means nothing apparently

My husband had cardiac arrest, he was given a pacemaker. Dr. Rubin is kind, spends time with you and make sure you understand what is going on with you and procedures. He has a sense of humor and lays it all on the line. Dr. Rubin is exceptional at his profession and would recommend him to anyone who is or thinks they are having heart problems. THANK YOU DR. RUBIN!

It was my first time seeing Dr.Rubin and it was the worse visit and I would never go back to him ever again. At the time of my visit we discussed what was going on and he made the comment in front of my daughter that he didn't think I was having heart issues he believed it to be bad raising by my parents and having a bad childhood so I needed to seek mental counseling.
