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.

I wish I had an opportunity to express myself concerning my health, which is why I made the appointment. He wouldn't allow me to speak. So disappointed.

He’s a wonderful doctor. He has already did one Surgery on me and he did an excellent job. Because my back is deteriorating he has to do another surgery on me soon.

As always, Dr Ratuznik is excellent. He is extremely patient, considerate, and helpful. He always goes out of his way to explain your options and answers any questions that you have. He always clarifies any outstanding issues or concerns that you have, and he will explain it multiple ways in order for you to understand what is going on. I think he has great bedside manners and the care/ concern he takes to assist you is very genuine. I would be happy to recommend him to anyone that I know.

ADCF C5-7
Dr.Ratusznik was my second opinion that I drove 3 hours to see. He is very professional and well mannered. Dr. Ratusznik explained the needed procedure to improve quality of life. He was very detailed in explaining all aspects of the Surgery. I was given per-operative PT to help with healing process after the surgery. Surgery went well with good outcomes so far and will have post op visit soon.Dr Ratusznik is very caring as well as his staff. Any questions or concerns I call right away I have answers from Dr Ratusznik and his staff. I will refer anyone to him with 100% confidence’s that they will also receive the best care !
