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 Rubenstein does not perform any treatment or procedure. The procedures are done by Resident Doctors in training ,operating on private patients, without supervision.But he gets paid fully from Medicare as if he is treating physician. The Residents Doctors are supposed to be in training and are not specialist in Dermatology, therefore legally can not work on a private patient without a specialist present in the treatment or operating room

Developed a rash and thought it was from touching something in my garden. Went to Dr, Rubenstein and he immediately diagnosed my condition as shingles (even though I had the singles shot). Prescribed two medications and in a week my condition improved. It's three weeks later and I'm feeling great
