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.

Doctor Kushi is an extraordinary Rheumatologist
Since the first day I met Doctor Kushi, he has been absolutely everything a patient could dream of when going to see his doctor. He’s extremely careful in his diagnosis, caring to the point of calling to see how the meds are working in between visits. Doctor Kushi is a Doctor among Doctors! He has the oath of not only doing no harm but trying everything in his power to help, his patients. I’m so lucky to have found him to help me with my condition. I don’t know what I would I do as a patient and a human being without my extraordinary doctor. Doctor Kushi cares for the whole patient and his support system. I never imagined that I would see a doctor so incredibly thorough, ever in my lifetime. He’s definitely not interested in anything else but the well-being of his patients. I strongly recommend that if you have rheumatoid arthritis make the trip to Wisconsin. He’s worth every single car ride to get to see him. You can be sure that he’s the best!

Preface - I care for a disabled family member and interface with dozens of specialists every year. Kushi is one of the worst I've ever encountered. He is dismissive, arrogant, lazy, and does not value his patient's time. I came to this office with what was readily identifiable as Rheumatoid Arthritis based on the labs that Dr. Kushi ordered in our first meeting. Rather than treating me as an RA patient (per the recommended care guidelines for that particular lab and my specific result) he discharged me from care with no plan for follow up. I continued to deteriorate and eventually collapsed and had a seizure at home due to a catastrophic drop in blood pressure that resulted from the inflammation in my major blood vessels and lungs. Eight months of aggressive care, six months of heavy steroids, four incredibly caring specialists (including a rheumatologist who diagnosed me in five minutes based of Dr. Kushi's labs) and I am finally stabilized.
