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 is Superb!!
Dr. Rubin solved my difficulties with a recent injury and helped with long-term neuropathy pain from an old disc rupture.

Five months after I had Achilles surgery, I experienced pain and swelling. It’s very difficult to get an appointment so ask to have Dr Rubin call me, but was told that I had to come in even though I had to wait 2 weeks. Worst staff that I’ve ever encountered.

Dr. Rubin has the best bedside manner and rapport with his patients. I have never met a more caring doctor in my entire life. His surgical skill and aftercare are truly unbelievable. I wish all my doctors were like him.

I went to Dr Rubin w/a significant fracture of my ankle. Naturally, I was a bit shaken & nervous, not knowing what was coming in terms of surgery/recovery. Dr. Rubin walked into the room & when i held out my hand for introductions, he immediately folded my hand in both of his with a warm, generous smile. I was immediately at ease & comforted. He has such a confident presence, you know you're in good hands. Another doctor sent me to him, saying i needed the best. I feel that's what I got!

I have been to see him for several different foot problems, and he has always helped me. He is a very unusual Dr. Why? because he really cares, and takes his time with you. I'm moving to Fl but I'm still going to make appointments and make the trip back up to see him, unless he can give me a great Dr. like himself down in fl. It make take a while to get in to see him but the wait is truly with it.

I was referred to Dr. Rubin from two other doctors. They said he is the best and they are right! I've spent two years recovering from multiple surgeries to fix my 'bad' foot. Dr. Rubin has given me back my mobility and restored my quality of life. I will forever be thankful for his expertise, confidence and kindness.

I am a diabetic and fell ill due to an infection based on Charcot Foot. I was hospitalized and the doctors were leaning toward amputation. Dr. Rubin walked into my hospital room and instantly made a difference. He stopped the amputation talks and fully explained my condition to me and my family. He saved my foot and took very personal care of me. I am 1 week from walking with no assistance for the first time in 2 years. If you have foot problems, Dr. Rubin's office is where you need to be.

My experience with the doctor was great and his staff was very nice, but he may be a bit too thorough...I waited and hour and a half! They need to work on their scheduling. I recommend him, just be prepared to wait!
