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.

Fragile Harvard ego
I saw Dr. Rubenstein for a skin exam. He identified a 'suspicious' mole that he described as two-toned in color and said it should be removed from my back. While I was face down on the exam table, I asked him to take a picture of the mole so that I could see what he was talking about and he said in an aggressive tone, 'Why? Are you going to make your own diagnosis on this? Would seeing the picture change your mind anyway?' He refused to take a picture of it and show it to me unless I agreed to have the procedure done. Does this doctor have total disregard for patient informed consent? See him at your own risk.

Horrible
My mother is a patient and was treated the worst I’ve ever seen a doctor’s office treat a patient. She has been waiting a week now for the office to prescribe her something for her diagnosed “eczema”. She has been calling constantly the whole week waiting for this prescription. They won’t return her phone calls and are very dismissive of her. But now her “eczema” has spread all over her body, she can’t sleep, and her body is all swollen. If she ends up with an infection (which is the way it’s heading) I will hold this office responsible. Don’t go here if you want to be treated with respect and treated at all.

Dr. Rubenstein is the best. I've been with him for over 20 years. He's a great doctor and has a great bedside manner - affable, caring, asks about your life, explains things well. I hope he doesn't retire anytime soon!

I have been seeing Dr Rubinstein for more than 20 years. He is thorough and takes his time doing skin checks. He has cared for many family members and I strongly recommend him.

Dr. Rubenstein has been my Dermatologist for 20 years. He has provided me with consistently wonderful service. He has checked me regularly and removed necessary things in the office. He work is always clean and painless and does not leave a scar. Sometimes a surgeon is required I have always been extremely happy with his associates.
