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.

Don’t see this physician.
I saw this physician after being diagnosed with a regurgitating heart valve. I was her first morning appointment. She smelled as if she was drinking the night before. She took my hand and said “Do you need medicine?” She felt my pulse at my wrist and said “Did you just feel that? Your heart just jumped.” And told me I have “a little bit of A fib”. LOL! I don’t have A fib. I would give her zero stars if I could.

She saved my life. Went for some test. The test did not show anything wrong. She felt something was not right. She sent me to have a catheterization done. Had open heart surgery. Triple bypass the verry next day. They said I had what is called the widow maker. Thank you Dr Rutherford!

Dr. Rutherford is very down to earth. She explains results from tests in a very simplistic way, so everyday people can understand. She cuts thru all the unnecessary testing to get to the real issue and problem; if you had already had a particular test 2-3 months ago and don't necessarily need it again, she won't make you have it for "money" purposes. She is a doctor on a mission to help solve your health issue to get you well!! Honest, trustworthy! Hard to find!
