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.

Excellent care and response to my health issues!
Dr. Rubio is 2 1/2 hours away from where I live but well worth the drive! Very thorough with examine and attentive to my issues. I have had 3 different Rheumatologist in the past 20 years that all retired. Dr. Rubio is the best!

First time seeing this doctor was today.Asked me questions,then would interrupt me when i tried to answer them.Never even looked at my paper work.Was told that i have fibro ,which i was already told that by my family doctor over ten years ago.When i realized that he was not going to listen to my concerns and symptoms at all.I become very emotional.The way i was just written off like i didnt matter at all.That is what upset me.I know that i am overweight.I did not need him to point that out to me.I know i need to exercise.I am not stupid.But the manner in which i was treated was very unprofessional.He gave me a very fast look over.And that was it.The only test he ordered was x rays of my hands.Because i am always negative for the rf factor.And had recently had blood work done.He did not order any additional blood work. My hands are the least of my issues.I have chronic daily pain.That has became very aggressive the last year or so.He just wrote it all off to fibro.Would not recommend.

Dismissal of patient due to age and perceived gender. Refused to do testing, and made a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia with less than 2 minutes of actual examination. Refused to show compassion toward daily chronic pain with genetic link. Made no treatment plan and told patient to learn to cope with crippling and debilitating pain. Also told patient to seek a second opinion, rather than ever come back and see him, when further evidence toward a different diagnosis is discovered. So if you are under 30, and female-presenting, be prepared to hear that you are essentially hysterical and wasting this doctor's time. 10/10 do not recommend.

He was very rude, abrasive and lost his temper with me on my first visit. I will never have anything to do with him again. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL ????

When you find a Dr. who loves getting positive result, that takes time to listen, he is worthy of your time. To me Dr Rubio is that Dr.

Dr. Rubio is the best Rheumatologist that I have seen! He is very very thorough and on your first visit he orders blood work 6 vials was drawn at the hospital bc he checks for everything that other drs have found and looks for anything that they could of missed! He takes his time going over family history and what problems you are experiencing which is so nice and professional!He found new auto immune disorders and cleared my rare psoriasis! He is a very awesome kind caring Dr! I recommend!
