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.

Brilliant doctor
Dr. Rusche is an absolute gem in his field of practice. He is extremely intelligent,knowledgeable with any questioned asked and has not fell into the category of many other providers herding people in and out in 10 minute intervals. His caring bedside manner is remarkable. There’s not many good ones like him left. Those that are fortunate enough to have him as their rheumatologist are truly blessed. I wouldn’t be where I am today without him. His nurse Stacey ranks up there very high as well. She takes the time to ask about not only you but how life has been outside the medical said of things( doc does this as well) They are a fantastic team! They come with gold star recommendations

I have been seeing Dr Rusche for 20 yrs now and can not say enough positive things about him. He is an extremely intelligent man and knowledgeable in his craft. He is always very sweet and caring and strives to educate his patient then includes them in decisions about their care. I have been very satisfied with his care over these last 20 yrs and can not even fathom seeing anyone else.
