Dr. Al Rubaiay is a gem. I had a surgery by him for a horrible bone fracture in my foot. It’s 100% better and I hardly have a scar!!. Shortly after that, I developed a horrendous infection on the pad of my other foot. It was beyond painful but this incredible doctor patiently cleaned it out manually, without an injection. He was very gentle and I hardly felt any pain through the process. I have already recommended him to many and a friend was extremely pleased with him as well. He has a wonderful bedside manner and really makes you feel at ease, while explaining everything and answering questions. I wish all doctors were like him:)
