November 27, 2024Karen C.Verified patient
I have been treated by Dr. Rubenstein for over 10 years. He has been consistently very thorough in his medical diagnosis and clearly communicating all of my options. He takes the time to answer all of my questions and concerns. He is familiar with all of the latest updates in orthopedics. His friendly and empathetic interactions with me have put me at ease and created an ongoing relationship of trust. He is most definitely an 11 on a scale of 1 to 10!

Dr. Rubenstein was warm and caring. He imparted a lot of information and was very helpful in his evaluation and suggested treatment. He made no attempt to "sell" me anything, but presented the facts clearly and concisely - giving me the options I needed to proceed or not.
