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.

Relief
Dr Rutledge was awesome. I was so nervous for the reason my hip was bothering me. He completely relieved my mind with thorough information and a detailed plan to remedy the problem. I left the office feeling like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. Thank you Dr Rutledge.

Very likely
He explained the directions for taking meds very well and explained the procedure for getting well very good.; If I have any problems or aren’t better, I’m to come back for further treatment and he told me what that would encompass.

Great physician
Dr. Rutledge was very knowledgeable and precise regarding my issues. He listened to what I had to say and gave me a pamphlet that I could use that would help me strengthen my limbs and joints. He was very easy to talk to. A very nice person.

Great office visit with Dr Rutledge.
First Doctor Rutledge reviewed my condition and ordered X-rays based on the description of the pain I was experiencing. He then read them and explained my problem is great detail and in plain language that was easily understood. He recommended treatment choices and we selected the best one for my condition and needs. I left his office feeling much better and more confident that my pain would be gone soon. He is a nice doctor and very experienced and knowledgeable. His staff Chelsea and Marie made my visit pleasant and efficient. Thank you!
