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.

Fantastic in all ways
Dr. Rudolph is a fantastic surgeon and his bedside manners are impeccable. I had one shoulder operated on by another doctor, then the other shoulder operated on by Dr. Rudolph a year later. The outcome of Dr. Rudolph’s performance far exceeded the other surgeons. 17 years later it’s starting to fail again, when I returned to see him, he remembered my case immediately. Would highly recommend him to anyone

Dr Rudolph has treated both my husband and myself. He is patient, speaks on a level anyone can understand, he's honest and well versed in orthopaedics. He's also gentle and kind. His nurse is as awesome as he is. If you have joint pain, I would go to him. With him, surgery is the last resort, not the first. My kind of doctor!

Dr Rodolph is a very careing person. He helped me when I fx my pelvis and gided me to the correct DR's that I needed to see. I ended back up with him after all was done. I would trust him with all my needs. I give him 5 stars.

My experience as a new patient was wonderful. The staff members (secretary, technician, nurse, were ALL very competent & pleasant. They kept to my app’t. time of 2pm almost to the minute, which is very appreciated. Dr. Rudolph promptly came in to introduce himself, & speak with me regarding my condition. He was thorough in his explanation of facts, as well as options of treatment. I chose getting a cortisone shot in my right knee. He was very kind & considerate!

First, I'm not one to make quick assessments on a physician. In fact, Dr. Rudolph performed my hip replacement in May 2013. I wanted to see how things worked out once the initial recovery was over. The results were beyond my greatest hopes. I got home on a Sunday and walked 1/2 mile on Tuesday with minor discomfort. Exactly 3 years post surgery, I was able to complete a 100 mile bike ride in 6 1/2 hours in very tough conditions. He is the real deal and I recommend him to anyone looking for

Dr. Rudolph does not sugar coat your results, he is honest and does not jump to surgery now. If you require a procedure, he will do it. He is confident, that is what I like in the medical profession. If you want someone to humor you and tell you all is well, find someone else. If you require a diagnosis, I recommend Dr. Rudolph.

Gregory M. in North Charleston, SC – Jul 21, 2016
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Rudolph IV?
I would never recommend Dr. Rudolph to any of my friends or family. I have had a terrible experience as his patient. Dr. Rudolph spends very little time with his patients. It is impossible to express any kind of concern because he thinks that he is God's gift to medicine. He leaves out important details that you need to know about your injury and then acts as if you should've known all along. He did a terrible job with my surgery. His assistants do not follow through with important paperwork.
