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.

Dr. Rutherford is truly a wonderful, kind, compassionate doctor. I hate to see her retire but wish her well and nothing but happiness. A search is on now to find a new doctor for our family that is on par with her skills and manners. Thank you for everything Dr. Rutherford. You will be missed. ;)

I have had some pretty horrible experiences with Doctors in Gadsden over the past few years, a friend told me about Dr. Rutherford as he to was getting frustrated with the doctors he was seeing. He found Dr. Rutherford and told me about her i immediately made an appointment an i will not see anyone else now. She always listens, explains in detail, overall best an most caring Dr. I've ever met. Thank You Dr. Rutherford for always taking the time to listen an explain everything to me. Also staff!!

Very nice and caring Doctor! I never feel rushed, she always listens patiently to any concerns i might have and she explains things very well. Her staff is great, if i call they call me back as soon as possible and they always call me with my test results. Previous doctors never did i always had to wait and end up calling them and they were bad! I highy recommend Dr. Rutherford. I hope she's around for a very long time, i will not see anyone else now!
