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.

LOVE Ruzbarsky, HATE his nurse
After being a very long time patient of Dr. Ruzbarsky, it is time to move on. He has helped me so much through the years and has always taken me seriously and with care. I enjoy his humor and realness and have always thought of him kind of like a father figure as well as a physician. So it is with great sadness that I have to find a new provider because I just cannot deal with his nurse, ruthie. She is a nasty, condescending, and downright abhorrent person and there is no way getting around her. It is such a shame that Dr R lets this thing run him. The front office staff is generally friendly and the other nurses are very sweet. I truly am sad to have to leave.

He always listens, takes his time, never rushes me. Never sugar coats my test results. He has been a life saver for myself a few times now. I will never see anyone but him.

Loves talking about himself more than anyone I've ever met. You talk to him about your problems and he launches into a story about himself that is not even relevant. Arrogant. If he's not an actual narcissist he's pretty damn close.

Does not communicate with people and is refusing to see people. Refers everyone to Carroll hospital to see a doctor. Had a simple UTI and he was incapable of treating it. Not dependable.

Always willing to listen. Recommends reasonable alternatives. Tales the time to explain health issues. I trust he is telling me what I need to know and want to know.
