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.

Outstanding doctor!
I have been to several specialists over the last 7 months and none of them knew what they were doing. Within 10 minutes of listening to me Dr Rucker knew exactly what my issue was and although it mimics allergies it isn’t! She was able to prescribe me the right medicine and refer me in the right direction. I so appreciate her knowledge, and caring enough about me to make sure I got the right help!! HIGHLY recommend !!!

I saw Dr. Rajivi Rucker 2 times this month @ Allergy Associates in Sarasota. The first meeting she very abrupt and made me feel very uncomfortable. While examining me she told be to take of my top and then my pants very abruptly. She didn't leave the room for me to get undress and she stood over me like a drill sergeant while I was undressing. When I mentioned to her that I've never experienced anything like that she just stated "well they don't give full length gowns". During the first visit

Dr. Rucker is very professional and very good at listening to the needs we have for our daughter. She is very thorough. I would recommend her to anyone that is looking for a pediatrician that is smart, educated and listens to parents concerns.

This doctor was very rude and insulting. I will never come back to this office. Worst experience I've had at a "doctor's" office.

Dr. Rucker has always struck me as a highly knowledgeable, caring and understanding provider. She listens while offering excellent advice and has never made us feel inferior in our quest for understanding the complexities of raising an autistic child.
