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.

We have been going to Dr. Rutledge for 25 years now. He has always listened to what is going on with us and he has always been concerned about our health. Any time he thought we needed to see a surgeon, or specialist he made sure we had the right doctor for our family. He stays on top of any testing that he thinks we need to have. We could not ask for anyone better to be our family doctor.

Missed a critical diagnosis and cost me the hearing in my left ear. I've been seeing him since I was around 8 years old: so for about 22 years. Still won't write me a prescription for antidepressants, my ADHD meds (which I've taken for about 20 years), or anything else for that matter. He will write my parents prescriptions though. This Dr isn't a good doctor, and is probably a bigot. My parents love him, but he treats them well.
