I had surgery with Dr. Rutstein in 2009. She did an excellent job and communicated very well what the future would hold for me. Since that time, I have contacted her on at least three different occasions to ask for a second opinion on various related issues. She has always been clear about the path forward and if my question was not in her area of expertise, she gave me the name of a peer who could give me answers. I find all interactions with Dr Rutstein to be extremely helpful, and I highly respect her and recommend her.
