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.

I went to Dr. Rudman after a shoulder injury. He came highly recommended. Met with him and he wished to do an MRI to see the extent of my injury. However, my insurance company wouldn’t approve an MRI at that point and sent me to physical therapy for a few weeks. Dr. Rudman continued to advocate for an MRI, which was eventually done and revealed some tears in my shoulder which needed surgery, which he went over with me. Each meeting I had with Dr. Rudman was very pleasant. Very informative doctor, very good bedside manner, he listens to your concerns or questions and addresses them. He performed the surgery and made me very comfortable during the day of surgery. He followed up with a phone call that night to see how I was doing. I’ve met with him post op where he showed me the damage and repair to my shoulder and laid out a plan for my recovery. I’m very pleased with this doctor, and glad he came highly recommended by others in the medical field, and glad I chose to see him.

Shocked at lack of care
I was disappointed and confused after leaving my very short visit with Dr. Rudman. I broke my wrist and needed medical care. Dr. Rudman barely looked at my wrist, asked me very few questions, and suggested I come back the following week. I decided to go for a second opinion and received very different care. I was immediately put in a cast and had all of my questions answered thoroughly. Quite a contrast to my visit with Dr. Rudman.

I have had an invasive surgery on my right elbow to treat a bad case of tendinitis a while ago. Dr. Rudman and his team did they diligent work with informing me the pre-and post operative procedures and expected recovery time. He is very knowledgeable, clear and straightforward when explaining diagnosis, also very friendly and caring. He is also in great athletic shape as it confirms that he practice what he preach-very important if you looking for someone who understands sport injuries based on their own experience. It’s almost a year later and I feel absolutely wonderful. My appreciation and respect for Dr. Rudman, he made my elbow brand new-I’m pain-free, nothing short of a miracle. Thank you so much!!!

Went in for a pain in my shoulder that I had for about 6 months. I stated that I had already taking Aleve for about 3 weeks and it didn't help. After getting ex rays and a exam, doctor prescribed 2 weeks of taking Aleve. Next day I called the office to ask for a MRI so we can see exactly what is the problem . 5 days later got return call and was told that the doctor felt that a MRI wasn't the next step, but got no explanation why. I asked for the doctor to call me back to explain. Never heard back.

Dr Rudman performed a left shoulder repair after my the first doctor was unable to fix it. I have had full range of motion for a year. I now need Right shoulder surgery and I would not go to anyone except Dr. Rudman! I have recommended him to everyone! Excellent Doctor!!

When my aunt needed a shoulder replacement after suffering a complex, comminuted fracture from a fall in the bathroom, Dr. Rudman came highly recommended. The surgery went well and I was able to accompany my aunt for all of her post-op visits that she scheduled with the doctor. I could not have been more pleased with how professional, thorough, and attentive not only the doctor, but his front office staff was at each visit. Both my aunt and I are extremely grateful for the care provided.
