Kaiser Permanente Santa Rosa Medical Center

Dr. Rubin is BY FAR the best physician I have ever had. At 62 this speaks volumes. I come from a time when I lived in Marin County, was private pay and retained our boutique family medicine MD at $1,600 a month. This fee from 15 years ago, was a retainer only, and represented only that I could make an appt. and did not include premiums, deductables and co-pays. Dr. Rubin has a unique quality of helping to ease fear, and really listens, advises and recalls small details, passing comments from a mail message or during a quick goodbye from weeks ago! This, her charm, her intelligence as well as her ability to multitask, makes me feel comfortable and at ease, has led me to feel that I can trust her 100%. She follows up, even without an appt, to check on my status, and will either book a new appt, possibly order a new Rx, or say keep up the good work! Added bonus is that when sets my next appt, she has her awesome staff call me to be sure I notated the appt. Professional, with a heart, not dry or jaded, she appears to be very happy and seems to be thriving in her new role here at Kaiser. To feel heard, to feel like a partner in my own health care can only be achieved through a foundation of great doctoring!; with excellent listening skills and cheerful and enthusiastic demeanor and she seems to be very happy. She is smart, detail oriented and so easy to understand. I hit the JACKPOT when I chose her to be my new primary care physician! I vote for Dr. Soshanna Rubin to be the winner this year of Kaiser's Best #1 Primary Care Physician in Santa Rosa Kaiser's family of excellent doctors. She is a keeper and I feel quite fortunate to be in her practice! Katrina V. A long time member of NorCal's Kaiser Permanente

Cervical Epidural: December 9, 2025: Special thanks to nurses Kelly and Danni, x-ray tech, Kaos, and Dr. Hari Lakshmanan: literally and figuratively a doctor's doctor. I could not have had a better experience. Dr. Lakshmanan thoughtfully and thoroughly discussed my current condition and clearly explained the procedure and expected outcome. During the procedure he kindly explained each step through the entire process. Kelly, Danni, and Kaos provided a calming and welcoming environment that put me at complete ease. Thanks again!

One of the security guards was very friendly, professional, and helpful. He guided us, answered our questions clearly, and made us fells welcomed However, my experience with one of the staff members at the clinic area was disappointing. She told me I could not continue with my partner and said she would return to update me, but she never came back. I was left waiting without any explanation or follow-up, which was frustrating.

I appreciate my Doctor- Dr. Meckler very much. He never appears rushed. He is patient and easy to talk with. I also appreciate his insights and suggestions on both how to improve my health as well as listen to my ideas and thoughts and incorporates them into my health plan. He is an asset to this organization.

I've been dealing with my diabetes for many years now. Dr Cai was the first endocrinologist to actually spend adequate time with me to answer all my questions regarding the type of diabetes I have and why it doesn't behave like the typical type 2 and it's treatment. Bravo to her for kindness and compassion, and her extensive knowledge. I finally feel better with my treatment plan. Thank you Dr. Cai.
