Patient Reviews

Patient

My experience with Dr. Edward Rutkovsky was so astonishingly bad that I feel obligated to warn every potential patient before they walk into his office. His staff called ME and told me I needed to come in for a blood pressure follow-up. I rearranged my day, arrived on time, and then sat there for over an hour while Dr. Rutkovsky was nowhere to be found. No update, no courtesy, no apology -- nothing. When he finally decided to show up, he gave me under three minutes. Three minutes. After making me wait an hour. For a medically serious situation that is actively impacting my daily life. But the part that truly floored me -- the part that still has me shaking my head -- was hearing a cardiologist in 2025 tell me he "doesn't think POTS is real." Read that again. A heart doctor, in the year 2025, claimed that POTS -- a condition recognized by every major medical institution in the world -- isn't real. This is a condition validated by: * The American Heart Association * NIH * Cleveland Clinic * Mayo Clinic * Johns Hopkins * Stanford Medicine * Vanderbilt Autonomic Center * And literally decades of peer-reviewed research For a cardiologist to deny the existence of a thoroughly documented autonomic disorder is beyond outdated -- it's reckless. It signals a terrifying lack of continued education. It also explains exactly why he provided zero guidance, zero referrals, zero effort, and frankly zero care. He admitted he doesn't know much about dysautonomia but still didn't point me toward a single specialist. Not a name. Not a phone number. Not even, "You should see someone else." Just dismissal and confusion. My symptoms are severe. They are life-altering. And I walked out feeling ignored, belittled, and genuinely concerned for any patient who relies on him for anything beyond routine blood pressure readings. And honestly? After this experience, it's no surprise his Google rating is a 2.7 out of 5. It's painfully clear I'm not the only patient who's been treated with this level of disregard. I am requesting a full refund for a visit that was not just unhelpful, but emotionally damaging and medically irresponsible. If you value your time, your health, or a doctor who actually practices evidence-based medicine, stay far away from Dr. Edward Rutkovsky. This was not just a bad visit -- it was a red flag I don't want anyone else to miss.

I wont give the office 5 stars at all First of all. The office is too busy .. that's normal.. but its old and not clean at all I saw dr Edward.. and I had a stress exam done to me 2 weeks ago.. no one called me to tell me th he results.. I called the office 2 times and they told me that the cant give me the results till the doctor sees them .. are you kidding me?? 2 weeks and the dr has no time to call a patient I it's better to go to different offices to someone who care about their patients and give them the attention they deserve

Patient

I was waiting for a hour to be seen by Dr, Rutovsky and once I was in the exam room I overheard a nurse say he was out getting coffee. I walked out but not after getting my co-pay refunded. The office is small, dirty and in the stone ages. Plenty of other good doctors out there.

Patient

New system doesn't work 1 1/2 wait. Office is a mess.
