The care and concern that Dr. Rubin provides is exceptional. Dr. Rubin is the only physician who has taken the time to know me not just my medical record. I had my kidney transplant in 2009 and Dr. Rubin has been there for me since day one. I cannot say enough about her care and concern. I have been blessed to have her as my physician.

Dr Rubin is an exceptional Doctor. Her knowledge, foresight and ability to see through the obvious is amazing. Her ability to communicate (which means translate medical jargon to the uninitiated) is something to be followed. What a special physician to have part of my team!
