Dr. Rutherford is a very kind and professional orthopedic specialist. During each of my multiple visits, he did not rush in and out, he listened and was patient with my questions as I best tried to understand and absorb information about my possible diagnosis. I appreciate his genuine ability to care about his patients' health, healing process and overall well-being. I like that he doesn't rush into surgery options, but encourages our treatments first. I highly recommend Dr. Rutherford!!

He was very professional and personable. He asked questions so he could understand my future plans and how to fit his recommendations in the scope of my life. He spoke of options and then gave his recommendations which changed after unsuspected MRI results. He went over the films and reports to make sure I understood. He did not push an agenda and answered all my questions including questions about new and experimental approaches. He’s great.

I’m very pleased with Dr. Rutherford. He is professional but easy to talk to, listens well, and is the first orthopedic surgeon to have given me relief in my knee in years. He also understands and explained the issues I am having. I’m glad to have found my new surgeon.
