Dr. Rubenstein really IS an amazing doctor. I read the reviews and thought patients were being overly effulgent...but now I would like to join the throng! He takes the time needed. Explains everything in layman terms. And is professional AND charming. (This guy breaks the mold.) I highly recommend him. I was referred to another hand specialist closer to my home but read these reviews and decided to try the good doctor. There is a reason why he is getting 5 star reviews across the board! read more

I was searching for a surgeon to remove my 13 year old implants and after some research and recommendations I decided to go with Dr Rubinstein. As others have mentioned, he is very kind and attentive to all questions. I knew from the very first Skype consultation that I was going to be in great hands. My procedure was last week and today I went in for my follow up and I am healing just fine and I'm very happy with my results. read more

Saw me for 5 minutes in the hospital. Did not listen to my concerns regarding facial lacerations. Then charged my insurance $660 dollars then said I owed on top of that another $600. Horrible bedside manor. 5 minutes cost over $1000. Was one of the worse doctors that I have seen. read more

I am so happy my doctor referred me to Dr Rubinstein. He is an amazing hand specialist and his staff is awesome especially Rose. I am very happy read more

I absolutely loved Dr. Rubinstein! He is the kindest most passionate doctor that I've ever met. Not only did he not make me feel like i was losing my mind but actually listened to my Struggle with BII. I explanted with him last week 3/21/18. It was the best decision I have ever made!! Thank you Doc...and your amazing staff!! and ladies the heal is real :) read more

I really liked Dr. Rubinstein and his staff! Everyone was super nice, acted like I was an individual person, not just 'another patient'. He spent a lot of time with me explaining things and he listened to me, I felt like I was actually conversing and not just dictating. I have decided to have my wrist surgery with him. read more

Amazing doctor and staff! I took my 14 year old that broke his wrist. Jamie was wonderful, squeezing him in to an already full schedule. Everyone in the office put us both at ease. Dr. Rubinstein was so good with my very nervous son about having to have his bone straightened. And the actual prodedure went off perfectly. I can't rave enough about him and his office...a special thank you to Jamie and Nicolette as well! read more

Dr. Rubinstein performed my en bloc explant surgery. His bedside manner is wonderful. He's very funny & reassuring. He explained all of my options in depth & thoroughly covered which option he thought I would be most happy with & why. His staff are helpful & kind. The surgery went well & I am happy with the results. He was very attentive to me when I had complications with pain meds & answered questions quickly, even after hours. Can't say how thankful I am for Dr. Rubinstein!! If you're considering him for your procedure, rest assured he will take great care of you. :) read more

Friendly, accommodating office staff and an outstanding, personable doctor make this THE practice to visit if you need these medical services. Would not hesitate to go here again. Thank you Dr. Rubinstein! One more thing: three weeks after the procedure on my finger, and there isn't even a visible scar! And this was after Dr. Rubinstein dug down deep enough to scrape the bone (while chatting with me the entire time)! Clearly the man knows what he's doing! Respect. read more

Dr Rubinstein is excellent and the staff is exceptional. Very happy with laser hair removal results.

He is among the best doctors I have ever been to (and I've been to a lot). He kept me calm during a procedure, had explained everything clearly and was exceptionally knowledgeable. He quickly knew what was wrong with my wrist. I am typing this review 24 hours later and my wrist is back to normal after 2 months of suffering. I wish he was a general practitioner so I could see him for other issues. Stop your search if you need a hand specialist - you found the best! read more

Dr. Rubinstein and his staff are the best. I've been a patient for over 2 years and every visit has been nothing but care and great service. Dr. Rubinstein is very professional, friendly, humorous, and very medically skilled. On my first visit he was able to look at my hands and detect a diagnosis. After some confirmation testing, his diagnosis was correct. I feel in complete care with Dr. Rubinstein and would highly recommend him to anyone. read more

Dr. Rubinstein himself is a great doctor. I first saw him for a fractured finger and now to have a lump removed. I have previously had the lump removed twice by another doctor and it came back both times. There is never a guarantee that it won't come back, but what I really appreciate about Dr. Rubinstein is his confidence in the work he does. He assured me this is a procedure he does all the time and he is pretty confident he can take care of it. Many other doctors are very hesitant to remove it after me telling them it has has been removed twice and has come back both times. Dr. Rubinstein is down to earth and knows how to makes his patients comfortable. I had the procedure scheduled for today to get the lump removed by Dr. Rubinstein. When I got to the office, the girl told me she did not have me scheduled at all. This was very frustrating as I was able to pull up the exact date and time (4/16 at 10:32am) that I had made the appointment with them in my phone log. They just told me all they had on record was that they left me a voicemail on 4/12. I understand we are all human and mistakes can happen, but what frustrates me the most is that nothing was done to try and make it right. Instead they told me the next earliest appointment they could give me is over 3 weeks away. I took the day off of work to get this procedure done today, had my boyfriend also take the day off (who had to fly in to be here), cancelled a tennis match and was taking medication Dr. Rubinstein requested to prepare for it, all for nothing. So so frustrating and completely inconvenienced!! I would highly recommend Dr. Rubinstein but would also highly recommend getting appointment details in writing to avoid any miscommunication. Hopefully the procedure goes better than the scheduling. read more

I have known many Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons in our area. I worked for one most of my adult life. When I had a an accident and mangled my left index finger with an immersion blender, I thought for sure I had lost that part of my finger. Los Robles Hospital conferred with Dr. Rubinstein, and did the best they could. They sent me home with instructions to call Dr. Rubinstein. I called the office and they were very kind, compassionate and professional. In walked Dr. Rubinstein and he said he could fix it. He sutured my mangled finger and worked on the fracture. I came back a week later and I had my finger back. Sure, it needs more healing time but it looks and works like my finger before the accident. We needed some new talent in our area, most of our surgeons have aged out. I highly recommend Dr. Rubinstein. He has a great bedside manner and as the ability to assure you all will be okay. THERE IS A GREAT PLASTIC SURGEON IN TOWN. read more

This doctor did an explant of my breast implants. He did a lift at the same time which left me deformed. I had beautiful nipples before the surgery and now they are deformed. I have had to have 2 corrective surgeries (one he did at his cost because the surgery was that botched). I will have more surgeries in the future. In both surgeries at two different surgery centers, I had nurses ask me privately why I had chosen him to do my breast surgery. He is not a trained breast surgeon. He is a very caring doctor and tried to do the best he could. However, I felt like he learned how to do surgery at my expanse on my body as the test subject. It's just wrong at so many levels. I specifically asked him to do a very soft lift and he did not. Again he is a very caring doctor but at the end of the day I didn't need someone to hold my hand. I needed a doctor who had had experience with the surgery on breasts like mine and he didn't. I am left with ugly, deformed breasts and no feeling in my nipples and that is something that is hard to live with considering what I started with which was beautiful breasts and full feeling even after other lifts and breast feeding. It has taken me a long time to accept the new breasts I have which didn't have to be like this and honestly I'm still having a hard time with it. I do not recommend him for breast surgery. read more

This is my second time to see Dr.Rubinstein, he's amazing hand specialist, he really nice and caring dr, he's the best ! I highly recommend! The staff very nice ! I love all the girls working for him too ! read more

I don't usually write reviews but Dr. Rubinstein and his staff deserve a rave review! Dr. Rubinstein made me feel at ease with his sense of humor and his confidence. He performed a very challenging scar revision and I am very happy with the results. He was very frank and he explained that my condition has a very high risk for recurrences but he gave me detailed instructions to minimize it from coming back. I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family. The staff is SUPER friendly and the office is super clean! read more

I have seen quite a few plastic surgeons about some health issues I've been having with my breast implants and he is the first person that didn't treat me like I was crazy. He was so respectful and so kind and heard out all my symptoms unlike anyone else. Before my consultation he had a questionnaire on a tablet regarding bii symptoms (breast implant illness) which isn't widely accepted yet so that's why so many surgeons have told me nothing is wrong with me. He is intrigued about what I and so many other women are dealing with and I've never felt so comfortable with any type of medical professional. You can tell he really cares about it clients and is willing to go above and beyond for them. I had a laundry list of questions for him and instead of me driving 3 hours to get to him (I live in Palm Springs) he called me and answered all of my questions, took about 35 min haha (sorry Dr!) anyways, chose dr. Rubinstein for any of your surgical needs, I promise you won't regret it read more

I had pinkie surgery from the famous Kerlin Jobe 7 years ago and my hand never got better after that surgery only worse. I was referred to Dr. Rubinstein and he had me work on a few things for about a year but as my pain increased it was surgery time. He did just an amazing job and not only can I make a fiat without pain I am already back at the gym. He is young, smart and really listens to my problems. I'm so happy to have met him. Surgery is no BS and this guy did what he said he would do an I feel amazing. read more

I went to Dr. Rubinstein for a reoccurring right ring finger injury. I was a told by another Doctor that I had to live lack of motion and constant pain. I could not even make a fist. During my initial visit, Dr. Rubinstein, told me I can help you with your injured finger. He took x-rays and gave me a shot in my right ring finer. He suggested I see a Physical Therapist in Simi Valley. Between the shot and the P.T. my finger started to fell much better. By the end of P.T. my finger felt as if it had never been injured. No pain! Complete motion! I was able to make a fist! If I had listened to the Doctor, I saw prior to finding Dr. Rubinstein, I would still be in constant pain, discomfort and would not have full use of my right hand. Dr. Rubinstein's staff is as exceptional as Dr. Rubinstein is an exceptional Doctor. If you have any hand or wrist issues I highly recommend Dr. Rubinstein. Don't waste your time with any other Doctor and give Dr. Rubinstein a call today! Thank you so much Dr. Rubinstein read more

Great doctor very thorough, very professional and extremely courteous and informative.

Dr. Rubinstein has been one of the best Doctors along with his staff, not often that you get smiling friendly staff EVERYTIME! and even though ive see Dr. Rubinstein a couple times he is always attentive, explains and answers all my questions and always reassuring. I had my 1st surgery with him and so far so good still have to be careful. Thank you all for being so kind and caring. read more

This is the only hand doctor you want to see. Very professional staff and the dr is great. He took care of my elbow quickly and resolved the problem completely. I can't recommend them enough read more

On the recommendation of another physician, I made an appointment with Dr. Rubinstein to examine my painful arthritic right index finger and I'm so glad I did. He showed me the x-ray of the finger, explained the source of the pain and then in plain English what the options were for my treatment: another shot of cortisone (I had had 3 previous shots spaced 3 months apart with other providers; Dr. Rubinstein pointed out that the shots become less and less effective over time) or surgery. I chose another shot which has given me some relief which I now know is short term. Should I opt for surgery, fusion, in the near future, Dr. Rubinstein allayed my fears indicating that I would be able to bend the finger as much as I'm able to do now, but without the pain. I feel better now that I know what to expect. The office is bright, clean and welcoming. The staff who were on duty (Jamie and Alina) were friendly, courteous and helpful. If you have my symptoms, this is the place to go. read more

Was referred to to Dr.R, and thank goodness he has helped me a great deal with twitching tingling hands and elbow release. His staff was very helpful every step of the way. read more

Excellent service and the most professional treatment. Doctor Rubinstein is truly one of the best I have ever experienced. He spent enough time explaining everything and was extremely nice and pleasant doctor. His staff were also very friendly, accommodating, and professional as well. I will definitely won't hesitate to recommend Dr. Rubinstein to everyone. read more

Dr. Rubinstein and his staff are AMAZING!!!!! I had a partial finger amputation and he was able to save more of my finger than what was expected. Simply said... My wife and I are so grateful for him and his staff. I will always recommend him to anyone in need! God Bless Dr. Rubinstein, his family and staff. read more

I fractured my hand in two places quite badly in a motocross race. A friend of my mom's had recommended Dr. Rubinstein and from my first visit, I knew I was in good hands (no pun intended). He examined the X-rays with me, took the time to explain things and I was very confident going into my surgery. Surgery went well, I have had two follow-up appointments and both have been excellent. Dr. Rubinstein is very professional but also is very personable. He referred me to a great hand therapist and I my recovery has been very good. Carol and Taylor, his office staff and nurse are very nice, and a bonus is that he is usually is on time for the appointment you have. I will have my next follow-up in four weeks and I expect that my hand will be in great shape. read more
