Jonathan S Rutchik

I have only seen Dr. J. Rutchik once and I liked him. Yes the wait was long but worth it. Because it’s the pandemic I have been doing video chats with Lori Douglas, NP. She is wonderful and my case is a workers comp case, so she has really gone to bat for me when things she orders doesn’t get approved. I think the problem many people have with his office is really workers comp.

Only wish I could put a zero!

This is by far the worst doctor I have ever seen in my many years going to healthcare facilities. He is rude, aggressive and most certainly has no bedside manner and does not care about the patient. He obviously is only looking for that health insurance check. I was in the office 1 1/2 hours and saw him a total of 15 minutes. It was 15 minute too long. He literally ruined my day, weekend and week.

This doctors office wouldn’t get one star if that was an option. I went to the doctor, they gave me three different times that I was supposed to be there. The technician comes out takes me in the room does his part of the exam tells me the doctors on the phone will be with me shortly. And, if I’d like to recline on the table I was more than welcome, so I did. I waited so long I dozed off. I woke up 30 minutes had passed. The technician was standing in the hall looking. He walked away. I went to ask where the doctor was? they said “oh you were sleep when he came in so he took the next client”. I went back to my examination room I could hear him through the wall taking the history of another patient. I asked the staff if they could inquire as to how long it would be before he would see me? they looked up and said no. I went to the parking lot to sit in my car because the office was too cold. While I’m the parking lot on the phone, I turned around and here comes the doctor yelling at me why I’m not answering my telephone and when I look at his screen I tell him it’s the wrong phone number. he says are you going to come and take your appointment or not?” Needless, to say I immediately rescheduled with MTI with another physician. The location is the dirtiest place I have ever seen in an office. I do not recommend anyone go there….EVER!!!! This doctors office wouldn’t get one star if that was an option.

I was totally disgusted by his attitude and treatment of patients. From what I observed it was not just me. Unfortunately, I was stuck with him due to it being a workers comp case. I wish there was a zero rating! How does this guy even have a medical license? He is extremely rude, condescending and unprofessional! On top of that he is just a plain jerk. He does not care about his patients at all! The way the office is run is just a mess. It seems like they don't have much of an idea what they are doing. It seems they over book on purpose, to squeeze as many people as possible through in one day. It's very obvious his only concern is running as many patients through his office as possible to generate income.

Absolutely horrendous office. The worst doctor anyone in my family has ever had the displeasure of getting stuck with!

This was the worst doctors office experience ever. This doctor does not care about the patients, he appeared visibly annoyed that I was there and said “What do you want from me”. He was unprepared, blamed me for his office not having the paperwork I sent in. It was all rushed and the entire visit was completely unprofessional. Please stay away from this guy!

I Absolutely Would Not Recommend. It was a 2 1/2 hour wait time. Rushed appointment with very brief examination. He was very abrupt, intimidating and interrupted my responses. I wrote my issues to not waste time during the appointment and attempted to provide him with the list to which he stated, "I don't want your list". He made recommendations but never followed through with submitting to insurance to be approved and scheduled. Insurance made several requests for the report over a 3 month period. When it was finally received it was a very poorly done cut and paste report that had multiple errors, wrong name in multiple places and billing references to services not provided ( 20 mins of counseling on stopping smoking- I've never smoked, 20 mins training in meditation) during the very brief visit. I waited months for an appointment and was extremely disappointed. Total waste of time and delay to my recovery. Can't give 0 stars to Rutchik so his kind staff earned him 1 star.

Rude and vary much doesn't care about u me anyone I will not come back to see him agin iM going to turn him in i.v been waiting for my report for almost a year and my workers comp guy is outraged I will not see him ever I hope his family hates Dr rutchik

There isn't an option for no start but Someone needs to report this doctor. He should not be allowed to practice. He abuses patients physically and mentally Patients get referred there not knowing what they have coming. He's even more abusive with non English speaking patients.

The worse doctor ever. Every body run away from him. Rude,unprofessional, incompetent, doesn't lisen your health problem at all. My husband and me, were in his office 3 time unfortunately bc it was a Workers Compensation injury. My husband couldn't anymore decidet to change the doctor Not sure how a person like him can be a doctor and take care of people in need for help. The worse doctor ever. Every body run away from him.

As too many people have already stated, this guy is the worst doctor I have ever had the displeasure of seeing. He is rude, aggressive and completely uncaring. He left my arm bleeding after slamming probes into my arm. Didn’t care to go over his initial findings with me and basically told me “you can leave now” after turning his back on me as soon as he finished slamming probes into my arms. Don’t go here unless you have no choice..

I read the reviews while sitting in the office. True...a long wait. No receptionist present. Almost left! So glad that I didn't! Dr. Rutchik did a great job! I had this done by another Dr. and it was horrible! Dr. Rutchik was very nice and friendly. Works hard and seems to care. Be patient and hang in there. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

this doctor do my emg test staff is friendly and nice except dr rutchik hes so rude and rushing ,agressive well go there and try .office located howe sacramento ca.

Technician was great. Explained everything. Little pain. Then doctor Rutchik came in looked rushed. Spent time on computer. Looked like the data was already in and he just changed a few words. Weird. Very painful procedure, some blood specks. I started yelling it hurts (on my post op leg) and he said he did not do anything with the 2 inch needle in his hand and face of the kid in the cookie jar. Yes he was doing his procedures, but they were painful and one lasted almost a minute. I sat up and it still hurt, like a burning spasm. Sitting up fast unfortunately triggered a spasm in my abdominal area. Not a good experience. When it was over, with his back to me, he said "You could leave". He had pushed the stool under the table and he was sitting next to the gurney. With his back still to me, he did not move. He said "You can leave" again. I told him I could not get down without the stool. I scooted to the right and just slipped off the table using my good leg and got out of there. Technician was great. Explained everything.

One of the most unprofessional physicians I have ever experienced in my life and clearly in the business to run as many patients through his mill as possible without regard to anyone's time but his own, recommend to avoid him at all costs. Gets referrals wrong and then blames you and puts the onus of a correction on your shoulders. No return phone calls from his office. Show up for appointments and get told I didn't have you scheduled (despite getting reminders from his office). Wait time 1-2hr.

I have never written a negative review, but I simply have to warm others. I would never recommend this doctor to anyone. He hands down has THE WORST bedside manner I've ever experienced. He was aggressive, impatient and rude. I don't believe he has an ounce of compassion for his patients. I feel traumatized by the experience I had today. If I could give him zero stars I would. The only thing positive was his assistant that conducted my nerve test. He was very kind, and caring.Avoid Dr. Rutchik

I went to he's office howe sacramento staff is friendly except this dr.rutchik hes so agressive and rushing,he doesn't care if your in pain hs continuing what hes doing im scared that day cant for get that happen to me ,he cares alot about money not you i strong recommend you try go there and experience the truth.

I would give 0 stars if I could. Dr. Rutchiks takes on so many patients at the San Francisco office and makes everyone wait way past theor appointment time. My 1st appointment I had to wait 1 hr and 30min past my appointment time. The entire visit lasted 3 hours. He talked over me did not examine me on the 2nd visit only asked questions which he could have done over the phone. Wasted my time and cab fare. Very disappointed he goes by the other doctors have said in their reports.

Wait time, yeah.. Bring a book. Rudeness, ask questions then interrupt you when answering. If you bring your spouse in he'll tell them to be quite? Rudeness, unorganized, & quite frankly I think he's just doing it for the money. Seek out a different doctor.
