Dr. Rathburn is the most amazing Doctor I have ever been too. I picked him based on reviews I saw online from others and the biggest compliment that made me decide to pick him was that someone had said he was a super nice man and did not have a big ego. They were sure correct! He is just a very nice and caring doctor. He listens to your issues, will dialog with you about them and you feel like you were not rushed in and right back out the door. He has always given me great advice and is a very competent Doctor. Love him!!

I have been seeing Dr Rathburn for over 4 years now. I have found him to be an excellent caring doctor. He makes time to hear your problems and seems in my case to have had the right answers. I am a 70 year old male with major heart problems, insulin dependent diabetes, PTSD, Depression, 17 operations on my back since 1970, served in the military from 1963 to 1987 when I was medically retired, have had 6 heart attacks, and 41, operations since I retired in 1987, most minor but at least 6 major ones. For the last 4 years he and his staff have played a major roll in keeping me alive. I will also give much noted credit to his PA Jana Roberson.
