my experience with dr rutherford was great, he listened well, didnt rush in making decisions, didnt interrupt, or assume anything without proper reasoning and evidence - mainly i trusted that my health and well being were his focus, like it should be. Highly recommend him

This review is not for the doctor himself because I could never get to him unfortunately. Rian Rutherford was assigned as my default PCP and I tried calling his office for a full month before having to change my PCP because the office staff never picks up calls. My condition worsened and I had to go to ER because of that. I am not even sure how this clinic is operating and in business. Worst ever!

I'm wondering & wanted to ask the person behind 'HE'S A GREAT GUY' were you a patient of Dr Rian Rutherford? And, how long has he been a Dr at the Neuro dept at S.C.H.C.? And WHY was he seeing patients at the 'Specialty Clinic' for neuro physciatry since his special is FAMILY PRACTICE? And, to the other poster 'Annonamous' I really hope you are well & I really wish that I could talk to you - seems we have something in common!

Dr Rutherford has been seeing me for about 2 yrs. He is one of the only doctors i have ever seen that makes you feel totally at ease. He is very busy and getting in could be a bit of a wait, but he's worth it. He works in the neuro dept. of the center and really listens to what is going on with you. I have had several issues coming on and off of meds and he is always very intent on making sure you are well. His staff is awesome and very courteous. I would see him anywhere he went. You still need your GP for other things. but in his field I trust him, he's young and MOSTLY all i can say is if you meet the criteria to be seeing him then I would 100% say try to.
