Rating & Reviews
We appreciate having Dr. Christine Rukasin as our child's provider. Our son thinks she's awesome.
Great experience.
It's always a pleasure seeing Dr. Rukasin. She is so easy to talk to, and is very considerate of your questions and concerns.
Provider always really helpful always willing to help and makes my child feel comfortable in every appointment
Doctor schedule my next appointment and consider the distance in driving my child for care. She was very helpful
I had all three children there for simultaneous penicillin challenges. Two of my kids have bad anxiety. Nurse and doctors were fantastic at helping them through it all and calling the panic attacks. My middle son even said, when we left, 'that was actually fun.' (He also think it's great you call it a challenge (instead of a test) but that's a cool fun thing to a kid.) They also loved the certificates the got at the end. Those seemingly little things make a big difference to kids. Dr. Rukasin and the staff are all great and my kids would all like to say thank you.
Dr Rukasin is kind and caring and listened to my concerns. She spoke to my son directly and made him feel really comfortable. This visit was worth the wait. Thank you Dr Rukasin.
