Yahoo Local Review, Jan 2026

"Nursing staff gets 5 stars, but the billing department gets NONE... We have insurance and yet we still got a bill for $1,243!!!"

Rehab.com Review

"The care I received is almost undescribable. I do not get that kind of care from any of my doctors. Dr. Rookis has improved my Urology issues... A rare find!"
