Patient Reviews
Feb 11, 2022
I was referred to Dr Rutzen by my regular eye doctor for treatment of a viral eye infection 2 years ago, have seen him for numerous visits, and recommend him without hesitation. He is one of the finest, most thorough and compassionate doctors I have ever encountered; his staff is professional and welcoming; and the offices and waiting area are bright, spotless, pleasant spaces.
