Dr Rubinstein was able to see me for an urgent matter. He was very thorough, patient, and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond for me and I'm glad I had the opportunity to be under his care. read more

Called to make a new patient appt which I said up front and she asked again if it's the first time I've been seen at their office. I said yes and started to explain I've had a few hand injections and she cut me off to say "but it's your first time at our office?" As if I'm dumb and wasting her time when I said I'm a new patient from the start. Sorry to hear you have no interest in why I was going to come in. Won't be bringing my business there. read more

We saw Dr. Rubinstein for an unfortunate accident that involved my son getting a severe cut on his hand while chopping some firewood. My son went to the emergency room immediately and was told by the hand surgeon that was on call that he would definitely need surgery. But couldn't do it until the next day. Thank goodness. I then found Dr. Rubinstein. After the Dr. did a very thorough examination he gave us the wonderful news that my son wouldn't need surgery after all!! He explained everything in detail and was very reassuring. His office staff was also very pleasant to deal with. I highly recommend anyone who needs a hand specialist to see him. read more

Review of Dr. Rubenstein - Thousand Oaks, CA (Hand Specialist) From the moment I walked into Dr. Rubenstein's office, I was impressed. His staff greeted me warmly and professionally, and the atmosphere was both friendly and efficient. Within minutes, an x-ray technician took me back for imaging of both my hands, and the process was quick and comfortable. Shortly after, I was shown into one of Dr. Rubenstein's treatment rooms. A few minutes later, he entered with a big smile and a kind, approachable demeanor that immediately put me at ease. He carefully reviewed my x-rays with me, explaining that I have severe osteoarthritis in both thumbs and moderate arthritis in several fingers. Dr. Rubenstein took the time to clearly explain my treatment options: Surgery to repair my thumbs Injections for pain relief A specialized gel medication to ease discomfort Rather than rushing into invasive procedures, he recommended starting with the gel to see how much relief it could provide. I appreciated this thoughtful, conservative approach, as it respected my comfort level and avoided unnecessary interventions. Throughout our half-hour appointment, Dr. Rubenstein demonstrated exceptional competence, compassion, and genuine care. He listened closely, answered all my questions, and treated me as a partner in my care. I highly recommend Dr. Rubenstein to anyone experiencing hand problems. His combination of expertise, warmth, and patient-first thinking makes him the GOAT! Steven J Eichberg, Esquire read more

Dr. Rubinstein is very thorough in his examinations and treatments and very personable. I Would highly recommend him. The quality of care is excellent and he and his staff are very personable!. read more

Dr. Rubinstein is AMAZING!...from my consultations, the morning of my surgery, the next day PO, (he came in on a Saturday, who does that...a caring soul!) to my 8-week PO yesterday! The nurses at Los Robles Surgery Center were so kind...and fun :). Dr. R. came in to mark me up, he took his time and made sure I was feeling calm and all my questions and concerns were answered. Now to my results...to say I was nervous and scared of what I would look like after my implant removal, is an understatement! He EXCEEDED my expectations!! Dr. R. is caring, thorough, and eager to do his best. He is so personable, truly a perfectionist, and a very skilled surgeon. Dr. R, Thank you and I will forever be grateful! Hugs! read more

Updated review- I'm 8 weeks post op. The morning of my surgery went well. The nurse at the surgery center was great. Dr R came in right on time and spent some time talking with me , marking me up, answering questions, and he took his time making sure I was relaxed. This is the first surgery I've ever didn't need anti anxiety meds before going in! The surgery went well, the after pics were BEYOND what I expected. I mean, amazing! I really had high expectations as it was, but this exceeded everything . I was still waiting to see how I healed and waiting to see if there was any mishaps , but nope! I flew down again for my follow up and again pleasantly pleased with Dr R . His mannerisms, care, concern, eagerness to do his best, and thoroughness was consistent from beginning to end. I look better without implants now and it's because he's a true artist and skilled surgeon. I still have one more visit to check in in a few months but I'm able to say with confidence I will be happy once again. Thank you Dr R! You've been a true gem to find and I'm forever grateful for you . read more

Watch out for the tele-consultation (phone consultation)... they charge the same as in person appointments and they will not commit to a specific call time/appointment... doctor is too busy. So if you miss the doctor's phone call on any time of the day you will get charged a penalty (no show fee). read more

I had a breast reduction with Dr. Rubinstein and just want to express how comfortable he made me feel throughout the entire process. I went through two consultations (last year, this year) because I was scared of surgery. He stated if I needed to, I could come back 20 times until I felt ready. He took the time to listen to my concerns and answer all of my questions, which made me feel at ease and comfortable with the procedure. Finally had the surgery Feb 2023 and the results of the surgery exceeded my expectations. Not only have I experienced relief from the physical discomforts I was feeling, but I am also extremely pleased with the aesthetic results. My breasts are now proportionate to my body, and I feel more confident and comfortable in my own skin. I cannot thank him enough for his skill and care throughout this process. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering surgery. read more

Just saw Dr. Rubinstein today and I'm always impressed with his professionalism and knowledge. I was treated for a trigger finger and this has been one of many times that I have been treated by Dr. Rubinstein. His staff is very personable and professional as well. I highly recommend Dr. Rubinstein. He is the best!! read more

Dr. Rubinstein is an excellent doctor/surgeon. I sustained a hand injury which caused a large cyst to develop. Four months ago Dr. Rubinstein surgically removed the cyst and the results are perfect; no evidence physically or visually that I ever had the cyst. I would definitely seek him out again for any hand issues. He's also very personable and professional. read more

I feel terrible that it never occurred to me to write a review on Dr. Rubinstein! I'm writing it now because I have to make an appointment after a few years of not needing his expertise. He treated the arthritis in both my thumbs so well that I haven't had to return for several years. Alas, all good things must end some day. I will be calling his office again, knowing that this time he may not be able to put of the inevitable surgery he warned me about. At least I know I'll have the very best surgeon. I have so much confidence in Dr. Rubinstein that I will do whatever he feels necessary alleviate my constant pain. I will not seek a second opinion. Even if you Love the hand surgeon you see now, don't pass up the opportunity to have the best. I am not alone in this viewpoint. Peggi Siegel read more

Great guy!! I was soooo scared of getting injections - biggest baby ever. Doc was so very kind and patient. I so appreciate that - and his humor. read more

Went to Dr. Rubinstein for an explant consult and he was absolutely amazing! He talked me through the entire procedure and shared some of his techniques to give me a great result. I left feeling confident about working with him. 1/5/2020 - update. On 1/23/19 almost a year ago, Dr Rubinstein performed an enbloc total capsulectomy explant (the only way to take your implants out & ensure your don't get gel bleed or bacteria from the capsules in you) and a lift and.., everything about him is wonderful! He is meticulous and concerned with not only removing the implants but ensuring you look beautiful! I had 2 breast surgeries before and although I really liked my previous surgeon, I had no idea the caring and service could be so amazing! I now know what is meant by "from good to great"! Dr RR is the man! Oh and.... my results are amazing! read more

Dr. Rubinstein performed surgery on my index finger. The procedure was pain free and it has healed well. The doctor and his staff are very kind and professional, and I highly recommend him. read more

SOOOO VERY VERY SAD to say that I am let down by this doctor. I had carpal tunnel surgery planned for months and saw him for a pre-op visit to discuss my case. I left thinking he was going to do my surgery in 3-1/2 weeks. We were on the same page, OR SO I THOUGHT!!! He called me the next day to cancel my surgery because he feels "we are not a good fit". WHAT??? I guess Roee changed his mind overnight. I am in chronic nerve pain and need this surgery to go back to work! I have had this planned for months. A relative bought a plane ticket to come take care of me. I took off the month of April from my lifeguarding job at CLU and they took me off the schedule. I'm wondering if Dr. Roee Rubinstein considered any of these things before he did a 180? Before he called me today and cancelled my surgery when yesterday he looked me straight in the eye and told me all was good and that he was going to take care of me?!!?? And then he calls me on a Sunday, leaves me this message with no return number. I AM NEXT LEVEL DISAPPOINTED IN ROEE AND THIS HAS AND IS UPSETTING my life in many ways. Another brilliant surgeon bites the dust because, in my opinion, he is not acting in the best interests of his patients. Where is the empathy and compassion. UNBELIEVABLE. So sad! read more

I want to say that my experience at Dr. Rubenstein's office was one of the most pleasant ones I have had at a Doctor's office. The staff was very warm and welcoming. I was apprehensive about going to this appointment because I knew I would probably require an injection or two and Dr. Rubenstein's bedside manner was exceptional. He made me feel comfortable and even made me laugh. I would highly recommend him. Thank you, Nora A Heisch read more

Dr Rubinstein is an amazing doctor , he is extremely caring , honest, very talented and creative. I had 4 bumps on my hand that was almost impossible to remove without leaving scars. He creatively removed all of them with almost no scars. When I need to do any cosmetic surgery in future he is my #1 choice. I am just so grateful that I have found him. I do highly recommend him and the staff are also very nice. read more

I searched for Dr Rubinstein tired of doctors who think anyone without a medical degree is dumb. He repaired two of my locked fingers (trigger finger) on my left hand. I asked to have the procedure done in his office and that wasn't a problem. He explained what he was going to do. I asked for a local and did just fine. Stitches came out two weeks later and it appears the hand will have no scaring when completely healed. Best part is I have full use of both fingers and NO PAIN. I highly recommend Dr Rubinstein. read more

I immediately felt comfortable and with Dr. Rubinstein. He is unassuming, caring and has a good sense of humor. He explained everything in regards to my procedure thoroughly and simply. I knew I could trust him to perform my breast reduction surgery. I was a little nervous about it, being such an intensive procedure. But he helped ease that anxiety going in. I am about six weeks post-op and could not be happier! He did an incredible job, better than I could've hoped for. The recovery was easier than I expected. His office staff is very friendly and organized as well. I am so pleased I had Dr. Rubinstein as my doctor for such an important procedure. I would recommend him in a heartbeat. read more

Hello Ladies, I wanted to post an honest review. That is what helped me when picking my doctor for explant/lift.I researched for months. I meet with a number of doctors. I decided on Dr. Rubinstein! I am so happy I did. He listened to my needs, did not think I was crazy. With one look he said "I can help you."He made me feel comfortable & confident that I was going to be me again. As a bonus, I treated myself to a tummy tuck as well. It turns out one implant was ruptured, the other flipped, both highly encapsulated. I am overjoyed with the entire process. He did an amazing job with what I thought was the impossible. I have really thin skin & was told that my breast were going to end up deflated & deformed. No way... He made them look better than my teenage boobies. His practice is in Thousand Oaks. Well worth the 2 hr drive for me. He will take his time, he is honest and will not try to sell you on anything extra. He will make you feel as if you are his only patient. I hope this review helps. Do not hesitate to start your journey. read more

I had a wonderful experience with Doctor Rubinstein and his staff. Doctor Rubinstein is an outstanding hand surgeon. He treats you like a person and is very professional. I have had numerous problems with my hands and Doctor Rubinstein is the only Doctor to resolve them. His work is like that of an artist. He is very precise and left me with no scaring. I highly recommend Doctor Rubinstein. He also does plastic surgery and repaired a horrible scar I had on my leg. I was told by other doctors, it couldn't be repaired, well Doctor Rubinstein did it. read more

Short version: If there was an option for ten stars, he would get ten. Dr. Rubinstein is both a top notch surgeon and a top notch human being. Long Version: I am a cancer survivor of four years now and had gone through the process of reconstruction after my bilateral mastectomy. One year after having my implants put in, I began developing all sorts of unexplained issues, so decided to take the implants out and "go flat". I just wanted to feel better and be comfortable again. Quality of life became my focus instead of hanging on to my figure I had pre-cancer. When I went back to my original surgeon at Kaiser and told her what I wanted, she did what many plastic surgeons do to women who want to remove their implants: she shamed me for wanting them out - to the extent that she said, "If you really want to go the Scorched Earth method, I will do it, but you are going to not look good at all and your clothes will fit funny. Just call a week in advance if you want to cancel the surgery." Woweeee did that shaming set me back psychologically, it was like a cancer diagnosis all over again. She even told me I am the "only one" who has ever had problems with implants, and it was all in my head. I went to Google to see if I really was the only woman who was having issues with her implants. It turns out I found THOUSANDS of women. I spent the next two years quietly watching women in a FaceBook group who shared my same story, and subsequently found Dr. Rubinstein through them. Prior to making my decision to have him be my surgeon, I had many consults with a variety of recommended surgeons over those two years. What caused me to ultimately choose Dr. Rubenstein was his ability to make me feel human and like i am a part of the process. He was communicating in a manner I knew I was being listened to. Plus, I could tell he is a total perfectionist. He wanted to get it right on the first go. He had both aspects I was looking for in a surgeon. Surgery went longer than expected. When I asked why, it turns out that he was determined to get what I wanted on the first try. Sometimes, surgeons just don't know until a person is opened up exactly how long it will take. Some surprises might be awaiting them they can't see until one is opened up. He stayed true to his word what we communicates prior to surgery. He was every bit the perfectionist I could hear in our consultation. I am only about ten days out, so am still swollen and in my compression bra which is filled with gauze to make it extra tight for a month. However, at the office yesterday, I saw myself for the first time without the strips covering where my scars will be. I caught my reflection in the mirror. I am telling you with NO exaggeration, he did a First Class surgery!! I am SO relieved and happy with my outcome. I belong to Facebook groups like "Breast Implant Illness and Healing", and others. I have quietly watched many stories. I have seen how there are average surgeons and some who should never be allowed to touch a woman's chest. I have a HUGE reference point to know this really is a top notch job Dr. Rubinstein did. For a worst case scenario, to be diagnosed with cancer and having three surgeries inside one year for reconstruction, all time find out my body reacted badly towards implants and I needed to have them removed, Dr. Rubinstein gave me a best case scenario outcome under my worst case scenario journey. In a year or so, I have plans to doll up this beautiful blank canvas with some tasteful mastectomy tattoos. Thank you Dr. Rubinstein. All of this is such a relief. And, I feel SO much better without my implants. This is me now: I am raw, organic and most importantly, I am alive. I am glad I took my time for two years watching results in other women and then having multiple consultations to decide on you. And haha, what a surprise it was to find out one of my best friends also has you as her surgeon. We always said, "My surgeon", but neither new that we both had you as "my surgeon" until she gave you a shout out on FB. Haha that was a good one. Like a two-in-one testimonial. read more

I am deeply grateful to have Dr. Roee Rubinstein as my hand and wrist surgeon. In addition to being highly knowledgeable, he has other extraordinary characteristics I highly value. From the time he walked through the door and introduced himself, his calm and confident manner put me at ease. He actually makes eye contact and he actually listens so as to respond in a manner that says "I heard you." He treated me with respect, and took time to address each of my concerns giving me confidence that there is light at the end of the tunnel. With his meticulous work, the 3 little pieces of my wrist are back in place and are healing. Dr. Rubinstein is an incredible doctor and phenomenal human being. His super-efficient and awesome staff manifest to his patients the same caring concern and respect that he shows to him. That makes for a well-run and trustworthy place to receive the highest quality care. Karen read more

I found Dr. Rubinstein on the Breast implant Illness Support group, for recommended surgeons in California. He was my first choice after researching him and I'm from LA so I drove a bit to see him for my consult. I was so nervous that day, the minute I met him it's like my nerves went away I was so at ease and that never happens with doctors. He was so patient and interested in every question I had. And his attention to detail is incredible. He really cares and you can tell he wants the very best for every patient. I adore him. His bedside manner is unmatched. My results are beyond what I could have imagined after an explant he used techniques to make them look perky and full and to keep my shape. No one can believe how amazing they look I am sending everyone I know to him. I am so blessed to have met such a doctor. I really am so happy. read more

Rubinstein and his staff were wonderful! I had a great experience from beginning to end. I drove 2 1/2 hours to go to him even though there were surgeons closer, and I am glad I did. I had an explant and mini lift and his knowledge and experience was Comforting. He has a unique technique that allowed me to accomplish what I needed with minimal scarring. I appreciate his skills so much! His bedside manner was impeccable as well! I could not recommend him more! read more

Excellent Doctor! Very professional and takes his time to explain any questions without feeling rushed.

I highly recommend Dr. Rubinstein and his staff. They have provided me with outstanding service and care. Every appointment I've had with Dr. Rubinstein and his staff has been reassuring. I had surgery to remove a tumor on my left index finger. I've had two previous unsuccessful attempts at surgery with another doctor and unfortunately, the growth returned. This time around, I had a wonderful experience with the tumor completely gone and I can now move my finger. I'm a satisfied client! read more

It was a pleasure meeting Dr. Rubenstein and his staff today. Very organized, kind, and efficient staff.

Two thumbs up! read more

Dr Rubinstein was my choice for a Enbloc/Capsulectomy, my entire experience with him and his staff and my surgery was the best experience ever. First was my consult, he took his time as I asked all my questions, he was warm, kind, and was very thorough. I had 4 post op check ups, I chose to not have a lift. I'm 60 yrs old , was worried , but was pleasantly surprised of my outcome. I highly recommend him for any micro surgery you might need. He's the best!!!! read more

I think Dr Ruenstein is an excellent doctor, a great communicator and highly recommend him. Judie B read more

I went to see Dr. Rubenstein regarding an explant and capsulectomy consultation. He was warm and understanding about the underlying health issues that lead me to want to have the procedure done. I am now one week post-op and thrilled with the results. He's a expert surgeon and a kind doctor, I can't recommend him enough. read more

To begin with a little background. I've been the only Female Ships Engineer/Mechanic onboard our Lady for almost 20yrs now on the beautiful Pacific Ocean. That being said I was also raised with a WORK ETHIC. Couple that with the tradition of Women being bad luck aboard a Ship I knew walking in I'd have to prove myself every single day until I EARNED the Boys respect. 20yrs and counting and I'm still working my ass off every day because I was raised that way. PRIDE IN WHAT YOU DO. I earned the Boys respect about a year in...FYI. So now that's been said the beating on the body after this many years working CRAZY HOURS on Steel Decks and on Compressors that at this point I truly believe enjoy inflicting pain on me had finally worked it's way up to my hands. I had been to 4 "doctors" before I finally got to Doctor Rubinstein. Man what an absolutely amazing Doctor, Surgeon and Human Being!! An absolutely GOD SEND WHEN I COULD NO LONGER USE MY RIGHT HAND AT ALL! He didn't beat around the bush and tell me I needed 500 more tests to determine what was wrong with my hands. He walked in looked at me and said "Your in a lot of pain aren't you?" I just shook my head yes. He said don't you worry we're gonna get you fixed up. He then went right to it. He did an ultrasound on both of my hands and just looked at me and said "Yep you should be in pain!" He then shot up my Left hand which i unfortunately kicked the crap out of his shins during it. The Right and way worse hand had surgery done on her 6 weeks later and honest to goodness even right out of Surgery i felt %100 better. Haven't had a single issue with it since! I just had my Left hand done 10days ago and for the 1st time in about 2 yrs i slept through the night without it waking me up! Doc you truly are EXACTLY WHERE YOUR SUPPOSED TO BE & DOING EXACTLY WHAT YOU WERE MENT TO DO! I am BEYOND THANKFUL FOR YOU & THE ENTIRE STAFF INCLUDING THE SURGERY CENTER...THEYRE BADASS! Anyone looking for an actual DOCTOR who is ALL ABOUT FIXING THE ISSUE AND NOT HAVING U PAY CO-PAY AFTER CO-PAY FOR UNNECESSARY TESTS. Doctor Roee Rubinstein is a BADASS and an even more kickass HUMAN BEING WHO GENUINELY CARES!!! Get your butts into him and let him fix what's wrong. read more

I am not the greatest writer but I am writing this review to say how happy I am with my breast reduction on July 22, 2016. Today the 26th was my first follow up and to take out the drainage tubes that were put in. I can't tell you how happy I am with my new breast my new small breast they haven't looked this good or sat this high since high school. Dr Rubinstein you did some amazing work. Your professionalism and great personality made it so easy to trust you and let you do what you do and you sure did these girls look good. To the ladies in the office thank you for calling me after the surgery to check on me. Thank you for the great energy from my first appt and the cheers when I walked out of the appt room today so happy with my surgery. What a great team you all are. I would highly recommend Dr Rubinstein and his team. read more

Recently I was sent to see Dr. Rubenstein for a deep cut on my nose. I spoke with Ruby to make the appointment. She was so sweet and accommodating. When arriving at the office I met with Dr. Rubenstein. He was such a professional with a good sense of humor. Instead of rushing into any kind of surgical treatment, he took another route. I'm doing so much better. I would recommend Dr. Rubenstein to anyone needing to see a plastic surgeon. read more

Dr. Rubenstein and his staff are exceptional. I felt like I mattered. Dr. Rubensteins skill with the shot needed in my hand made the procedure virtually pain free. He's the best!! read more

I went to Dr Rubinstein for a knot on a tendon in the hand causing "trigger finger" locking. I had the problem for years so there was quite a bit of fraying of the tendon and I wasn't optimistic about the repair. I had the surgery in the office (mostly because I've got lousy insurance that didn't cover a surgery center) and it went pretty seamlessly. Dr. Rubinstein and his staff are pleasant and efficient (no long waits, no overlapping time in the lobby because of Covid protocols, easy to schedule, costs all explained up front). Overall, I'm pleased with them, the treatment that I got and my recovery to date. I would certainly recommend Dr Rubinstein to folks needing hand surgery. read more

Dr. Rubinstein is one of the best doctors I have ever visited. He did a beautiful job on my surgery. He is so very patient, and answers all questions with detail. He never at any time acted like he was in a rush or did not have time for me. He removed my breast implants that had been in for 25 years. What wonderful work he did. Healing time was fairly quick, scaring is minimal and I feel great. I am so very grateful to have been able to be a patient of this simply amazing surgeon. read more

A stellar experience this morning, our first time seeing Dr. Rubinstein. The check in with his front office was easy and pleasant. Jamie and Laurel both exude a warm and professional demeanor and possess excellent medical communication skills. Dr. Rubinstein impressed us immediately with his attentive and compassionate manner. He was highly informed, providing us with a clear and comprehensive explanation of my condition, as well as the various avenues for treatment. His knowledge, confidence and humor made for a great experience. Dr. Rubinstein used guided x-ray to do injections in both my hands. I was impressed by the precision technique and felt no significant pain. The result of the injection was immediate relief. So happy to have found a great plastic and hand surgeon in our community! read more
