Morgan

Morgan is an avid basketball player. She began to experience pain in her shins that became gradually worse over time. “At first I thought it was just shin splints but the pain would not go away.” Morgan came to Dr. Rubin, and after getting x-rays, it was clear that Morgan had tiny stress fractures in both of her tibias. She used wraps and bandages for her shins, but she found the best results through rest. Currently she is taking a break from basketball until she is fully recovered. Morgan had a good experience here at Rubin Orthopedics and thought Dr. Rubin was cool.

Jackson

Jackson broke is radius and ulna when he fell down four concrete steps. “I was not in a lot of pain but when, but when I looked at my arm it was misshaped.” Jackson came to Rubin Orthopedics and was put in an arm cast. However his bones were not lining up correctly so he had surgery. Dr. Rubin set his bones and inserted a pin, plate and screws to keep them in place. Jackson follows up with castings to ensure the bones heal completely. Once his bones are healed he will undergo a second surgery to remove the hardware. Jackson said, “I love the staff, they’re the greatest. Little kids should especially come here if they break their bones.” Jackson’s mom also said, “ Brad is great with kids.”

Philip

Philip was on a bike ride when he wiped out causing a distal radius and ulna fracture. “I was in a lot of pain and in shock, but right away I knew I broke my arm.” He came to Rubin orthopedics within 24 hours and was put in a long arm cast. It wasn’t until he came in to be placed in a short arm cast, that they took x-rays found his bones were not healing properly. Mike (physician assistant) did a reduction and put him back in a long arm cast for another three weeks. Then he followed up with a short arm cast for two weeks. Philip is now out of the cast and his bones are healed. “The staff here was great, and mike was very good. We met with Dr. Rubin and he was very nice and attentive as well,” stated Philips mom.

"Dr. Rubin is a great, nice doctor. He let me watch him work on my toe as much as I could. Now, after all that, he is letting me play football. I hope that I make it in the newspaper so that they can see how well I play!!"

Will

"When I was on vacation last summer I fell off a wall and broke both bones in my right arm really badly. I had to have surgery to put in 2 plates and 10 screws. Everything healed and a year later Dr. Rubin took the plates and screws out. He also fixed my two scars. I feel better now without the plate sticking out. I can't wait until I can start to play basketball again. Thanks Dr. Rubin!"

Everyone has been very courteous.”

Mark

Mark was playing soccer when he stepped on the ball and twisted his ankle, which resulted in an ankle fracture. His dad called 911 and mark was transported to the emergency room, “I was in a lot of pain and my ankle had some swelling.”  The next day he went to see his primary doctor, who referred him to Rubin Orthopedics. Mark was put in a cast. Even now that his cast is off and he is healed, he still has check-ups due to the fact that he had a growth plate injury. “Everybody here was really nice to us; we especially liked seeing Ami (physician assistant). We also get the right information every visit, and they always have answers to our questions,” stated Mark’s dad.
