Dr. Rubal is exceptionally skilled and truly one of a kind—an outstanding physician in every respect. My only regret is that I did not find her sooner. For months, I felt that something was wrong, but conventional doctors dismissed my concerns and gave me very few options: wait and see, or proceed with IUI or IVF. But there is another path: restorative reproductive medicine, which Dr. Rubal practices. After a comprehensive evaluation and an in-depth discussion of lifestyle, nutrition, environmental toxins, and other factors, Dr. Rubal identified the root cause of my problems and immediately developed a plan to restore my health, optimize my fertility, and ultimately help me conceive. Dr. Rubal helps you understand and heal your body—an invaluable gift that is also far less expensive than more invasive fertility treatments. She listened carefully, fully respected my perspective, and understood my circumstances. Dr. Rubal is brilliant, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and meticulous. Her recommendations are based on years of clinical experience and the latest research. I am deeply grateful to be under her care, and with her guidance, I feel confident in every decision we make. She is also an exceptional person—genuinely kind, thoughtful, caring, funny, empathetic, and respectful. Dr. Rubal has been part of our team from the beginning, and having someone like her beside us gives me tremendous peace of mind. Dr. Rubal sets the standard in women's health—no praise could fully express our gratitude. We sincerely thank Dr. Rubal!

I recently saw Dr. Rubal for the first time, and I have been excitedly telling people about it ever since. I am not joking: everyone around me knows how hard I have worked through infertility, so when they ask what is new, I enthusiastically tell them I found Dr. Rubal. Within the first ten minutes of our meeting, I could tell she was different from other doctors, and I have seen many. She immediately invested her energy in my case. She took the time to carefully review all the medical history and laboratory reports I had previously provided. I had spent a great deal of time gathering these records for other doctors, but they never reviewed them. Even when they did, they did not find them useful. This made me realize that she truly was different. Only a few days have passed since our first meeting, but I keep comparing her with other doctors whom I highly respect, especially those I have seen before. What impressed me most was that I have often felt heard and respected, but no one has ever made me feel as thoroughly understood as Dr. Rubal did. By the end of the call, she knew my entire medical history, while other doctors had only skimmed the surface. We finished with a clear action plan and specific next steps to identify what was missing from my current treatment. She engaged deeply with every detail I had shared, making me feel that we were building on existing knowledge rather than starting over. I also want to say that she was extremely generous with her time! I am certain she spent far longer with me than scheduled. In previous consultations, I had started asking questions after receiving the results, only to be told, “Time is up.” I knew that would not happen this time because she had already been so generous with her time. This was absolutely the best new-patient consultation I have ever had. I left with a clear action plan, knowing that she understood my goals and genuinely wanted to help me achieve them. I felt deeply encouraged. For the first time in a long while, I felt motivated and inspired to continue the process! Thank you, Dr. Rubal!

After struggling with infertility for 8 years and experiencing a failed IVF cycle, I came to Dr. Rubal feeling discouraged and searching for answers. From the very beginning, she truly listened to my concerns and took the time to investigate the root causes affecting my health and fertility. Dr. Rubal quickly identified several underlying conditions, including endometriosis, PCOS, insulin resistance, prediabetes, high cholesterol, and other issues that had gone undiagnosed for years. She recommended a GLP-1 medication as part of my treatment plan, and after just three months, I feel like a completely different person. While I am still on my journey toward pregnancy, I finally feel hopeful because Dr. Rubal is helping me heal the underlying causes rather than simply treating symptoms. She is an exceptional physician with extensive medical knowledge, profound empathy, and a truly compassionate approach to patient care. She listens carefully, communicates clearly, and makes you feel genuinely supported every step of the way. I highly recommend Dr. Rubal to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and caring doctor who truly advocates for her patients.

Dr. Rubal is an exceptional physician whom I highly recommend. Her expertise, attentive care, and genuine compassion were exactly what I had been seeking. She takes a holistic approach to fertility and women's health, looking for root causes rather than temporary relief. She practices restorative reproductive medicine, which she says offers pregnancy rates comparable to or higher than IVF with lower cost and less physical burden. It also aligns with my faith, and I am glad I trusted my instincts and found her. From my first visit, she made me feel heard, understood, and respected in a way I had never experienced with other OB-GYNs. She asked meaningful questions, ordered comprehensive examinations and tests, and clearly explained every result. She carefully reviewed each laboratory result to identify causes and optimize my health. Her personalized, practical plan focused on long-term recovery through medication, supplements, and lifestyle changes, all within three visits. The relief when she found the source of my problems is hard to describe. Her attention to detail and genuine investment in my health gave me hope. I had felt dismissed during my fertility journey, but meeting her changed my life. I finally found a doctor I fully trust and feel I am moving in the right direction. She is an exceptionally rare physician, and I am deeply grateful for her care. She felt like an answer to prayer. There truly is another approach: fully restoring reproductive health.

Working with Dr. Rubal during our infertility treatment was a pleasure. She is kind and understanding while also being direct. She is knowledgeable, explains things thoroughly, and truly gave us control over treatment, recommending next steps without pressure. I also appreciated her willingness to respect our beliefs and mindset, adapt treatment to our circumstances, and use a holistic approach. If you are struggling with infertility or concerned about irregular periods, contact her. You will not regret it!

My husband and I are so grateful that a friend who knew our story referred us to Dr. Rubal. We had been trying to conceive for about 3.5 years and had endured 2.5 years of fertility treatment, miscarriages, and every other stress along the way. Every previous doctor rushed through appointments, barely listened, and pushed medication at me to force ovulation instead of finding the root cause of my anovulation and miscarriages. Dr. Rubal did exactly that. She listened thoroughly to our story from beginning to end and immediately began creating a plan. I learned things about myself and my body that other doctors had never told me. Finally, a doctor who will advocate for me! I will update this review as our exciting journey continues. I feel hopeful again and believe I will soon become pregnant! Thank you, Dr. Rubal!
