Patient Reviews
Apr 17, 2024
Dr. Rutherford and his team helped me walk again with a successful hip surgery. My stay at NCSH was comfortable and the service exceptional. Emerge PT for me was extremely competent. I am coming up on my one year visit with Dr. Rutherford and can’t wait for him to see how well it’s turned out. Several months ago I received a recommendation from Dr. Rutherford’s office to enroll in a weight loss program called Prescribe Fit. I enrolled and that too has changed my life. For those of us that are carrying excess weight know all too well how hard it is to lose it. Prescribe Fit sent me an electronic scale paired to a cell phone app and once a week I speak with a counselor who has helped me immeasurably get back to better health. Thank you Ms. Kay B., you are icing on this wellness cake served up at Emerge.Thank you all.
