A Top Hospital in America
Mass General is recognized as a top hospital on the U.S. News Best Hospitals Honor Roll for 2024-2025.
I was really nervous for this consultation, but Dr. Carruthers immediately set me at ease and I knew I was in good hands. She listened, took her time, and was very thorough and honest. She also had a very positive attitude and was very friendly.
Very good
very thorough when explaining surgery
I really like Dr. Carruthers. I trust her opinion. She's always been attentive and warm and easy to talk to. I know that she knows what to recommend for me for, you know, this appointment and for my future follow-up. I couldn't be happier with her as a doctor. Thank you.
Dr. Carruthers was super attentive, kind, and educational during my visit. She listened to all my questions and help answered any concerns I had. She made me feel comfortable and at ease for a surgery that I am pretty scared about. It was a pleasure meeting her.
Excellent attention
This was my first visit and I was very impressed by the time, attention and care the doctor and staff showed me.
I think Dr. Carruthers is a very thoughtful doctor, very good doctor. She listens to what you have to say, explains the care plan, and then executes it. [redacted]
Great. Professional and personal at the same time. Explained all.
The doctor was great, the challenge I had is that the hospital's policy does not allow her to share photos of surgery results. That was something I could not get past, so I am pursing surgery with a surgeon who can show pictures of their results.
