• Dr. Rodriguez has shown genuine care, compassion, and support to me and my family throughout our experience. He always takes the time to listen, answer questions, and treat us with the utmost respect and kindness. His dedication to his patients goes far beyond what is expected. He has been incredibly supportive and has consistently gone above and beyond to ensure that we receive the best possible care. Knowing that we have a physician who truly cares about both his patients and their families has made a tremendous difference during challenging times.

• Was scheduled very far out and an opening just happened to come out of nowhere but the dr did not need to stare at a computer and start reading my chart. He had taken the time to KNOW why I was there and was amazingly nice and was not afraid to touch where he needed to touch which is rare these days. They just kind of look. He took the time to let me be comfortable in the setting and gave me the time or opportunity to say in my own words what I was looking for from the visit. Being a person who takes a minute to get my thoughts in order, I really felt that he actually cared and was going to try his best to help figure out my issues.

  2026-02-13

• I am still waiting for the testing and follow up that we discussed to be scheduled. Is anything else needed to make my nerve damage improve

  2026-02-13

• Dr. Rodriguez has been a godsend. He has helped me deal with my headaches for a long time, for three years, four years, and I thank him very much. He's very professional and he's very knowledgeable and he's very comfortable. He doesn't scare the heck out of me as some doctors can be just rude and just to the point. He's very to the point, but in a nice way. And that's really good about Dr. Rodriguez because it makes you feel more comfortable and less scared of situations of your condition that can be really scary. And he's a very professional, so is his staff, and I'm glad I got to have him be my neurologist. Thank you so much. He's very professional.

  2026-01-22

• The first, and only neurologist i've ever seen that I actually liked. I've had epilepsy for forty years and refused to see neurologists because they are arrogant and all knowing. Doctor Rodriguez takes a time to listen to you and work with you. He is truly amazing.

  2026-01-18

• Definitely will see him again

  2026-01-15

• Always perfect

  2025-11-12

• Very concerned and professional.

  2025-11-12

• Dr. Rodriguez is one of the most straightforward doctors that I have seen at the Partners. He was sincere in telling me my present condition would not be improving, but continue to diminish my mobility, but there were things I could do to maximize my quality of life. His understanding that pain would be a permanent ongoing concern was transmitted to my PCP for action. The Dr. made be realize that I should be pragmatic in my mobility and the dangers in trying to exceed reasonable exercises. I am glad to know that my future of living with this neuropathy doesn't have to look foreboding. As time goes on I will come back to ensure I follow his advice in these elder years. I now enjoy much lesser anxiety with this condition. Glad to have conferred with him.

  2025-10-22

• Dr Rodriguez is incredibly kind, patient and open to what his patients have to say. I am very lucky to have him as a neurologist as his wait list is very long (it is for a reason). Mass general WDH is incredibly lucky to have him

  2025-10-22

• My complete appointment was very positive. The doctor was outstanding. The nurse that took my vitals was also very pleasant. The whole experience was A1. Thank you.

  2025-10-22

• Of all the doctors I've ever seen, Dr. Rodriguez is the best. He listens to all my questions and concerns and immediately follows up on them. I took my wife in with me and he talked with her and asked for her input which I felt was extremely helpful. She was quite impressed.

  2025-10-15

  2025-10-09

• Dr. Rodriguez was great. He apologized for things that happened and how things were handled during his time off. He discussed my results and what we needed to do moving forward and made me feel like he cared about me and the amount pain I am in. He offered the next step which was something I had wanted to discuss based on my research. I love the provider and the time he generally takes (The visit when he was about to go on leave did feel rushed but considering the circumstances I do understand to an extent) There have been multiple frustrations with the office and how things are handled but overall I like Dr. Rodriguez. I had considered finding another provider after how the my experience with the office itself has been but ultimately I do like Dr. Rodriguez

  2025-10-08

  2025-09-29

• I meant to tell the doctor that I fell last year and I looked like crap when I fell. That's when they put me back on medicine. It was, I went back on medicine because I fell and I was resting my leg like the doctor told me and I rested my leg and I was sleeping on my couch and I was resting and I had my pajamas on and I didn't do my hair and I was resting my legs cause I hurt my knees. when I fell and I was resting like I was supposed to. And I still haven't gone back to work since a year ago when I fell. And they put me back on bad medicine when I fell. They thought I was doing terrible and I was doing great. I was doing good at work. I was, I was happier. I had more energy. I wasn't so lethargic.

  2025-09-24

• I was very much at ease with the Dr and very pleased with the manner in which he explained everything. The same sentiments with the RN who I saw first!

  2025-09-14

• Dr. Rodriguez is exceptional. He and my primary doctor are the best providers in their respective roles I've had since my first visit to WDH in 1971-72, when I moved to the area. They ask probing questions when needed instead of "yes/no" general ones, provide thorough explanations/options, and listen to my concerns. Whenever I'm asked I always recommend each of them, as well as the other persons I have dealt with in my experiences with WDH.

  2025-09-10

• He listened and was very easy to talk to

  2025-09-10

  2025-09-07

• Extremely happy with the care and caring attitude of Dr. Rodriguez. I'm very happy with him being my neurology care provider.

  2025-09-06

• Amazing, thoughtful, empathic, took the time to answer questions and make sure we understood. Thorough exam. Offered availability after appt through portal to answer questions that might come up after and facilitate referrals. I had been hospitalized at a Non MGB facility for a stroke two weeks prior. Provider was a beacon of light, stability, realism and knowledge. Thank you!

  2025-09-05

• Dr. Rodriguez is great! He listens and he remembers my issues from one appointment to the next. He is concerned about giving me say in my care. The one small critique I would make is to speak more slowly with the elderly so that we can have time to process what is being said.

  2025-09-04

• Amazing!!!!

  2025-09-06

• It was very good. The doctor was very friendly and answered questions when needed.
