Patient Reviews
Sep 07, 2016
Dr. Ruiz kindness and compassion comes through in everything he does, from speaking with you on difficult diagnosis' to discussing care options, he is a wonderful provider and physician. A little delayed in getting results of testing, unsure if that is office practice issues, but he is well worth the wait.
