Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I have had a marker in two blood tests that indicate I might develop multiple myeloma. This appointment reassured me that the marker has not changed and that my PCP rather than the oncologist-hematologist, Dr Ruzish, will initiate and evaluate whether the marker stays the same or elevates. If it elevates, I will again see Dr Ruzish. I appreciate her hand-off to my PCP. It will save money and time.

Excellent provider. She supported me through two cancers in 13 years. I would not want any other care provider.

Very disappointed with her and her staff. The last visit to her office was with her PA and my husband could hardly hold his head up and she told my husband "you need to get up and do things and didn't want him just lying around like a slug". My husband told them he could not take the chemo pills anymore and instead of trying to help with his condition they said if you don't take the medicine they could not help him. He passed away in Jan 2018 and not one ounce of compassion. Shame on them!
