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.

Very knowledgeable and reassuring.

Wonderful physician
I have been under Dr. Ruan’s care for several years. She is a kind and brilliant physician who never rushes the visit. She is well spoken, explains everything in calm & easily understandable detail. So glad to have her as my physician.

She’s the doctor of my dreams
Dr Ruan is my hero. Eighteen months ago I was told I could live maybe 2-4 more years with a very intensive, ongoing course of chemotherapy and possibly a bone marrow transplant. But my doctors and I knew that with my over-reactions to most any medication (including all antibiotics), I could probably not tolerate even the first round of chemo. I did my research for “non-chemo treatments“ and found Dr Ruan, who told me I can live for decades with her protocols. She totally involves me in my treatment decisions, respects my preferences, and is never in any way condescending. Eighteen months later, I am in fine shape and living almost my normal life (but with a few more medical checkups than other 73-year-olds).What a refreshing difference!

A competent and compassionate advocate
Dr. Ruan diagnosed my leukemia 10 years ago. She carefully explained my prognosis and treatment options, and helped persuade my health insurer to cover an immunotherapy that was then not common but which turned out to be very effective for me. I am lucky to be well, in remission still eight years later. and confident Dr. Ruan will help if I ever need additional treatments.

Long term experience with Dr. Ruan is outstanding
I have been under her care for five years. As a employee of a large pharmaceutical company I am very knowledgeable about healthcare. The knowledge of Dr. Ruan is extraordinary, a true professional in her field. One would be hard-pressed to find a more competent doctor in this category on a national basis. A true professional.
