I recharge a bad experience at another cancer center and Dr. Ruzevick made me feel so much. I don't have enough words to express my gratitude for this doctor.
Dr. Ruzevick and [...] are absolutely wonderful. I am so happy to have found them and proud to be a patient of theirs.
Good experience with Dr
Dr Ruzevick and [...] are awesome!
Dr. Ruzenick is incredible I got the best care ever.
My care provider had a plan already in place and believed everything I explained.
Dr.Rusevick was very kind, he made us feel at ease, his medical expertise was a great comfort to us
Dr. Ruzevick was prompt, kind, very knowledgeable, he explained my problem so I could understand and he put my mind at ease.
Dr Rusevick answered our questions and guided us through the next steps of care
I was extremely encouraged by the approach Dr. Ruzenick took. He was personable, clear, knowledgable about my case, and ready to treat my issue as urgent. And it is.
Dr Ruzevick has a very warm bedside manner and excellent delivery of treatment
Very professional, answered all my questions. I felt very well taken care of.
The care from all three doctors that I worked with was excellent. First, I was able to see all three in the same day which made scheduling much easier. Second, Drs. [...] & Rusevick are all excellent at explaining my condition, asking clarifying questions, and answering my questions about upcoming procedures. I would absolutely recommend the UW Medical Center to anyone needing medical care. My experience showed a desire by all involved to go above and beyond in providing excellent care to their patients.
Dr. Ruzevick was phenomenal at explaining the condition that I was referred to him for and did a far better job than the referring physician in my home town. I was much relieved when the visit was concluded.
