Very good. Dr Ruzevick and his team have been phenomenal throughout our journey from admission to discharge to followup. We always felt like we were in the best of hands and they had our best in mind.
Dr. Ruzevick is excellent. He was late (ovet25 minutes) due to conflict. He took the time to listen and answer my questions. When I was concerned about being late to next appointment, he told me he would call and let them know. That allowed me to feel better that I could not feel rushed and get my questions answered.
Dr. Jacob Ruzevick was friendly, personable and empathetic. His knowledge of my situation and confidence in his assessment was very reassuring. He followed through on his referrals for future treatment the same day as my appointment.
