Sarah Ruwe is an excellent very intelligent doctor

Reviewed on Oct 10, 2024

Dr. Ruwe solved some huge problems with my hearing aids that have affected my quality of life and she's made a massive difference with my tinnitus. Although there's another audiologist 2 hours closer to me who is also in-network, I'm seriously considering transferring all of my audiology care to her because of this and the previous visit, even though the distance means taking at least 4 hours off of work to see her.

Thank heavens for Dr. Ruwe and the Tinnitus Management Clinic. I can't recommend her highly enough and wish the program accepted Medicaid because I know so many people who need this service!

10 Dr Ruwe did an excellent job of letting the intern perform as much of the encounter as he was able to do and then was very hands-on in teaching him about new procedures.

Sarah Ruwe is extremely thorough, taking time to explain every detail and giving me opportunities to ask questions. She clearly wants patients to be completely comfortable with decisions. I find her one of the care providers most generous with her time.

Sarah was very good. She answered all my questions and I had a few. She gave me good insight to different hearing aids. I would have trusted her to buy my hearing aids but Cleveland Clinic doesn't participate with TruHearing which is my Highmark provider for hearing aids. Sarah was very professional, kind and thoughtful. I will definitely go back to her and refer her to others.

Dr. Ruwe was courteous and professional, and made me feel comfortable. She let me know the status of my ingrown toenail, and a non-invasive treatment, using Vicks vapor rub to soften the nail, and hopefully allow me to remove the dead tissue beneath the edge of the nail after a couple of weeks of treatment. She said that if that doesn't work, during the appointment I made for January 2 she will then remove a wedge of the nail to relieve the pressure. She did tell me that if that occurs that I most likely will need a procedure to remove about a third of the nail and nail plate because the skin will grow into the area where the wedge was removed, and as the nail starts to grow back, it will cause another ingrown toenail situation. I appreciated Dr. Ruwe letting me know my options, and I opted to try the Vicks vapor rub to see if that will soften the nail, and allow me to remove the dead tissue beneath the edge Of the nail. Dr. Ruwe Did remove dead skin from the edge of the nail and clean out the area to relieve some pressure. I am hoping this Vicks vapor rub method will take care of the situation.

This Dr was amazing. She was so clear and thorough with explaining what to expect with the procedure. She conducted the procedure perfectly. She explained the results and interpretation very clearly. She answered my technical questions in a way I could understand. I left the office very impressed with this Dr. I hope she can keep that up and not become complacent. I imagine it takes a lot of energy and focus to perform at that level.

Dr. Ruwe was attentive, informative, and caring. I felt she had a thorough grasp of the symptoms I was experiencing (hearing loss), and she provided clear recommendations for solutions (hearing aids).

Dr. Sarah Ruwe had no idea that this appointment was a follow-up. I was asked what my concerns were, why I was there, and what she expected from her services.
