Valerie Ruff is amazing, simply amazing. the compassion, understanding, knowledge, kindness, concern I cannot come up with enough wonderful words to describe how a patient feels after an appointment with Dr. Ruff. she covers EVERY nuance of a situation. she explains everything in terms that patients can understand. when I see Valerie outside of an office she never fails to ask me How is everything'. Sometimes people greet just to greet. You do not get that impression when Valerie asks you. I feel blessed to have found Valerie and be able to have her be my Dr. I know I'm not the only one as I have spoken to many or her patients and EVERYONE loves Dr. Ruff
