Dr Ruggiero Sr is a nice man and genuinely cares about people but has no business being a doctor anymore. He wasted my time and money with therapy for a shoulder injury when I have needed surgery from the start according to 2 other surgeons. Great bedside manner and his staff is very nice, but his doctor skills are outdated in my opinion.

Dr. Ruggerio replaced my knees 9 years ago, so when my hips started bothering me, he was the obvious choice. I have my legs back because he did what other doctors would be do & I have my life back!

Dr Ruggiero has done multiple surgeries for me. I have had nothing but the best care from his office. I had my rotator cuff done, and partial knee replacement. He has been a wonderful surgeon, doctor and care giver. I never had issues with pain management , physical therapy or recovery. I will be using him again for my knees.

Dr. Ruggiero has treated my entire family at one time or another. I have two very active children who end up needing an orthopedist more often than I would like, but we have never experienced a problem from this office.
