Dr. Ruiz and his staff are the absolute best! They are so kind, everyone from the people at reception to the medical assistants to the doctor himself. We were super nervous about this visit, but they immediately put us at ease. Dr. Ruiz spent a lot of time with us, explaining my husband's situation in terms we could understand. We left the office feeling like we were in very good hands. What a relief to have found a medical team that truly cares! Highly recommended.
