Dr. Ronald James Ruff, MD

Worst experience ever. This DR was out of line while doing a spinal tap. Apparently I wasnt numb enough to get punctured and tremendous pain shot down my leg and numbed both feet. The pain caused me to scream. The angrily inconvenienced Dr yelled at me to tell me where the pain was. I was breathing heavily from pain and could hardly talk. Then he yelled again that I need to tell him where the pain is, even though he did not stop. After an hour of hurting me and the back pain, he announced he would have to move to higher area in my spine. I was scared to speak or yell in pain as he appeared angry. My pain was in his hands and he was taking my screaming in pain personal. I feared he would intentionally hurt me. His dislike for me was obvious. I hope no one ever goes through this. Almost 24 hours later and I cannot stand for too long without discomfort in my back and abdomen.
