Dr. Ruthann Frances Rees, MD

Valentine’s Day 1995, my wife had given birth (C-Section) and was bleeding to death. Dr Rees was quickly asked to provide an opinion. She inserted herself in the care process, took the lead and saved my wife’s life. I believe God places people in your life at his choosing. Dr. Rees was our angel that day. What an impact. She saved my wife and in turn, saved mine.

I was a patient of Dr Rees for 14-15 years. She even delivered both of my children. She removed fibroids from my uterus that according to the pathology report were mitotically active; a hysterectomy was recommended. During a conversation I had with Dr Rees, she told me she had never seen this before. I sought a second opinion from a cancer gynecologist since she had never seen what I had before. He ended up performing my hysterectomy. I had an issue 8 weeks after my surgery, I wanted Dr Rees to make sure there was not a tear in the cuff and when I went in for that appointment, I saw a side of her that I had never seen before. Her first question to me was why I got him to do my surgery as opposed to her. She then started critiquing my scars, yes, my scars! She said she would have left fewer and smaller scars. She said so you had someone else perform the surgery and now you want me to fix it? I replied that I wanted her to look at it. She examined me and prescribed some cream to help… with the healing. She made sure to let me know her patients heal from her hysterectomies at 6 weeks. When I asked about a follow up appointment she told me I needed to go back to the doctor who performed the surgery. She then got up and left the room. The nurse practitioner was still there and she told me that Dr Rees was “highly insulted” when she found out someone else did your surgery. I asked if Dr Rees was going to see me again to which she replied, she will see you for your paps and such but NOT about this again. I could not believe what I was hearing or what just happened. I feel like she took it personally that I got a second opinion and had someone else do the surgery even though it was something she said she had never seen before. I will never go back and find it hard to believe that professional doctors behave in such an unprofessional way.

I would use anyone else!

GREAT DOCTOR

Dr. Rees is a wonderful doctor. She performed my hysterectomy and made sure I understood the procedure and was comfortable with everything. Afterwards, she was also very informative and answered any and all questions I had. I recommend her to anyone.

I highly recommend Dr. Rees. She has performed prolapse surgery on my 80 year old mother and a hysterectomy on me. Both surgeries were flawless and life changing. I have complete confidence in Dr. Rees and tell others about her.

Always professional friendly staff.

Dr.Rees is wonderful, simply delightful. I have recommended her to a large number of friends. Dr.Rees listens, cares and offers wonderful care and advice. She truly is amazing. She had delivered 3 of our 4 daughters and helped us through a miscarriage. She is highly professional and treats you with respect and her office staff is wonderful. I feel that Dr. Rees takes care of you the way she would want to be treated. It's disheartening to read the sleepy comments on such a talented Dr. as she is and completely bogus. I have been a patient of hers for over 15 years and have nothing but the upmost respect for Dr.Rees what a total blessing and incredible doctor she is. She is in total control whether it be in her office, labor and delivery or surgery room!! High recommend her without hesitation.

I have had the privilege to be under Dr. Rees' care for 3 years now. She is not only educated but she is wise as well. She is warm, welcoming, and honest regarding all aspects of your health. My experiences with her and her staff have been nothing short of wonderful. I work in healthcare as well and know quite well the physicians in her field and she is by far the biggest advocate for her patients. She is patient centered in her practice and patient focused in her decisions. She is great at addressing your concerns and questions regarding your health and will be 100% honest with you and also empowers you at the same time to advocate for yourself and your health. She and her staff were phenomenal through my first pregnancy in which i miscarried. And they were just as phenomenal through my 2nd pregnancy in which i carried full term. My birthing experience was great and she was so calm through it and so encouraging. I wouldnt want anyone else to deliver my children. And because of her… diligence and care my husband and i have a beautiful healthy baby boy and i had a great recovery with zero complications. I'd recommend her to anyone!

Dr. Rees has been my doctor for over five years. She has delivered two healthy babies! She has also been there to reassure me and support me medically and emotionally during a miscarriage. She even treated me long distance while I lived in North Carolina after my miscarriage. I found out I was pregnant with our second child while I was in town. She did tests and ultrasounds just to put us at ease. We moved back and she delivered my second child. Now I am pregnant with our third child. I needed to have knee surgery during my third pregnancy (it had to be done). Dr. Rees again advised me,reassured me and comforted me during a very scary time. She was there during my knee surgery just to make sure things went well and to be supportive! Dr. Rees is only a phone call away. Her staff has always remained prompt, organized, and attentive!! I could not ask for a better doctor!!! We consider her a friend and loyal doctor.
