So sorry to see Dr Ruzicka leaving he was a great doctor to have. With him leaving and having to find a new provider it's hard to say what medical provider we'll seek out.

Bill Ruzicka is the best Primary Care person that we've ever had. My husband and I are in our mid 70's so that's saying something

I've been with Bill Ruzicka as my PCP for about 7 years now. He has always been an exceptional provider. Two years ago I myself became a FNP in family practice/PCP care and can truly appreciate how hard this job is and appreciate all that Bill has done for me and continues to do. He goes above and beyond for me and my care. I feel he truly cares about my health.
