Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Terrible, don't trust this provider.

Outstanding doctor. First to diagnose my severe deviated septum, recommend a solution and do the entire procedure exactly as he described it to be. Extremely satisfied w/ the procedure Dr. Ruffy performed and thankful to have found him as the doctor to take care of my issue.

1 terrific experience : Nasal congestion surgery performed without facts and without proper diagnosis. He uses endoscopy rather than CT scan. My nasal congestion was due to food allergy and I could have solved by eliminating certain food. Now I am suffering life long , my natural ventilation in the nose is gone and gets super congested and sensitive. 2nd experience: I had an ear wax issue. He put me under a big equipment that microscope and vacuum removal to remove hair, got billed $175 omg!

I found their office to be very disorganized. I was told to take a medication for a week and get a hearing test because of fluid in my ears. I returned in 2 wks as instructed on a Friday to be evaluated for possible surgery the following Tuesday. I arrive at the office and no one knows why I'm there. Now I'm freaking out because they still want me to go ahead with the surgery without clear instructions. Thankfully my hearing test was normal which gave me a plausible exit out of this place.
