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.

Wow. We miss Dr. Ruffing since his retirement. Happy for him. Sad for the Upstate.

Seen this warlock twice, first back in 2002 or 2003, then back in 2017, this person is one of these docs that think you have to be in death's parking garage to be considered disabled, he looks on the outside, but he can't see the inside, and how the heck I end up at his place beats the socks off of me, avoid this broom riding warlock at all costs if it is possible.

Shows strong bias in determining disability. Seems to only consider Down Syndrome as a disability and nothing else.

Wife had a right, per federal law, have husband present during her examination, and Ruffing said he new she had that right but he would desire if it was needed. This was determine by him as a matter of course and preference by him. Said we could go to someone elce. Breaking this appointment would have resulted in denial of disability claim.
