Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 11/21/2019, Dr. Ruff has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
listened to my concerns regarding an "standard" exercise that I took issue with
very good experience and had a resident with her and she was very patient and excellent with her
Excellent
dr. Ruff is the best. She spent 45 minutes with me the last time we spoke and went into great detail recommending actions and listening to my perspective on every single issue. I recommend her to others often.
It was our 1st new pt eval and I felt very confident that I choose the correct provider. She requested some blood test to be done which I will as soon as corona 19 is clear
Very thorough and attentive. Very easy to understand . Made me feel relaxed and comfortable enough for open discussion and to ask questions.
She always takes time to talk to you about any concerns and helps to give you information on them. She is always friendly and professional.
Very friendly and professional.
all good, very thorough and spent a good amount of time with me. Never felt rushed
I cannot say enough about Dr. Ruff. she is very caring and such a good listener. she's the best.
