“jenny”
Dr. Ruan...its Linda Zimmermann. Since Jenny is not yet listed to review, i am sending this directly to you. You & your staff have been wonderful helping me navigate my medical issues & I thank you so much for that. Today was my first meeting with Jenny who has recently joined your staff. I wanted to let you know immediately how very impressed I am with what she brings to your group in the total approach to health. NO one offers what your practice does. I had the most positive appointment with Jenny in so many ways it's hard to describe in words. I leave your office with greater hope in my heart for my personal recovery today. THANK YOU for recognizing the need for someone like Jenny. I pray she will be with you for many years to come! Sincerely, Linda Zimmermann

Dr. Ruan and his staff were extremely patient and very thorough. They addressed all of my health concerns and were eager to find the underlying issues, not just treating the symptoms. I would highly recommend their services.

“Each of us hold the power to heal ourselves”
Working with Dr. Ruan has been one of the greatest joys of my life. I love working with someone who doesn't make me sit in the waiting room for 2 hours to only rush me out of his office in 15 minutes. Dr. Ruan and his team discuss your symptoms briefly... take the necessary steps to diagnose... and then work with you to construct a healing blueprint. Empowered and hopeful are two words that would best describe how I feel every time I leave his office.
