Michael E Ruff

I dearly love Dr. Ruff. He has such a tender and compassionate spirit. He made my thumb so much better. I highly recommend him.

After getting two other opinions I was told about Dr.Ruff,he's an amazing surgeon! I had bilateral carpel tunnel surgery a month apart and I wish someone had told me about him years ago! I refer him often!

Dr. Ruff is an amazing Dr. He made it possible for me to use my hand again after I got it caught in a machine at work and ripped everything out of my hand down to the skin and tendons in my palm.

Dr Ruff performed carpal tunnel surgeries on both my wrists several years ago when he was at Hand and Microsurgery Associates. The surgery was effective and my recovery was rapid and uneventful. My only regret was that I waited so long to have it done! As a musician, I was understandably nervous, but I needn’t have worried. I can recommend Dr. Ruff without reservation. :-)

He performed four surgerys on me.and is the most talented surgeon in America and really cares about his patients.

I had a Carpal tunnel diagnosis from a doc at OSU who had me get a wrist brace because he thought the situation did not warrant surgery. I have a high tolerance to pain and the brace did nothing to alleviate it. I could not sleep the pain was so bad. A friend recommended Dr. Ruff to me and I went. I told him the situation and FINALLY someone heard my voice! Dr. Ruff did carpel tunnel surgery and I have not had any problems since then! The office staff and surgical staff are wonderful too!

Dr. Ruff committed malpractice, and did a surgery on my hand that did not need to be done. After the surgery, he said to me: I'm sorry, I was wrong about your hand. My wound from the surgery remained open for a month. I had to go to a wound specialist to correct Dr. Ruff's mistake. He is the worst hand surgeon I have ever known or met.

He is the kindest and most considerate physician I have ever known or worked with. He takes time to answer every question and his skills are excellent.
