I was new to the city and saw Dr. Kristina Ruff for foot problems. She seemed nice but after seeing her multiple times she not only wasn't able to give me a proper diagnosis for my foot (it literally seemed like she was guessing every time) but she also wasn't sure what treatment to provide (each time I went in she would suggest a treatment, which again seemed like she was guessing, then I would leave and come back in a week with the same if not more pain). She just seemed completely incompetent. I get that sometimes you have to try different treatments to see what's best, but as a doctor shouldn't you at least know what direction to go in and not just prescribe inserts or wraps or whatever that only ends up causing MORE pain?? Then to top it all off, she's seen my foot swollen and seen me in pain countless times, yet when I asked if she would confirm with my work that I have issues with my foot and can't stand on it at times when it's inflamed, she told me to go to a neurologist for my fibromyalgia and have them sign off on it.....WHAT???? She's taken X-rays and told me that the bones in my foot and ankle are a bit messed up and that I have plantar fasciitis and nerve damage in my metatarsal area, which are all issues specifically within my foot that are causing the pain...yet she tells me to have a neurologist vouch for me because it's not a foot issue it's fibromyalgia??? Are you kidding me??? Absolutely wild. I am beyond livid. I've never met a doctor this incompetent. What a joke. So much time and money wasted. Save yourself and DO NOT SEE THIS DOCTOR. read more
