I broke a finger and was really concerned it may need surgery. Dr. Ruhlman calmed my fears and directed me to properly wrap the injured digit. Really a confidence builder.

I visited Dr. Ruhlman in the Wallingford office several months ago for some left knee/IT band pain. I could not recall injuring my leg, but was unable to run because of the discomfort. In the end, I decided to "watch and wait" and ultimately the pain went away just as spontaneously as it had started. I appreciated how Dr. Ruhlman was friendly, approachable and seemed to have more of a collaborative vs directive manner to his care. Not that I hope to have any orthopedic issues in the future, but if I do, I will gladly seek the care of this provider again.

My son recently injured himself while playing high school football. A friend of mine referred us to see Dr. Ruhlman. I was able to get an appointment for my son to be seen urgently the same day. The appointment was in Wallingford. All of the staff were very nice and courteous. I was a very nervous mother but everyone made me feel at ease. After an exam and x-rays it was determined that my son had a clavical fracture. The doctor explained the diagnosis and treatment options thoroughly. My son was in pain but very concerned about healing and returning to the game. Dr. Ruhlman was able to diagnosis and treat my son while making us both feel we had been referred to the right doctor. Although my son will not be playing football for awhile, he is happy that he will have a full recovery. I will recommend this office and Dr. Ruhlman to anyone with a sports injury.

I am so pleased to be able to be seen by Dr. Ruhlman! He is a spectacular doctor. I injured the back of my thigh by tearing my hamstring. I was seen in the emergency room and was afraid of what the treatment would mean-- would I need surgery? Would I be able to work? Would I even be able to get seen? I was able to get in for an appointment at Dr. Ruhlman's office the very next day. It was very reassuring and wonderful to be seen right away. The people at the front desk were really kind and there was no wait. The medical assistant was knowledgeable and helpful. Dr. Ruhlman was able to explain what to expect from a hamstring tear and how the physiology of healing would work, including what would be most helpful to do at home. He referred me to physical therapy which is available there at the office. I was able to return to work after only a week, where I walk an average of 5 miles a day. Dr. Ruhlman is clearly brilliant and yet can make very clear exactly how to recover from an injury. I had some additional questions several days later. My call was returned within a half-hour from a wonderfully kind and reassuring physician's assistant. Overall, I would absolutely recommend this physician and his practice to everyone!
