    Dr.Rugg is phenomenal!! The only Peds Dr. Ive met that I leave with peace over any concerns with my children. She's very informative! Very concerning and caring! I recommend that Dr.Office because of Dr.Rugg! I will follow her anywhere because it's hard to find a Dr that's caring, informative and that listens to your concerns. She's a blessing!

    I really appreciate Kate Rugg asking about my son about his feelings In reference to his (new) school, his grades, plans for his future, not giving in to peer pressure, and surrounding himself with goal-oriented friends! (I actually found out information about his career aspirations!) This type of care is treating THE WHOLE CHILD.
