"Dr. Rufner is the BEST! He took a lot of time during my appointment to explain my G.I. issues and devised a plan for treatment and further testing. I found him to be patient, caring, knowledgeable, and thorough. I highly recommend him for any G.I. issues. He is far and above other G.I. doctors, I have seen in the past."

"I have had ulcerative colitis for about 20 years. I was diagnosed when I was in 4th grade. Over those two decades, I have had doctors who don’t take into account how I am doing. Just what my test results say. Dr. Rufner is not one of those doctors. Of course, he relies on test results, but he also values my own personal feelings a lot. He is also VERY up to date on the latest science and has some well-informed suggestions on how I can best manage my condition. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Rufner to anyone looking for help!"

"Dr. Rufner was honest, clear in his communication style, and warm. I felt comfortable from start to finish at my appointment and he was great at giving a full explanation of what would or would not be cause for concern. Though the place wasn't a fancy office space as I have seen in most clinics, I wouldn't let that sway your decision. The gal at the front desk was super friendly and I felt like they cared about me as a patient. I recommend this practice!"
