From the moment I met Dr. Rucker, it was clear this was not a rushed, check-in-the-box appointment. She took genuine time to listen to me, not just my symptoms, but to my concerns, my questions, and my history. What stood out most was the thoughtful, probing questions she asked during our visit. Rather than simply accepting what was provided, she wanted to make sure she fully understood my situation before making any recommendations. That kind of thoroughness is rare and deeply appreciated. I left the appointment feeling heard, informed, and genuinely cared for.

Dr. Rucker seems like a nice person, but I didn't feel like I had her full attention. She was rushing around (not sure why, as no other patients there) and my impression was that she wasn't very interested in my situation.
