I would like to comment on the excellent care I received during 2 visits to see Dr Ruzicka. Nothing was any trouble and he went out of his way to explain everything in great detail. I would highly recommend Dr Ruzicka to everyone and thank him for such care at a sensitive time. Mike Knight

I was very comfortable with Dr Ruzicka and he explained everything about my condition in plain language which I understood. He also appeared to carry out thorough tests and there was no pressure to leave in any hurry and he listened carefully to me whilst making notes. I would have no hesitation in recommending Dr Ruzicka to friends and family. Lawrence Cleary
