Patient Reviews
Feb 20, 2021
We went to Holy Cross Hospital in Germantown by ambulance because my husband was acutely sick with what was diagnosed as a severe infection resulting from a biopsy. The emergency room and following hospital stay was awesome with Dr. Ruth and staff being very attentive and caring. We were extremely grateful and appreciative. Then Dr. Ruth followed up with calls and video visits and made sure we were protected with probiotics as we healed with antibiotics at home. We thank her for wonderful care!
