Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Office was extremely discourtest to my mother
My 92 year old mother arrived 30 minutes early for her appointment to aleivate toe nail discomfort. She was told to fill out the neccessary forms by the office staff and although she had gotton through most of the questions, that she would need help with a couple of questions. At that point, she was told in a rather mean way, 'you can't be expected to be seen without the completed forms', she was reschedule in 3 weeks and told to fill out the forms at home. She left shaken. Her friend also has found a different podiatris due to the unfriendly atmosphere of this office.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Ruggiero?
This should be one of the top 10 doctor's in Rhode Island. He treats with his heart and cares for every patient as of they are the most important person in the world not just the town I mean the whole world. He is an honest trustworthy person and I trust not only my life in his hands but my children as well. You need to look no further for a foot doctor because he is the best ! I have a medical condition which will require care for the rest of my life and he will be my only provider. Thank you.
