comment from patient satisfaction survey

I had a great experience with Dr. Rupke and her very competent and professional staff. I was always treated with respect. Any questions I had were answered the same day I called. The staff told me to continue to call if I had any questions. I appreciated their concern.

We are so grateful for Dr. Rupke and her staff who handled my daughter’s situation and coordinated surgery the same day! Couldn’t have asked for better care!

Dr. Rupke is very professional, talented, and very thorough. She is experienced and knowledgeable about the process and procedure of ankle fusion.

Survey Feedback

Dr. Rupke and her team were wonderful. Dr. Rupke was both informative about my condition and comforting, as I was very nervous. Prior to the surgery, she provided professional care and I recovered quickly. I need another surgery on my other foot and will request Dr. Rupke again.

Survey Feedback

I am very appreciative of Dr. Rupke and her team to get me in for surgery in a fast manner and come in on a non-surgery scheduled day. I would definitely recommend her and her team to anyone I know. Thank you again!
