Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Dr. Ruhlman "Your Orthopedic health is not only my passion, but is very important to your quality of life. To that end, I trained in Orthopedic Surgery locally at the University of Washington and spent additional time at Harvard training in the complex disorders affecting the Hand, Shoulder and Elbow. I look forward to using what I have learned to give you the highest quality, world class care. I also understand that your injury affects more than just your arm or your leg, so I aim to help you understand your injury and so we can work towards your specific goals and needs"
