"My first impression was that Dr. Von Rueden is a quiet man but very knowledgable and he gave me hope. He seems to be a man who weighs his words before speaking them and I actually prefer that. I did not feel like I was being rushed out of the office. His office is very professional and they work together as a \"team\". I honestly don't dislike anything about him but I haven't had surgery yet. I will update later. He has a very in depth program and you must agree, among other things to go to his support group at least every other month for the first year."
