Testimonials

"Dr Ruhge is not only an incredible physician, but a talented surgeon. He is extremely patient with his clients, extremely precise in his work and produces absolutely amazing outcomes. His office staff is personable, knowledgeable and leaves the patient with great confidence in the care of Dr Ruhge. I have had many experiences with Doctors, but my association with Dr. Ruhge is among the finest." -M.M.

"I know that one's comfort level in a surgeon's office begins with the office staff; and Dr. Ruhge's assistant, Maria, was PHENOMENAL. She was ALWAYS helpful, knowledgeable, cheerful, and her follow-up with appointment times, re-scheduling, and medical information/advice pre- and post-surgery was amazing. I felt like I could call her at any time and she knew immediately who I was and helped me get my needs met. In sum, she felt MUCH more like a friend helping me--never like an impersonal office staff member. It is this personal touch that really impressed me about Dr. Ruhge and Maria; they genuinely cared about my well-being from beginning to end, and it showed in everything they did. THANK you to both of them; and if you are a Mom in Southern California who wants and/or needs their pre-baby belly back PLEASE do not shop around but RUN directly to Dr. Ruhge's office!" - J.C.

"I have never encountered a doctor that has all of the exceptional qualities that Dr. Kevin has all in one!!!! When he performed my tummy tuck and 5 years later, my breast reduction, he did an amazing job, and he was available any time of day that I needed to speak to him. His bedside manner is second to none, and his skill with the procedures is extremely precise, and as close to perfect as it gets. If one is in need of a Plastic Surgeon that will perform the most flawless procedure possible, Dr. Ruhge is the perfect physician for you. He and his staff ensure that their patients are walked through every step of the way, and the prices are very competitive. I am very blessed and proud to say that Dr. Ruhge is my preferred Plastic Surgeon, especially after shopping the entire Los Angeles and Beverly Hills areas for a top notch physician." - A.O.

"I had surgery with Dr. Ruhge about 2 years ago for a breast augmentation. I had just had my son and breasts were ruined. He consoled me and made me feel confident that I was going to look great. Two years later and I am extremely happy about the results. I get compliments all the time. I never had to wait for more than a minute. He spent as much time with me as needed. He made me feel comfortable, and set my fears about "going under the knife" at ease. His front desk girl is awesome; she is so attentive and has such a charming personality. He and his staff are extremely professional, but are so personable at the same time. Dr. Ruhge spent a lot of time with me, and was extremely patient, and answered EVERY question that I had. I have recommended a lot of friends and family to him and he has treated them with the same courtesy. He is an awesome doctor. Definitely not one of those money hungry doctors that you will find all over LA. He tells you exactly what he thinks you need and doesn’t overdo it just for the money." - A.B.

He's there for you anytime of the day or night, which includes after-hours, if you need him. The staff is professional, courteous, friendly and fun.

"Dr. Ruhge is a true professional. I had lost the definition between my neck and jaw. You could not tell where one ended and the other began. After my surgery I once again have a distinct neck and jaw. The scars are barely visible and I have stopped wearing scarves and turtle necks all the time. Dr. Ruhge and his staff are wonderful and I highly recommend him." - R.A.

"Friends and family are constantly telling me that I must be getting rest or be taking vitamins because I look so good. Even my family that lives out of town say that I look so good but they didn’t know why! I have no visible scars! The results far surpassed my highest expectations. I have been wanting to have some work done for several years because I felt I looked tired when I looked in the mirror. Now, I look rested and refreshed even when I am tired! I have so much more confidence in myself now for dating, I feel like I look the best I can look. Dr. Ruhge's staff was so personable and knowledgeable. They assisted me from the very beginning to the very end. They reserved a lovely room for me at a very affordable price; for my after surgery recovery. The doctor and his staff kept a very close eye on me throughout the process to make sure my recovery went well. I will go back to Dr. Ruhge again if I decide to have anything done in the future. He has gained my trust and confidence through honesty and expert work. I am so grateful!" - K.T.

"Dr. Ruhge is a first class Doctor, I had the pleasure of meeting him five years ago. I was referred to Ruhge by my primary care physician for a ruptured implant. I went to my first appointment with Dr Ruhge and it was an admirable experience, he and his assistant Maria are extremely professional and because I was treated with dignity and respect that I did not receive from the other two Dr's, I knew I was in a professional environment. I knew I would get the results I expected with Dr Ruhge. I felt safe with making my decision on that first visit and I scheduled my surgery. The Out Patient surgery center that Dr. Ruhge works with were all professional and he made sure that I was comfortable and secure with preparing and the process of my surgery, Dr Ruhge made me feel SAFE, and that’s important, I was #1. I have since referred 14 clients to Dr Ruhge because they see how great I look and how happy I am. All of my referrals have had multiple surgery's or other procedures and they keep going back for more because he is the best" - S.M.
