Meet Jennifer M. Ruh, MD


I have been a family practitioner in the Southtowns area of western New York for over 30 years. I am proud to continue the personalized approach to family medicine that my father (“Dr. Joe”) embodied in his practice of over 40 years in our hometown of Orchard Park. As he did, I try to take care of the patient, physically, emotionally and sometimes spiritually. I often view my role as an educator, partner and advocate. I have learned that I should take time to focus on my health to be of most service to my family and patients. I wish to share a similar prevention-focused, health-oriented philosophy of living life as fully as possible with those who aim for the same for themselves, regardless of age.

Over the years, I have developed a passion for osteoporosis screening, prevention and treatment and a desire to extend that knowledge to patients for whom it applies. With my naval aviation background, I also am a civilian senior aviation medical examiner for those who fly for a vocation or avocation. The focus of my practice is to assist people as they work toward attain more optimal health and helping them through minor or major medical issues. Being affiliated with MDVIP has allowed me the opportunity and more time to partner with patients as they pursue their health goals.

Feel free to set up a no-obligation meet-and-greet appointment to learn more about MDVIP and me. You can also meet my wonderful, long-term staff members, Kerrie and Cindy!

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.

from Felton in NY • March 10, 2024
One thing that stands out for me about the support and interaction between Dr. Ruh and my family was the time I found myself on vacation in Italy and discovering I did not have my meds. The long and short of my problem was, at the last minute while checking in for our vacation flight, instead of carring onboard our luggage, we decided to chech them. Once we were in Europe, we discovered our bags Read more...

A reflection

from anthony in NY • January 18, 2024
I retired last March 2023. In talking to Dr Ruh at my yearly medical check up shortly after retiring I suddenly realized that I have a bad family history of vascular disease (heart attacks and strokes). She suggested getting a calcium score chest CT scan. Guess what: I have early stages of coronary disease. This has led to further evaluations and good management of my cholesterol with the Read more...
