Testimonials from patients of Dr. Eckert
Dr. Eckert means so much to me in so many ways. On one occasion 2-3 yrs ago - I called her when the office was closed. It was summertime, and I was constantly vomiting. I’m not one to go to the Emergency Room, but when she heard me on the phone she encouraged me to go to the ER right away to avoid real dehydration problems because it was so hot outside. I am so glad I did because even with… See more
My husband and I have travelled the journey of Parkinson’s for over 25 years.. For years he navigated the disease, working full time and circling the world professionally and pleasurably. As the years progressed he slowed down and Parkinson’s symptoms affected more of his daily routine.

Dr. Eckert, Charlene, and Shelly give me the best care and attention. I always feel like I am their only patient when I am in the office. They are incredibly responsive whenever I call or text. Fortunately, I have not had anything serious in my life, but I know I am in excellent hands should I ever experience anything complex.
Let me first say that Dr. Ruth Eckert (our Primary Care Physician) has a marvelous staff. They are both personal and professional. Their knowledge and experience is only matched by their ability to follow up on any item that needs their attention. Truly Great! And, for something that makes me really appreciate Dr Eckert it is her familiarity with my medical record--and I'm talking about… See more

I Joined MDVIP In 2021. Dr Ruth Eckert is my physician and has been the best doctor I have ever had. She listens, takes a lot of time with me, and explains everything thoroughly. She is extremely knowledgable, and well read, as respects the most current medical advances and updates. Her suggestions, and practical solutions, regarding test results, immediately put my mind at ease. Her… See more
Every time I see dr. Eckert is a special moment! She has been my primary care doctor for 40 years! She is always very caring and you know she is sincere about your health and wellness. She was especially caring and compassionate when I lost my husband four years ago. I was upset because I had not been strong enough to stay with him his last few hours. “He was alone,”. Dr. Eckert reminded… See more
