I have always wanted to be a doctor since I was in seventh grade. My passion for helping people return to a healthy, active lifestyle led me to become an orthopedic surgeon.

I enjoy taking care of patients at Gwinnett Clinic because it provides an opportunity to offer a multispecialty approach to patient care.

Currently, I am learning more about Little League baseball rules for my sons and competitive dancing routines with my daughter.

In my community, I enjoy trying new local restaurants and hiking various trails.

Some of my favorite hobbies include working out and playing with my kids. I also enjoy watching sports and attending concerts.

My clinical interests focus on sports medicine, particularly issues related to shoulders and knees.

Dr. Ruffin is absolutely the best! From surgery to follow up visits, very thorough everytime.

Healthgrades

Got in an out quickly. Front desk and nurse were great. Dr. Ruffin was thorough and explained everything in an easy way to understand.
