From Google Reviews

“I've been working with Dr. Hamlin and it has been a very good experience so far. My gut dysbiosis is finally starting to heal after dealing with it for 12 years. Where other traditional methods have failed me this is working. I recommend the Ruscio Institute for anyone who is tired of being sick”

- R. Lewellen

“I experienced a lot of messing around and wasted money by other health professionals for many many years previous. I rarely felt understood and so often the consultations were just another rushed appointment in their day…Not the case at The Ruscio Institute, you can tell that the people there really care.”

-Dean

“I felt like I was this chronic, super special case that must have some type of wild, hidden disease or genetic defect. Talk about a mental toll…I finally took yet another leap and invested in myself. I started working with Dr. Scott, and in 6 weeks, I saw more improvement than I did in the 12+ years with all these other doctors…It's almost unbelievable. It's WORTH what they charge. Simple and easy instructions with care and great customer service.”
