Overview

I have been practicing in hand surgery since 2002. I find the complex anatomy of upper extremity fascinating, hence my interest in hand surgery. The patient population I see ranges from toddler to patients in their 90s and beyond. My approach to taking care of patients is to take time to listen. I try to relate to my patients by finding out a bit about them other than what brought them in to see me. I find that by doing so, I can team up with my patients to treat their orthopaedic injuries and address their concerns arising from the injury or chronic condition. I find it gratifying to help my patients recover and humbling that patients trust me to be part of their recovery journey. Outside of work, I enjoy gardening, sewing and spending time with my family.

I am an orthopaedic surgeon who is the chief of hand surgery at Duke. Although we are referred to as “hand surgeons,” I treat many people with wrist and elbow conditions. Because the hand is so complex, patients who see me can have complaints that range from numbness and weakness to issues with range of motion. My grandfather, my grandmother, my mother and my father were all health care workers. I have wanted to be a surgeon since I watched M*A*S*H on the television as a child. I obtain great satisfaction from treating someone who has a very severe hand or arm injury, reconstructing the part and restoring its basic function. Duke has been the strongest hand surgery program in the country for the past 50 to 75 years. As chair of the program, I want patients to know that the best and the brightest providers are seeing them when they come to Duke. Dr. Ruch is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Tennis Elbow. His top areas of expertise are Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Tennis Elbow, Rhizarthrosis, Osteotomy, and Bone Graft.
