John-Paul Rue, M.D.

"As a local physical therapist, I regularly refer patients to Dr. John Paul Rue and work with many of his patients during rehab. He is an excellent physician--thoughtful, patient-centered, and clear in his communication. His approach aligns well with high-quality rehabilitation, and patients consistently have great experiences. Highly recommend!"

"Dr. Rue and his entire team have been absolutely fantastic from start to finish. My story is a long one that you may not feel like reading, so I won't bore you with the details. However, I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Rue and Mercy in general. Everyone is very personable, and you feel as if you are heard and taken care of the way you should be. Everyone is extremely helpful and knowledgeable when it comes to the various steps of your care, which there always seems to be a lot and it's normally not very straightforward. His work as a surgeon is also phenomenal. I am over a year out from my second ACL reconstruction, he was able to repair both of my torn meniscus as well (which having them repaired versus a meniscectomy is a huge, HUGE plus for me being young and active). I am forever grateful for the wonderful care I got from Dr. Rue and his team."

"I needed another knee surgery (4th surgery at that time on same knee) 2 1/2 yrs ago and I decided to go see Dr.Rue after my husband had to have arthroscopic surgery. I knew I needed another surgery after my previous injuries. Dr.Rue takes the time with his patients to explain what he will be operating on and will answer your questions thoroughly. Overall he is a wonderful surgeon and highly recommend him"

"Dr. Rue is the best! Having had little experience with doctors and no prior surgeries discovering I needed knee surgery was slightly intimidating. After an initial evaluation meeting with Dr. Rue, I understood my injury and was able to set up a timely date for surgery. Upon my arrival at the surgery center on the day of procedure the staff was welcoming and reassuring. Three hours later I was on my way home having had a positive "first timer" experience. My recovery has been both smooth and swift. I highly recommend Dr. Rue to anyone needing an orthopedic services."

"A huge thanks to Dr. Rue, PA Dashiell & the entire team at Mercy Orthopedics for getting me back to doing what I love in a very short period of time. I ruptured a quadriceps tendon while running back in April 2022 & things seemed pretty bleak when I ended up in Dr' Rue's office two days later. From my initial visit to surgery day & all the way through recovery I had nothing but a positive experience with Dr. Rue & the team. Surgery went great & I am back our running like it never even happened (a couple of months ahead of normal recovery times for this injury). I don't wish an orthopedic injury on anyone but if you need it... I would highly recommend Dr. Rue."

"I'm still recovering from rotator cuff and bicep surgery but I have to say my experience with Dr. Rue from beginning until now has been nothing short of awesome. I'd recommend him to anyone especially athletes like myself that tend to get back to things too soon."

"Dr. John Paul Rue great surgeon!! My son had knee arthroscopy. Everything was explained perfectly and everyone was very nice. I would recommend Dr. Rue to anyone who needs this surgery! My reason for a 3 and not a 5 is only because of Carla! I assume that's the Dr receptionist. Not a nice person at all. She acted as though she didn't want to be bother and had a nonchalant attitude. Why? I just don't understand anyone in the medical field to be that way. You don't like your job, leave. Or learn how to treat people better."

"Pain is no joke. I suffered and endured for so long before I reached out to Dr. Rue regarding my knee injury and just wouldn't heal. He found the issues and attempted some non invasive remedies at first and when my injury continued it's persistance, the only option was surgery. It was a minor surgery, but a major life changer for me. I have been living pain free ever since and I can not sing his praises enough. I highly recommend Dr Rue if you are looking for an expert in Orthopedics. He listens and he knows his stuff. Thanks Dr Rue."
