My husband and I had an absolutely horrible experience with Dr. Michael Ruma at Perinatal Associates in Santa Fe. We went in for an ultrasound when I was 36 weeks pregnant. The ultrasound was supposed to be a longer, more comprehensive ultrasound to check on baby’s heart. Instead, the entire scan, performed by a very young tech, took 15 minutes. Afterwards, Dr. Ruma waltzed into the room, spent about 5 minutes looking at the images and then told us, quite confidently, that our baby had an abnormal heart. He said most likely Ebstein’s Anomaly or Transposition of the Great Vessels. Both require multiple surgeries and are rare. In fact, he told us Ebstein’s only occurs in 1/20,000 births. When asked if he had diagnosed it before he said “no” but he was confident he was right in that our baby had a serious heart defect. He did not reference any imaging to back this up. He told us to go to see Dr. Patel, a Pediatric Cardiologist, in Albuquerque. My husband and I left in total shock. I was sick to my stomach for days and neither of us could sleep.
A few days later we got a 1 hour long cardio echogram and met Dr. Patel. We were told baby’s heart is NORMAL. Nothing wrong.
Dr. Ruma is an irresponsible and arrogant doctor. His ridiculous diagnosis was not even remotely accurate and he gave it without having clear images and without the knowledge required to give such a serious diagnosis. I would never see him again under ANY circumstances and want to warn other women that this man is dangerous and grossly unprofessional.
