She is patient and very human.

I asked to see if I was dilated. I am 37 weeks and felt cramping. It felt like I had to argue to have her do it. While checking to see if I was dilated, it did hurt, a lot more than I anticipated. This is my second child. She was NOT very patient with me and did not even walk more through or make me feel comfortable. Even when I screamed and said it hurt she continued to push her hand through and said “well you see this is why I didn’t want to do this”. I felt extremely uncomfortable and she never even apologized or asked if I was okay. She wanted me to hurry up and sit up and i was only moving slow because I am huge. I just felt like I was being rushed and none of it was pleasant. She asked if I had swelling in my hands or feet, and proceeded to tell me I had very skinny ankles. I didn’t appreciate the comment. She is the only doctor I have ever had an issue with. Everyone else has been patient with me, kind and respectful. She then proceeded to tell me that I have to get induced at 40 weeks. I do not have any complications or issues at this time. I was trying to have a discussion with her and I felt she did not want hear me out and made me feel I don’t have a choice. This is my body and I know I do have a choice. This experience was unpleasant, uncomfortable and I hope she is not my doctor for the next few appointments. I’ll take anyone else.

She was really kind and helpful.

She is great

She was overall great. Communicated clearly, heard me out for my own concerns with working out, and was kind.

Due to the reasons above. I would seeing someone else after this visit.

She’s kind, helpful, listens to and answers questions, and gives information in a way that’s easy to understand.

She is knowledgeable and kind. She listens to your concerns and provides thoughtful feedback and solutions.

Ruth was so amazing. I felt comfortable asking her questions and she took the time to explain everything to me.

She was extremely sweet and caring and explained everything very patiently

See comments above about Ruth.

Very informative Very helpful Kind hearted who guided me survive my previous sad pregnancy. If she didn’t inform me about NM Compass, I’m not sure how mentally and emotionally prepared I would have been. She will always have my gratitude

I've seen her for years and never been more happy with a Healthcare provider and team.

I love Ruth, she is amazing !

She was helpful and made me feel comfortable

She’s thoughtful and clearly invested in delivering good medical care

She was very nice and made the exam quick and easy!

First of all I didn't like how I had to do two do exams for a pap smear when the student exam me then her. I stated to her was very uncomfortable! After my exam I leave to going home and I get a phone call to return back to the clinic for and ultrasound the same day! My health issues having a toxic pregnancy still haven't been resolved!

Address issues with care and kindness

I have been with Ruth for over 29 years she has always been honest, professional and answer all my questions or concerns

Knowledgable and caring

Dr. Ruth Michon is so sweet! This was my first visit to Northwestern and was referred by someone to go to her. She cares, and asks the right questions. Makes you feel comfortable.

Pros: Friendly, professionalCons: No evidence approach to healthcare, did not listen to health concern that led to induction of first child that is appearing earlier in 2nd pregnancy, appointment lasted a total of 3 minutes with Michon despite the concern.

I felt so rush on the appt with her on April 6. She was constantly talking and it was hard for me to squeeze my questions in. She also laughed when she said I have no power of my pelvic floor when she put her finger in to test. I also did not like therr was student in there. She did the vaginal exam really rush and said she was on a time crunch. I did not like it and will never see her again.

She is so sweet and kind

She’s the BEST!

She is so nice and thorough.

She was very understanding and informed.

Knowledgeable. But a little judgemental. The goal is to have a healthy pregnancy, but certain jobs are a little demanding. And changing habits isn't like a slight switch and sting 'good luck with that' in a sarcastic tone isn't welcomed. Otherwise, she was kind.

She listens, she's kind, her advice is always straight forward and helpful
