That made a big difference right away! I am very skittery abouShow moret my feet and I don’t like anybody touching them, which is a problem when you go to a podiatrist…But the staff was great-outstanding!!- the wonderful medical student studying with Dr. Ruggeri was phenomenal, and Dr. Ruggeri was just fantastic. I cannot say enough good things about Road Island Foot Care. I even made another appointment to go back. If you told me that was going to happen before I went to this appointment, I would never have believed you, but it happened and I am very very VERY grateful. If you need help with your feet make an appointment here now! Thank you very much. I appreciate you sincerely and more than you could ever know.

He currently sees patients at the locations in East Providence and Johnston, Rhode Island.
Through his experience, Dr. Ruggiero has developed an expertise in diabetic foot care, limb loss management, generalized and specialized foot surgery, and systemic diseases affecting the foot. Committed to staying ahead of the foot care industry and keeping patients connected to and educated on their health and wellness, Dr. Ruggiero has developed his expertise in many ways. He previously served as a clinician for the wound center at Our Lady of Fatima Hospital. He also acts as a resource to the community and served as past President of the Rhode Island Podiatric Medical Association and co-chairman of the Podiatry Institute Seminar of Newport, Rhode Island.
In addition to his primary private practice in East Providence, Dr. Ruggiero continues site visits in Johnston and North Providence, as well as surgical practice at Miriam Hospital and The Southern New England Surgery Center in Attleboro, Massachusetts.

His residency was completed at Memorial Hospital of Rhode Island, followed by a board certification by the American Board of Podiatric Surgery and becoming a Fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons.

Outstanding
Had not seen Dr. Ruggiero for a few months, but I came in with a new problem and he addressed it immediately and with great results. I will be taking advantage of his services in the future. Besides being a good doctor, he is also a great guy.
They are on time, courteous and make you feel comfortable. The doctor was very subtle with me and answered all my questions.
Excellent care, Been seeing David for a couple of years, only doctor who was able to help me with my problems. Highly recommended!
He makes you feel so comfortable being uncomfortable
Excellent visit as always.
Dave is an excellent Doctor who has a great reputation and has a way of putting his patients at ease, even when it is a difficult situation. I have known Dave since 2010 and have sent many friends and relatives to see him and I will continue to do so.

Dr. Ruggiero is superb with a wonderful patient rapport. His clinical staff is amicable and expert in their treatment of patients. Receptionist a little surly and curt, not bad though.
