We are so sad to hear of Dr. Rucoba's passing. He was our first pediatrician and was so kind and compassionate with us as new parents. When we added twins to our family, I don't know what we would've done without his calm and sage advice. He and his loved ones will be in our prayers.

Ruben was a super nice Doctor. Always on target as a pediatrician helping us with our twins. He was engaging and fun to be around. Lots of laughter and good conversation about Baseball which he was a big fan of the sport. He will be greatly missed...

I am so very sorry to hear this. I knew Ruben as a fellow member of band back in Jr. High, later he served as our twins' pediatrician -- Kind, thoughtful, always with a twinkle in his eye. Prayers and love to his family. Ruben was truly one of a kind.

I worked with Dr Rucoba as a Mother/Baby nurse for many years. Dr Rucoba was kind, compassionate and empathetic to every one he met. He always took the time to smile and say hello. It is a terrible loss to medicine with his passing. My deepest condolences to his family. RIP Dr Rucoba
