Dr. Valerie Ratts, MD

There are not enough words in the English language to express the greatness of Dr. Ratts. From the moment my husband and I encountered her, we knew she would be the physician we trusted. She took her time when explaining process and procedures, and she never cut corners; she answered any and every question no matter how insignificant it may have seemed. Dr. Ratts took time to examine us and our history of 2 unexplained losses. She was empathetic, and confident, but never over sold a dream. She was calculated, and never pushed any procedure on us or made us feel pressured. We always felt as if our investment, was her investment. I would recommend Dr. Ratts 100 times out of 100 if you are looking for a thorough, educated, empathetic, competent physician with great bedside manner who wants your success just as much as you do!

She spent over an hour talking through everything and making me feel incredibly comfortable. Her staff is amazing and so helpful. Not a fan of students, however it is a teaching hospital. Any time I've called about questions or insurance verification, they have been nothing but outstanding. I would recommend their office to anyone.

Dr. Ratts was amazing. She went above and beyond to help my husband and I to find out what had caused our fertility issues. She gave us the help and the hope of growing our family. I now have a 20 year old son who is an answer to our prayers. Thank you Dr. Ratts.

She was knowledgeable in her field, but was not personable and at times even talked down to us. I was very happy with the practice at the office, and would recommend other doctors at WU, but I would not recommend Valerie Ratts to anyone.

Our daughter had a genetic anatomic anomaly and found herself in significant pain. Dr. Ratts correctly diagnosed her problems and performed surgery to relieve her pain and give her the greatest opportunity for conception in her future (she was only 17 at the time). 6 1/2 years later, after only 3 months 'trying', she successfully conceived! We are elated! We are thankful for the correct diagnosis, pain relief, and now for the successful conception!

Dr. Ratts was great, but she did not perform any of the procedures. She set the medical care plan, but other physicians worked the plan. Scheduling is tough. Every attempt to call was answered by voicemail. After leaving a voicemail, you have to wait for someone to call back, which is hard when you can not answer the cell phone while at work.
