In her 26 years as a pediatrician, she has served as a Clinical Attending in the Emergency Department at St Chris, Medical Director at Greater Philadelphia Health Action's Woodland Avenue Health Center, and for the last ten years, she has been a primary care pediatrician at an Advocare office in Southern New Jersey.

Dr. Ruddock is skilled in general pediatric and adolescent medicine, Urgent Care Emergency Medicine, and has an interest in Sports Medicine. A long-time Fairmount community member, she is an avid fitness buff and can often be found on the running trails of Fairmount park.

She looks forward to connecting with the families of Advocare Fairmount Pediatrics, both in the current city office and the second, East Norriton, office soon to open.
