#DidYouKnow MercyOne Des Moines Ruan Neurology Care clinic was funded through philanthropy? After losing two family members to Multiple Sclerosis (MS), the Ruan family worked with MercyOne Des Moines Medical Center to establish a neurological rehabilitation facility to benefit patients battling neurological diseases and injuries. In 2001, the Ruan Charitable Foundation donated $2 million to establish the MercyOne Des Moines Ruan Neurology Care clinic, which serves more than 25,000 patients annually. You can support current patients by making a gift. Visit https://www.mercyone.org/desmoinesfoundation/give/give-now/. Designate "Neurosciences" in the drop down. #SupportMercyOneDSM
