Ruby W Tam, DO

Dr. Tam is a board-certified family-medicine doctor, and a certified Perrin Technique Practitioner.  She graduated from Des Moines University Osteopathic School of Medicine in 2009, and completed a family-medicine residency at University of Minnesota, Park Nicollet Methodist Hospital in 2012.  

From 2012 to 2022, Dr. Tam practiced full-spectrum family medicine at Northwest Family Clinics.  She came across the first chronic fatigue patient in 2015.  Since then, Dr. Tam has been reading and learning about the disease.  Dr. Lucinda Bateman has graciously provided support and answered questions that arose over the years.  Dr. Tam retired from her salary position in 2023, and started MECFS Clinic MN to volunteer her time to treat people with ME/CFS.  Beginning in May 2023, she has the honor to serve on the Scientific and Medical Advisory Board of #MEAction to help promote advocacy and clinician education of ME/CFS and Long COVID.

"Patients suffering from Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome have been dismissed, under-represented, mistreated and ignored by the current medical system.  They deserve equal access to good and affordable medical care like anyone else."

She looks forward to playing a role in Dr. Ruby's amazing humanitarian efforts.

"When I learned of Dr. Ruby's clinic for those suffering from chronic fatigue, I knew I wanted to help in her pursuits, even if simply a communications position.  More potential patients, donors and others in supportive roles need to hear Dr. Ruby's message: That everyone is entitled to treatment so that they can get their lives back.  The hand-on approach to chronic fatigue that Dr. Ruby practices at her clinic is a fascinating and time-honored alternative to expensive drugs and treatments that the patients cannot cannot tolerate."
