Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I had a surgery procedure done by DR Ridilla and was well please with the way he was.He listened to any questions asked,and explained any messages that he had for me clearly.He is very professional with a good sense of humor,but the main thing here is,his work is very good and i recommend him to anybody.He is a top notch surgeon.. I have to point out something which is not directed towards him,but i called on Saturday the day after surgery to get a question answered,and the call back Doctor(which i could not understand his name)was very rude like you wouldn't believe,he was very ignorant which was uncalled for .There was no need for it, and the reason i asked is i didn't want to forget to call on Monday due to my memory loss which i do forget easily.

I was referred to Dr. Ridilla from my PCP after an ultrasound confirmed a bad gallbladder. His office was able to fit me in for a consultation quickly. My consultation appoint was delightful, Dr. Ridilla and his staff were nothing but helpful and thorough. He took his time with me to listen to my symptoms and then to explain to me options and answer my questions. I ended up having my gallbladder removed and feel fantastic now! I experienced the same service and care at my follow up appointment and cannot say enough about his beside manner, professionalism, and medical knowledge.

He is a very good Doctor and surgeon. I had my first major surgery and Doctor Ridilla was chosen by my family doctor and another one so they picked a very good doctor for me. And I did alright with the surgery then I had to have emergency surgery and if it wasn't for doctor Ridilla I would not be writing this review right now I would not be here. And my husband had Doctor Ridilla for gallbladder surgery and a hernia surgery. And we think he is a very good Doctor and Surgeon. Thanks Dr. Ridilla

I had an emergency surgery with Dr. Ridilla in December. He went above and beyond in his care. I would recommend him to anyone who needs surgery.

If it weren't for Dr. Riddilla my mom would have died. He came onto her case because he was the dr. on call, and we are so grateful he was the one on call. He explained everything that happened to my mom, and what to expect. He operated on her twice with great results. He answered EVERY question we had. He was kind and thoughtful not just to my mom, but to our whole family. I would recommend him to EVERYONE! My mom is still in the hospital but I'm sure his office staff is just as good!
