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.

Expert, educator, funny
I was very pleased my first appointment with Dr. Riggi. I was not interested in getting an X-ray right away and he talked me thoroughly through when/how/why for x-rays, he explained my situation thoroughly (love using the paper image on the wall - I'm a visual learner!), and he listened to me. He also used great analogies and was funny. Medicine and health as you get older can be depressing. I was encouraged by my first visit. Thank you Dr. Riggi.

Only high accolades for Dr. Riggi. Strategic care, with exceptional explanation of treatment options. No rush to surgery... weights out & rules out options, explains potential concerns, accounts for the individual lifestyle, addressing treatment protocol for the individual, best long term functionality in mind.

Absolutely the best doctor. Had a total knee replacement and from the first visit through surgery I could not be happier. Dr Riggi and his entire staff along with all the people at the hospital should be very proud of the work they do, I’m so thankful..
