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.

Thorough and caring
Very attentive to my mother in law and her chronic arthritis pain

It was a terrible visit the dr completely belittled me because of medications I was on I have herniated disc in back he said I was to old to help I’m 42 this is by far the worst dr I have ever visited people like that should have their license revoked. I simply asked him about a neck problem I was having due to a brain surgery and he yelled at me telling me I’m here for my back that is it horrible experience rude and very unprofessional.

Great. He looked at my previous xrays and took new ones. I was not rushed. It was a good visit and I recommend him.

He was arrogant, dismissed my pain and totally misdiagnosed my condition. He gave me pain medication and told me to call him in a month ! I eventually found out---after seeing another orthopedist---that my left hip is totally destroyed and I need total hip replacement surgery. Dr. Reicher's misdiagnosis caused me to waste six weeks and remain in pain.

I needed a doctor to visit from time to time to make sure that my condition was not getting worse and that I follow a proper regimen to stay active. This doctor was so rude that I regret going there. Spent 5 minutes with me. I brought in my old doctors' notes. Kept discrediting every single doctor I've seen, did not even read the notes nor the results. Said people live with chronic pain every day, I am young and to deal with it. Well, Dr. I wish you never have to deal with chronic pain yourself

I was going to an Orthopedic dr that I really liked but I changed doctors because I wanted to go to a doctor affiliated with AMG. While in the exam room he asked me some questions and reviewed my MRI that was done 1 1/2 years prior. He never examined my shoulder and diagnosed me with "frozen shoulder". A few months later I went to another dr in AMG who said I don't have "fs" he actually examined my arm and shoulder! He gave me another script for MRI since the last one was done a while ago.

I went to Dr. Reicher and I didn't feel that he adressed my back pain with a resolution. He acted like there's nothing to do about it and sent me away. I also thought it was strange that he X-ray my back laying down instead of standing up for a clear picture of what's going on with my back. But besides that, I feel he doesn't give quality care at all. I wouldn't recommend him.

Basically Dr Reicher said i would never get any better and theres nothing he could do. He gave me medication that helped 100 percent then decided that he didnt want to prescribe it to me anymore. So now im back in pain trying to support my family and he pushes me off on another doctor. Not happy.
