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.

Highly Recomended
I'm 73 years old and I go to Dr. Rioch for an adjustment every month. I have Osteoporosis in my spine (injecting Forteo every day), and a permanent deformity in my L1. Dr. Rioch always takes the time to answer questions and show me stretching exercises that help with the pain related to the L1 deformity. He's the best physician I've had in my many years living in Findlay.

Great doctor. Straight shooter, treats the causes and not just the symptoms, good "bed side manner", nice professional staff and of course clean offices. The entire family switch to him in a matter of months.

He is awesome. Just the ticket. Sits and listens, asks questions, explains everything in a calm and caring way, answers questions fully and makes sure you understand. Uses good anologies to help make a point or help you understand. Wonderful positive upbeat and professional character and his medical, spiritual and personal philosophies match mine exactly. Office team every bit as nice and helpful as Dr Rioch is. I waited less than 5 minutes for my appointment and he came in right on the money at the scheduled time. Wears lab clothes instead of golf outfits like my last one so I do not feel like I am cutting into his T off time, but conversing with a health professional.

I highly recommend Dr. Rioch. He is friendly, approachable, listens to your concerns, and provides education that is understandable. We are very mindful of the care our infant receives. Knowing Dr. Rioch has a large family and seeing the care he has shown our infant has put us at ease. The other staff are welcoming as well and greet us with a smile. His appointments times work well with our schedule. Appointments are always on time, which is appreciated with managing an infant as two full-time working parents.

I am 29 years old and this has been my primary care physician my entire adult life. I rarely go to the Dr unless something is seriously wrong, probably three times in the last ten years. I started experiencing extreme lower back pain a few weeks ago. The MRI showed I have a bilateral L5 spondylosis (fracture of vertebrae. I told him again how much pain I was in hoping to get relief. They told me to go to the emergency room if it’s that bad. This has been a horrible experience. Looking 4 new Dr.

I had an appointment for a wellness examination. Dr. Rioch spent the whole time playing with his computer and did not get off his chair during this time. My questions/concerns were sidestepped. I was given a referral, but it was not in my network and I would have needed $1,000 upfront. I had to tell his office what referral was in my network. I am now looking for another doctor. AVOID THIS DOCTOR!!!

Our family has been going to see Dr Rioch since the first day he began caring for patients here in Findlay Ohio around 19 years ago or so. We all think the world of him and do recommend him to others.
