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.

Dr Riddell is always very professional and courteous. He is very easy to talk to and is a good listener. I have been seeing Dr Riddell now for 16 years.

I've been a patient of Dr. Riddell's for years, and as always, I feel like I am getting the highest level of care during my visits. He is extremely knowledgeable, very thorough, perceptive, and relates well to his patients. Visits are never rushed - he takes time to listen to any health concerns and he answers any questions I might have. Dr. Riddell does a good job of offering proactive suggestions for improving my overall health without being pushy or judgmental. Great balance of professionalism & kindness!

Been with him for about 15 years. I’d probably be dead if it wasn’t for him. Over the years he’s discovered and treated several illnesses and diseases. He’s always prepared and knows why your there to see him. Very good listener. I cannot imagine ever leaving him, he better outlive me.

Dr. Riddell is personable, listens, explains and goes the extra mile for his patients. You may have to wait, but it's because he does listen and explains everything to his patients...a good dr may be on time, but a great dr may be a little late...should you have to wait, he is worth it your patience. My husband has several health problems, so I am speaking for him...he thinks Dr. Riddell is one of the VERY BEST.
