Dr. Barry Riskin, MD

Terrible to my mother. Rude! I do not recommend!!

I have been having seizures for about 10 yrs before meeting dr.riskin. In and out of hospitals and being misdiagnosed. Went to Dr.Riskin for 2 visits and got fully correctly diagnosed. He has helped me the most out of all the doctors I have been to. Very responsive and friendly. My whole family is happy I found this doctor. He was able to explain to them what's wrong where other doctors failed at. I actually moved back to Illinois so I could go to this doctor. Was a 2 hour drive, then he moves to the city I live. Quite amazing

I brought my dad to see Dr Riskin when he started having seizures. Dr Riskin was very knowledgeable and acted quickly prescribing medication and. His seizures stopped. Testing is still being done but trust me your in good hands with this doctor and staff. We were able to get in next day and had zero problems with him or his staff. Absolutely a wonderful place to go if you need his type of service.

His incompetence and unwillingness to help is unacceptable. My wife ended up in the ER because he wouldn't do his job and just blamed other doctor offices. Unprofessional and dismissive of his patients.

Dr. Riskin is comforting, knowledgeable, and professional. Five stars????

Today was my first experience with Dr Riskin. He preformed an EMG test to determine the causes of numbness and tingling in both my legs. Dr Riskin was outstanding in every way. He was professional, articulate, and caring throughout the testing process. I could not be more pleased Dr Riskin. I highly recommend him.

Wow! What a smart doctor. Terrific bedside manner. Awesomely caring and genuine. He was honest and forthcoming with my condition. I learned so much from him that other doctors never even spoke of. He really cared about me!

I saw Dr. Riskin for an issue i was having. I found Dr. Barry to be kind, compassionate and full of knowledge. He was very comforting and caring. A wise and smart doctor

Run away fast. An an MS doctor, he wasn’t even up to date on MS drugs. I went to the Carle group in town and LOVE MY CARE.

I came to see Dr Barry Ruskin in September 2019 and in November 2019. I read his reviews and they said negative things . I found him to be on time , very Professional, very knowledgeable, sympathetic, kind. He has my total confidence. I have MS and it’s a complicated disease. He trained with Floyd Davis who first diagnosed me in 1089. He is a lot like him he has his manner. I was very pleased with him , and he is a great Doctor.

Dr. Riskin is a very thorough and conscientious Physician. His professionalism and ability to show empathy in order to relate to his patients is one of the best that I have ever experienced professionally or personally. He took the necessary time that I needed to ensure that we were in agreement with a plan of care. I highly recommend Dr. Riskin!

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. I made an appt 2 months prior to my visit and rearranged my work schedule to be there. 10 minutes before my appt, while I was nearly there, I was called on my cell and my appt was canceled. Seriously? If this is how you treat your patients after waiting 2 months to be seen I am going elsewhere. I read that he is arrogant. Apparently so!

Dr Riskin, not only seriously injured my husband during his incorrectly performed EMG. His lack of concern and lack of help getting us to the right doctors a year ago, left us fighting on our own to get him care. He was cold rude and bizarre when we saw him after a spinal tap. A year later, my husband has become disabled with a serious neurological disorder called Complex Regional pain syndrome. His lack of care and medical neglect, led this to spreading throughout my husbands entire body.

He is awful with appointment times if you’re 2 minutes late he will say he’s too busy to see you and is only available practically once a month 12/10 don’t recommend seeing him

Dr.Riskin was very thorough, personable, kind and conscientious doctor. His professionalism and "bedside manner" are refreshing in the world of health-care. I felt like I was in very good hands. The speed of receiving results from tests was exceptional. One of the worst parts of medical care is the waiting. I was able to get results within days rather than the normal weeks.

I have never been so depressed after leaving a doctors office as I was with him. He told me there was no hope for me so I some just take some meds and hope they work for me.

All about himself, big ego and doesn't really care about his patients.
