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.

Did not provide any medical advice for me. Seemed to dismiss my symptoms.

Excellent Primary Care Doctor
I have been seeing Dr. Ripley for about 2 years now. He is very attentive, caring and thorough. Very fortunate to have selected him for my primary care when my old doctor retired.

Doctor Ripley is a great doctor who cares about his patients. I have adult ADHD and he is the only doctor who listens to how the medications, which can be quite harsh, affect me and works with me on them and their dosage. I would absolutely recommend Dr.Ripley for primary care.

Dr Ripley listens to you and has a wealth of knowledge in the medical field. He is very friendly and communicates well, he takes time with his patients at least with me and I'm sure all others he sees. He is easy to talk to and I feel comfortable with him. He has help me with the issues i've had. I would recommend him highly.

Dr Ripley is very knowledgeable, kind, compassionate & is one of the few doctors in the state of Iowa who knows about Ehler-Danlos Syndrome. He works with us to find out a way our medical needs and our personal beliefs can both be met while providing e excellent care. He is also very good at breaking down medical information to explain to those who don't have advanced medical knowledge on their level. He is a good man as well as a good doctor. Takes his time with his patients to ensure he meets their needs & they are comfortable in their understanding of their medical needs.

Appears friendly but I felt uncomfortable and not truly listened to or cared about, and got little out of the appointments. Overall disappointing, and after one year I finally couldn't stand it anymore and found a new doctor.
