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.

I’m very grateful to Dr Ryan for the care and compassion he has shown me in the 4+ years I’ve been a patient. He is the first doctor who has truly listened to me. I’ve been suffering for more than 10 years and I’m not going to get any better. He does everything in his power to give me the best care and the most comfort available. He’s a wonderful doctor and I recommend him quite often.

I would not suggest making an appointment with this office! I just called the main line to make an appointment as I moved recently and wanted to make an appointment with a Doctor that is a little closer to me. The receptionist was very rude, and said "We don't take transfer patients" I explained to her that I wanted to change to get a doctor closer to me that is more on my way home and she said it is our right to refuse patients. I sent myself to a pain management doctor, this office very rude!

Put extremely inappropriate comments about one of my past physicians in my medical record! Right there in black and white typed under my medical history about how that past physician used illicit drugs and had his medical license revoked! How in the world does that type of information end up in MY record? How in the world is that relevant to MY medical history?!? So inappropriate! I found so many errors and outright lies in his documentation of my visit!
