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.

We were patients of Dr. Ricci for years. He was wonderful, caring and almost always available as needed. He listens and clearly cares about his patients. When my parents came to live with us, he willing took them on as patients. We have moved to the SW now, but we hold Dr. Ricci in high esteem!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Ricci’s for years and will be for as long as he is practicing. He’s always thorough and easy to understand and a pleasure to talk to. I never feel like he’s rushing and alwaysleave feeling like I understand everything we’ve discussed.

My husband went In there since he fell on his leg Saturday night, and the nurse practitioner Megan really didn't show him any compassion. She ordered his x-rays and then came in and said there's nothing wrong Matthew. Then he went back home in pain, called today Thursday and he was told he had fractured his femur, then he is told he will get a call today for orthopedic dr. And then just to be told oh it won't be until Monday to get a call, how do they expect to do business if they continuously
