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 Rieniets was thorough and was not in a hurry to prescribes meds. So many physicians had said “ let’s try this pill and see if it helps “, I was close to giving up. She talked to me and decided what my ailment was and assured me I could be fine with diet control and she was right!

Unfortunately, I am having to leave Dr. Rieniets as a patient. Dr. Rieniets helped me get my diabetes back on track and lower my A1C. I went from a 9 to 7 and I feel better about myself because of her. I will miss her, Thank you Dr. Rieniets.

Dr. Reiniets knew what I had my first visit. This was after me being dismissed by many Drs. Over 4 years time. She deserves a higher rating. Punishing her for an office person's actions is unreasonable. On a positive note, Dr. Reiniets excels in her prifession.

Her staff wants to place several prescriptions for you and doesn't care if you have to pay for it or not! The staff doesn't seem to know what the other is doing!

I have been very pleased with Dr. Rieniets treatment of my condition. Dr. Rieniets has been very easy to talk to and listens well while explaining my options in a logical and practical way. I found out more about my condition on my first visit with her than I did in 2 years with a previous doctor. I would not hesitate recommending her to anyone needing the services of her specialty. Dr Rieniets bedside manner is rare in my experience and makes for a pleasant change to the norm these days.

This doctor was fabulous. She was easy to talk to and made me feel so comfortable. She is helping me to explore the possibility of a rare disease I may have, when no other doctor would. Highly reccomend.
