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.

Seek alternative doctors!
Dr. Riedel is condescending and seems devoid of empathy. He repeats himself by lecturing. He seems to not realize that some patients are smart and well educated. He offers little support and even gets defensive when questioned about treatment plans. I sought alternative sarcoma experts who are far more empathetic and appreciative of feedback.Medicine is not a pure science and requires thinking outside the box, something sadly Dr. Riedel cannot do for his patients.
