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. Ritter is wonderful doctor.

In good hands!
I’ve been to three different Gastro doctors within the past 28 months with no relief from my condition or even a diagnosis. Within minutes, I felt like I was in the right place. Dr. Ritter looked at my procedures & symptoms and was ready to diagnose & prescribe help. He has taken over my health care. I couldn’t be happier.

I can’t imagine a more caring doctor and PA in Texas. They take their time, listen to your concerns, and talk over the options. Dr. Ritter and Brooke are the best team

Dr Ritter is a great Dr.
I’ve been seeing Dr Ritter for about 15 years. He is one of the best GI docs out there. He always listens & truly wants you to be healthy. He’ll take as much time with you as needed. I’m pretty sure he saved my life when my disease started & he got me to where I’m stable and have been for years. He’s the best. You can’t go wrong choosing him as you doctor.

TDDC - Dr. Ritter
Dr. Ritter is a professional and is very knowledgeable with digestive disorders. He is a communicating doctor that thoroughly goes over your bloodwork and medical history. I call those type of doctors Old School doctors, because they are personally & professionally concerned about your health and well-being. No rushing in and out!!! I love TDDC I have been a patient there for over 20 years. I love it that my condition is their specialty.

20+ Years as a Patient
Dr Ritter has taken care of my challenges as a GI Patient for over 20 years. No matter how difficult my health has been he has always been there for me. Crohn's, reflux, fistulas, and even found my Pancreatic Cancer while in the hospital for testing of my Gi system. I have recommended him to multiple friends. Dr Ritter is one of the best doctors I have ever had.

I have finally found a GI doctor that actually cares about me and listens to me. I have gotten more hope from him than I have in the last 4 years. From the minute I met him I knew he was going to help me and get me a quality of life I haven’t had. He listened to everything I had to say and never talked over my head and explained everything he was going to do to help me get my life back! I actually have access to his office and staff from their portal to their office and they respond to me immediately which shows me they care!

He is a great Doctor who is very knowledgeable about my medical condition. He is one who will listens to me. Between the research, his questioning and listening to me we have been able to pick the right course of action for my medical condition. Always will to answer any questions/concerns I have. I have had several GI doctors due to moving around. By far the best doctor of all of them.
