Review for Dr. Rittmann
Staff for her are so so so rude. I once had a lady hang up on me purposely. If Veldman wants any good to come from her she needs to FIRE her ridiculous receptionists immediately. Doc herself is also super slow to get back to you and quite rude in my opinion. Does not take anything you say...
