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.

He Saved My Life!!!
I had a heart attack and Dr. Riordan did a triple bypass on 3 of my arteries-98%, 99% and 100% blocked. My family was terrified, but he put them at ease and even told my adult daughter that I should have 10 - 12 more years. When I heard that, I was so happy! I am nearly thru cardiac rehab and am feeling very good. My husband has Parkinson's and it is advanced. I am now able to help him again!! Dr. Riordan's attitude and words made a huge difference, and I am very proud of my scars!! I definitely would tell anyone who is looking for a superb doctor, to go to Dr. Riordan!!

Dr was awesome, nurse that prepped for office visit was the nastiest, rudest most inconsiderate person I have ever dealt with! I honestly felt that she believed that anyone with a health condition should just be euthanized.
