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. Rylander and Rebecka his nurse, have provided me with attention and compassion at every visit for decades. They listen and are understanding and respectful. I trust both of these professionals with my total care. They care about my physical, emotional and spiritual health.

Not just a Dr, FAMILY
While preforming my procedure today, remembered things going on in my life and asked about them. Dr Rylander and his team treat me like family and in doing so has become part of my family. I always feel confident and comfortable about the outcome of any health issues that I have presented. Dr Rylander thank you for all you have done for me and my family.

Excellent care...unmatched
I have been a patient of Dr Rylander for several years. In this day and age it is extremely difficult to find this level of superior care. He and his staff have been amazing. I have referred loved ones to him and they now receive excellent care. If you're fortunate enough to have him accepting new patients, do not hesitate. Very thankful!!

He took time to clarify several helpful points of diabetes information. Things that should be reviewed over time that can be forgotten. Reminders and helpful support and encouragement are so positive. Thanks Dr Rylander. You're a treasure.

Upon first meeting Dr. Rylander
I got the pleasure of meeting with Dr Rylander, and I was completely thrilled. He sat a spoke to me directly, he never rushed me; he asked questions and always waited for me to answer, he was never impatient and very kind, as well as very thorough. In this day and age that's extremely difficult to find. I will be recommending Dr. Rylander,just as he was recommended to me and very fortunate that he was.
