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 takes time to listen to your problems. It’s not in a hurry to see the next patient. He’s very concerned about your health.

I've been going to Dr. Ritter for about three years. He is the first doctor who was able to recognize my rare autoimmune disease and come up with an effective treatment plan to help me navigate what had become an excruciating existence. He often works through lunch to try to accommodate patients who might be flaring up as walk-ins, is always happy to answer questions, and keeps up with literature and treatment options as they develop. He is an amazing rheumatologist and going to see him changed my life!

Great doctor, very personable and thorough. I have been seeing him for over 10 years now. Just one word of warning: the wait times can be TERRIBLE, regardless of the time of day. On several occasions I had to wait over two hours. And the front office staff could use a few lessons in etiquette and manners. They can be somewhat curt, almost to the point of being rude. BUT the doctor is great!

We never saw the doctor---only the PA. She was efficient---we have not received the results in writing yet. However, the office staff was very rude and `condescending to the patients. One elderly lady was told her referral was not in and should call her doc. She did not have a phone and was then told to use a hall phone, The poor lady was very flustered and upset. I went forward and helped her call from my phone. The front desk could care less--they were awful !!!

Paid over $1.500 and I never got my results. Doctor said she would personally call me when results came from my MRI this was in September. At least his office should've called my doctor. Meanwhile I'm in pain everyday. His office is to busy and employees barely speaks English maybe someone will call my doctor Jennifer charity Keywest fl

Excellent and experienced doctor. After years of going from specialist to specialist, he was able to accurately diagnose and treat me. He's patient with me, listens to my complaints and answers all of my questions. Although it is a busy office, I did not feel he was rushed.

Very nice and professional. Friendly. Smiles often. Takes time to listen, even though it's a very busy office . You need to book your appointment at least 3 weeks in advance if you want to be seen by Dr. Ritter instead of the PA, who is also very nice.
