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. Ryan literally saved my father’s life. My dad at 88 was diagnosed with a type A aortic dissection. This was an unfortunate rare complication of a valve replacement surgery done at an outside hospital several days earlier. 100% mortality rate if untreated. As a physician myself (and with two physician siblings as well) we knew that chance of successful surgery was not the greatest given his age and condition. A more senior physician had declined to take the case due to the Low chance of success. Dr.Ryan agreed to take my dad to the OR. The eight hours in the OR were the longest of my life and I was certain I would never see my dad alive again. Dr. Ryan came to speak to us after the surgery as though it was no big deal and it was just another day of being a life saving hero for him. Although my dad is still in the hospital with a long road ahead if him, I will never be able to thank Dr. Ryan enough for what he has given me and our family.

Dr Ryan was the Surgen who got stuck doing my second valve replacement in four years. The surgery Dr. Ryan did was very difficult and lasted hours longer than expected, there were complications afterwards due to the severity of my condition when I went in. However, thru it all Dr Ryan and his team work effortlessly and tirelessly to make sure I recovered physically, spiritually, and emotionally from this ordeal. He was always very polite caring and knowledgable. I would highly recommend him
