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.

Does not spend a lot of time with patient. He never gets back to patient with any kind of test results. Seems like he is always in a hurry. When he has a teaching student he just hears what they have to say then asks you if you have questions then leaves. If you don’t want to see his student then he is rude to you and annoyed he has to see you. I will say this you are in and out fast.

Dr. Rittman is a terrible physician. He does not respond to calls, he does not address abnormal labs. My mom has had to dictate her own care because this doctor does not. If you care about yourself or your family members, do not let them see this doctor.

Dr. Rittmann has been my doctor for a number of years now. Before him, I had a doctor that I was not comfortable with. Dr, Rittmann is easy to speak with, has a broad medical knowledge, and truly cares about his patients.

I have had Dr Rittmann as my primary doctor for 3 years now. I spent 17 days in the hospital and he followed my case closely. Showed compassion and truly cares about my health. Currently he is directing my care and insuring that I get the best help possible. I highly recommend him.

He and his staff are not friendly or care at all. I use his office over 3 years. Finally I decide to change it. I ask for referral on Feb 14 2019. It took 3 weeks still not done right. I drove to his office to require a print out referral, and brought to my foot doctor office. It was wrong again. Can’t believe that I spend 3 weeks, many calls, still was wrong. I ask the clerk to call my special doctor office to confirm this referral. DR rittman office clerks refuse to call.

I can't share enough positive remarks about Dr. Rittmann. I truly love this man; as a physician - he has been my doctor for 17 yrs, even when I wasn't a very likable patient. He took care of my mom when she had terminal cancer and is my father's primary after I referred them to him. One of the best diagnosticians I have ever seen - for those who don't like dealing w/med students, get over yourselves. This is how they learn - someone put up with you when you were inexperienced, too.

Dr. Rittmann has terrible interpersonal skills. He allows the students to do the full examination. He never sits in or doublechecks their diagnosis. I could have A cold and they could diagnose me with cancer for all I know. Never going to see him again. He also never looks up from his tablet that he carries anyway. Not sure if he is a physician or an IT guy. Found a better physician
