Dr. Risinger – Testimonials
I don't know how to use any of those sites, and if there was a different way to respond, I certainly would because he is one of my favorite doctors!
Everyone was very nice
Dr. Risinger was very helpful and took a lot of time to explain the surgical procedure, and what to expect. Thanks to the office personnel also for their professionalism and efficiency in prepping all of the necessary paperwork .
I was very appreciative of the time that was given for explanations of what to expect after surgery.
Great experience. Knowledgeable. Personable. Very short wait
Nursing staff was great doctor was very personable and knowledgeable made me feel right at home
I had a good experience with Dr. Risinger and my aching knees I received immediate relief and we are developing a long term plan, after an MRI. I recommend Dr. Risinger.
Dr. Risinger put me at ease, answered my questions, and was very gentle with the cortisone shot! I definitely recommend him.
What impressed me most about Dr. Risinger was the amount of time he gave me. I’ve seen other orthopedic doctors and I always feel rushed. Not only did he provide a full diagnosis of my shoulder he also took additional time to access my arthritic knee.
