Incredible Doctor
Dr Rider is outstanding in his field. I rest easy knowing I’ve had one surgery and he is doing my next surgery. A+
Dr Rider has been a great surgeon to work with for my foot surgery. His calm demeanor and easy explanations made surgery and recovery an easier experience.
Dr. Carson was a great surgeon and was able to patch up my trimal fracture. The clinic in general has some work to do on communication. I have had several occasions where communications on scheduling has impacted me, and medical documentation has been hard to get or unclear on how it needs to be requested. I would recommend over-communicated and always asking questions to verify and asking for it in writing where applicable.
Dr. Carson is knowledgeable, polite, explains the process and results well, and provides good care. My interactions with him have been very good and I appreciate his approach in explaining the process thoroughly.
Dr. Rider is fantastic, truly the best foot and ankle surgeon in town.
Explained the surgery extremely well and the recovery time also !
He is honestly the sweetest, most thorough, and BEST surgeon I have ever had!!! I highly recommend him for any Achilles surgery!!! He will be doing my other one as soon as possible!
Doctor Rider care goes above and beyond. Excellent Doctor and professional.
Nice encouraging phone conversation yesterday after having several missed connections with my phone. Shoes have helped so much to get me back to the gym!
