Dr. Rider is a excellent surgeon! He takes time with his patients and explains everything to the finest detail. Hopefully I will never need him again once I am totally healed. If I ever needed a dr. with his specialty again he is my 1st choice!

Dr. Rider did such an amazing surgery on my ankle. I had gotten to the point that I could barely walk. Dr. Rider did a full ankle replacement 6 months ago on my ankle. The experience has been life changing. I am back exercising 3 days a week. Dr. Rider is the best surgeon and is wonderful with spending time pre-op and post-op. I highly recommend him.
