She was kind, patient, gentle and explained everything very well. I am glad I took my friends recommendation and came to see her.
I have finally found an amazing surgeon! She’s very kind, understanding, and professional! 💕
Dr. Ricketts is honestly one of the best doctors I have ever encountered! She walked me through every step of my hip replacement. I honestly cannot imagine anyone besides Dr. Ricketts being my orthopedic doctor. She is warm, inviting, knowledgeable and most of all she genuinely cares. Thank you for all you have done for me.
Dr Ricketts was very thorough in her examination and very personable. I felt very confident after my appointment. The two other staff members , Kim & the nurse were very professional and helpful.
Amazing
