The most caring and informative doctor I have ever had. He takes time to explain things to you and provides accurate and effective treatment to any issue my family has ever had. True definition of a family doctor that you can trust to have your best interest and health in mind.

When asked what he loves about family medicine, he said, “I love doing life together with people. There’s no substitute for walking life’s journey with other people, regardless of whether their concerns are small or great.”
Dr. Ricketts started working at Woodlawn in 2002 and provides family medicine and obstetrical services.
“I appreciate the concern staff exhibit as they provide excellent care within our hospital’s scope of practice. I also love the fact that we are a self-sustaining, independent hospital,” he stated.
