Awesome Doc
Always very attentive to the patient and explains in a way patient can understand.
Always Gives Excellent Care!!
He’s been absolutely wonderful since I started getting my eye shots. Explained everything and the whole process has been so easy. I can actually see better after each shot.
Very knowledgeable and provided all the information I needed in a professional manner. Highly recommend.
I have been seeing Dr. Ryder for the last 4 years and he is the best in what he does being Very thorough and humble and i recommend seeing him if you a need for an eye doctor
Dr Ryder makes a scary procedure easy and painless. He is the one you need to go to see.
Great physician! Knowledgeable, professional and personable all in one!
I wish I could give him a 10🤔 I’ve been treated by Dr Ryder for six years for macular degeneration. I’m so thankful for his decisions and care as my vision is almost perfect. He is patient and kind and I couldn’t ask for a better doctor. I think anyone who visits this office will be confident they are getting the best care there is with Dr Ryder
