Verified patient
Oct 2023I am more than satisfied with Dr Rivell and her staff. She listens and explains what she does, why, and gives direction for future care. In the past, she did not hesitate to recommend that I see a health care specialist for a problem I was having. She made the necessary contact so that I saw someone within a few days. She followed up with me on the outcome when I recently saw her. She also is a compassionate person and likes getting to know her patients as individual people - what are we doing, are we traveling, where is our family, how long have we been married, etc. I am lucky to have her as my primary care physician.
