Patient Reviews
May 02, 2021
Dr Rikkers was prepared for my visit. He had read my health history and reviewed test results before coming in. He was very friendly and answered all my questions. Before surgery he came to my room and again if I had questions or concerns. He seemed genuinely concerned about my health.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
