Patient Reviews
Aug 30, 2019
Dr. Ricker is one of those doctors with an exceptional soft spoken manner. She explains everything, doesn't recommend thing that are not necessary and does not talk down to you. If she has been your doctor for a while, she always remembers you and has a good way with people. I would never hesitate to recommend anyone to her. I hope she never retires!

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