Patient Reviews
Apr 24, 2019
Dr. Rishwain has done two colonoscopies and one exploratory surgery on me. He has also used his knowledge and experience to help me through some painful bowel infections. I am SO grateful for him. He listens carefully and works hard to discover what is truly going on. Not the kind of doctor that’s just throws meds at symptoms. I had a sponge left in me from a surgery. My other docs, who genuinely tried to figure out what was wrong, simply gave up. Doctor Rishwain stayed in the search until we found the sponge. And it had to come out. I’ve also seen him on a few of his “not so good” days. Well, docs have sucky days, too. And that never got in the way of him caring and practicing medicine. I appreciate his thoroughness, his attention to detail and how straightforward he his. I recommend him whole heartedly. I really do.
