Patient Reviews
Oct 05, 2018
The first time I saw Dr. Rivner he spent several hours with me. In each follow up since then he has spent at least an hour carefully evaluating me. He does not diagnose a person without indisputable data and so for some diseases like ALS, you may see him over a long period before you have a diagnosis. Better to take time than to deliver a wrong diagnosis especially regarding a disease like ALS. He is an expert in his field and I trust the care I receive from him completely.
