Patient Reviews
Mar 25, 2025
Dr Rettinger is my favorite doctor for a fairly complex problem I am living with. I feel like we manage my health together versus just having a doctor drone on about their own thoughts. She listens and has empathy. I am never rushed. One of the finest doctors I have dealt with.
