Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Riff performed knee surgery for me on my torn meniscus. You wouldn't believe how much pain, and how much medication I was taking for my left knee BEFORE surgery. The results from the surgery were just amazing for me! 10 weeks later, I am pain free and off all the pain killers. I can't thank Dr. Riff and the Physical Therapy Team enough. It is such a great feeling to be back to normal.

Dr. Riff and his staff are amazing. I came here on a recommendation from a friend after 6 years of Hip pain and 2 failed arthroscopic surgeries. He reassured me that there was something that he could do and was confident that it would work. He couldn’t have been more accurate, 5 months post-op and I feel mostly like my old self and can do things with ease that were a hinderance before. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Riff to anyone I meet and I can’t thank him enough for how much he’s changed my life.

Had rotator cuff surgery performed by Dr Riff and the results were outstanding. The attention and care I received was excellent, including a follow up call the night of the surgery. Subsequent visits were handled in a friendly and professional manner. I’m thrilled with the results and highly recommend Hinsdale Ortho and especially Dr Riff

I visited Dr Riff back in December after a car accident. He immediately jumped into action to help me relieve my pain. I had been to two other doctors and they turned me a way because it was an MVA. Dr Riff could tell how much pain I was in. Upon further testing it was noted that I had a labrum tear that would require surgery. Surgery was scheduled for the 27th of December. Surgery went perfectly and today I am fully recovered with full range of motion. His after care was top notch as well! He is a Doctor that truly cares about his patients!!

Dr. Riff is by far the best experience I have had regarding surgeons throughout my life which have included numerous surgeries. I tore my meniscus in my left knee and because I had planned a trip to visit my daughter in Ireland within a month, it was imperative that I recover as quickly as possible. I explained my dilemma Dr Riff and he immediately put the surgery on the fast track and within a week he had scheduled surgery. Immediately I felt as if the injury never happened. By the time I got to Ireland, three weeks later, I experienced no limitations while hiking the countryside for several days. The reason I know he did a fantastic job is because I tore the meniscus in my right knee four years ago and the tear was not as severe. The recovery lasted for six weeks and the limitations/range of motion took eight weeks of therapy. I can't say enough positive things about Dr. Riff and his Physician Assistant/Extender/Athletic Trainer/Orthopedic Technologist Sarah!
