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.

Very friendly, knowledgeable kind! Easy to talk t
I love to have the X-rays and reports thoroughly explained. He is very approachable, cares about his patients, and will go out if his way to put you at ease.

Gratefully happy
Dr. Ramme takes the time to listen and investigate everything I need him to. He also explains things well, using visuals like models of the particular joint concerned. And he has a warm and caring personality.

I made my 'joint' appointment based on Dr. Ramme's extensive medical training and involvement with a variety of joint issues. Joint pain is new to me - this time I was sure the problem was rotator cuff and I dreaded hearing potential surgical remedy. When I met with Dr. Ramme I was immediately impressed by his calm, patient and unhurried manner. A careful listener with an open and thoughtful expression, he reminded me of a favorite TV personality, Mr. Rogers of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. All he lacked were cardigan and sneakers! Dr. Ramme reviewed my xrays and said he thought a cortisone shot would resolve his diagnosis of inflammation due to arthritis. And he was right. The injection was scheduled for a few days later. Instant relief....no shoulder joint pain within minutes. I live on a farm and need healthy shoulder joints for lifting and wrangling young animals - I am grateful to Dr. Ramme for hopefully making my senior farming years possible for a good long time. :) :)
