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.

This was my first appt with Dr Rettig and it went very well. The staff who greeted me was very nice and there was no wait time to see the doctor. I found Dr Rettig very personable and he explained my condition thoroughly and answered my questions as well as provided me with suggestions and options. I would not hesitate to schedule another visit with him.

Dr. Retting performed a bunionectomy of my right foot in 2017, after seeing the results, there was no question I was returning for the same procedure on my left foot. I like that he is very knowledgeable and takes great pride in his work. He made me feel at ease that I made the right decision. Getting an appointment and being seen right away is another staple of this practice. His staff are absolutely gems that go above and beyond. It’s truly been a satisfying experience. Thank you!!
