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 knowledgeable & very straight forward
He explained Avascular Necrosis very detailed. He spent plenty of time until all questions were answered

DO NOT GET SURGERY HERE
Dr. Rice promised my mom rainbows as her second opinion for knee replacement. Once he performed the surgery, he showed his staff & our family just how unimportant his patients are to him. The morning after her surgery, she was promised pain management by her hospital room nurse at 8am. They told her they were unable to give her anything orally, since they had blown her veins via IV until they spoke to Rice. (including Ibuprofen) & that he was not returning their calls. He finally called them at 4pm. She went 8 hours feeling the horrific pain after a major surgery. She had gone to 2 different ER's because of complications, & none of them could give her antibiotics for her cellulitis and developing infection cause they couldn't get ahold of Rice. When they did, he showed up 4 hours after the time he set with the hospital staff. Her entire leg is black & blue, infected & 3 times the normal size. We're still hoping for a decent recovery.
