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.

Fantastic surgeon and person
I’ve had the distinct pleasure of working with Dr Riley in the professional setting. Witnessing his great attitude, attention to detail, and good outcomes made it easy to entrust him with operating on my wife when she needed ulnar surgery. Preop visit, day of surgery, and post surgical care was with the caliber you would expect from a top tier surgeon. We’re glad we placed our trust in Dr Riley and would absolutely recommend him to family and friends for their orthopedic surgical needs!

I have total confidence in Dr. Riley!
Dr. Riley performed a Total Knee Replacement on me in Sept of 2018, and a Total Reverse Shoulder Replacement in Jan of 2023. I initially came to his office in 2016, seeking relief from severe Osteoarthritis in my Right Knee. Dr. Riley made it a point to explore non-surgical options, and only suggested surgery once those options were exhausted. After the knee surgery, my progress was thoroughly monitored, and I ultimately ended up pain-free, with a full range of motion!My shoulder was a more complicated situation, where the arthritis had destroyed the rotator cuff and severely eroded the joint, necessitating the 'Reverse' procedure, which would restore strength and slightly limit behind the back movement. Dr. Riley walked me through the procedure, answering all my questions along the way, and the end result was a successful surgery. My recovery ended up being faster than I'd foreseen, with much better range of motion than anticipated!
