Justin Ries Md's Online Review Report Card

As a patient of Dr Ries for several years I thought it was best to see him for some unusual symptoms I was experiencing. He order a slew of expensive tests and gave me referrals to unnecessary specialty providers. Frustrated with no relief I called the office looking for answers from Dr Ries. What I got in return was a letter of dismissal and refusal from the staff to let me change to another provider in the office with an appointment within 7 months but truthfully what I was being told is “we don’t want to schedule you”. I will note I did find help for my problem with simple chiropractic care. Not the thousands of dollars spent with Dr Ries long list of unnecessary referrals and tests. I wouldn’t count on dependable quality care with this provider. He will actually go out of his to block you from getting medical care that every person should have access to.

Dr. Ries is a compassionate and caring doctor. I am grateful to have him as my primary care physician. His nurse Robin is also top notch. He takes time with his patients and carefully and thoughtfully makes his diagnoses.

Ries has been my primary for 2 years. He often gets too focused on the current theme of what insurance companies are emphasizing such as weight management or health practices. He lacks deep thought into issues and can be too quick to just give you a referral. This office at Community is also extremely slow to move.

Dr. Ries has been my doctor for 11 years and he has always been kind, thorough and willing to take time to listen to my concerns and address them. He is a fantastic doctor and I will be with him as his patient until the end because I know I will get excellent care and compassion from him.

Had he called it an antidepressant as it is, my spouse would have never entertained the idea. Dr. Ries referred to it as a medicine that helps with anxiety. Good read, I thank him for that. His bedside manner was made comfortable for my spouse by tasteful humor.
