He was amazing. So kind and took time to explain things. He gave me time to think about what he was saying and to ask any questions or concerns I had. He showed that he really cared for me as a person, not just another patient.

Post operatively he answered my concerns and gave me positive feedback for my 2-week recovery. I didn't feel rushed this time as I did pre-operatively.

Riley took the time to listen to the initial injury of my knee months ago and then the ongoing issues I've had. He talked me through the X-rays and things he saw as concerns and then talked about treatment options and at-home exercises I can do to help correct this slight arthritis I am developing because I'm loosing my quads (I don't bike anymore). I really appreciate the time Riley took to thoroughly explain options and long term outlooks for my knees. I've been to a lot of appointments with my husband in SLC for his knee and ankle and every time the Dr. is looking at their watch when we ask follow up questions. We came on a Friday and I knew I was Riley's last appointment so I was standing between him and a weekend and I never felt rushed out the door. It was a great experience and he is a caring and thorough practitioner! You are lucky to have found him!
