Dr. Rimkus is the best! He is very knowledgeable, highly skilled and personable. He has a wonderful bedside manner! He made me feel very comfortable for my gallbladder surgery. Everything went very well and I am very happy with the minimal incisions. If you need a surgeon, look no further! He really is the best!

I felt very comfortable with the care and treatment I received from Dr. Rimkus. He instantly knew what my condition was and how to treat it. He explained the procedure to me and what to expect afterward. I would not hesitate to recommend him or, if necessary, to go to him again.

I got gallbladder surgery done, he never came to check on me after the surgery was done. And from the moment I met him, to when it was all done, he was very detached, and barely spoke to me. Like I’m just another paycheck is how I feel about it. Disappointing, considering this is my first surgery and I’m in a lot of pain because of it.

Dr. Rimkus is a terrific surgeon who genuinely cares about his patients feelings and takes the time to listen to them. His pleasant personality made me feel very comfortable before and after gallbladder surgery. I had very little discomfort and no complications and was able to return to work in just a few days. I would recommend Dr. Rimkus and his staff very highly.

I was referred to Dr. Rimkus by the ER doctor after suffering a gall bladder attack. I saw him on a Thursday, he ordered all my pre-op stuff for Friday, and did the surgery during his lunch hour on Monday My gall bladder was very inflamed, so Dr. Rimkus started me on antibiotics for 4 days before doing surgery. He was very professional and told me everything I needed or wanted to know about the surgery. He saw me a week after the surgery, and then a month later, just to make sure everything had healed properly. I now have my favorite surgeon!
