I have used Dr. Rickoff many times and have always found him to be professional and easy to talk to about my health situations. I have confidence that he has the knowledge to safely and expertly help me. This gives me much peace to know that I can depend on him for my procedures.

Have been a patient of Dr. Rickoff's for years. He has the best bed-side manner of any doctor I have ever seen. Hate having to see a gastroenterologist, but love seeing Dr. Rickoff!!

He saved my life. I had a c scan done at another place six months prior and why so soon he didn't answer. When I got the order scan he called me after hours himself to tell me to go to the hospital. He and I talked four more times before I went and when I was wheeled out of surgery part of colon was gone as I had a malignant tumor. Thank you Dr. Rickoff.
