I've seen Dr. Riggs twice now for my ankle. He is very professional and makes sure he answers any and all of your questions. I had a cortisone injection today and he really did a good job with administering. I would recommend him to family and friends without hesitation.

I saw Dr. Riggs for my osteoarthritic right knee. His staff is excellent. I arrived a little early, had some imaging done, waited very briefly to go back, met with his practice administrator - Alex, very kind and thorough. I received a shot in my knee, relatively painless - great shot distraction technique! Am home and feeling better - looking forward to PT - Dr. Riggs is thorough, personable, direct and kind - particularly to older patients like me! Kudos!
