This is one of the best medical practices I have experienced, period. Dr. Rios is an excellent listener with deep knowledge of medicine which he applies quickly to diagnose a wide range of issues. Furthermore, he is smart and confident enough to refer patients to specialist when it's appropriate. I cannot recommend Dr. Rios more strongly.

Dr. William Rios is low key yet concerned about one's health; convivial, knowledgeable and informative, warm, proactive, and good natured. He must have a very nice dog at home.

Dr.Rios is professional and very helpful. It does not seem to me that he orders unnecessary tests, which is such a positive thing! I feel very comfortable having him as my doctor.

Recently had an acute illness and was seen the day I called. Dr Rios treated me with good outcome. Whether it's a routine annual or for a problem, he always takes time to go over everything, reviews our charts and keeps track of our meds, makes sure we get appropriate tests. He's kind as well as thorough. We change our insurance just to keep him our G.P. His nurse follows up after appointments as needed.

I wish that there were ten stars for each of the above categories, because Dr. Rios would receive 10 for all. He is bright, analytical, and caring. What a great guy and super physician!! Never failed me or my husband.
