    I like Dr. Riel very much. Explained my arm injury very well and what was to be expected to do with my injury.

    Dr Riel was very kind, considerate as I told him why I needed a new cast. I trust his judgment and his decision

    Spent most of his time looking at the computer and not focusing on me. After he was finished he just walked out of the room. Didn't say "well, I'll see you in surgery," or "I'll get you taken care of," not any type of closure to the visit. Very little interaction.

    Dr. Reil was extremely a professional. From his introduction, to listening, to explaining arthritis and the steps he can take to diminish the pain, and if that didn't effectively work, then he could operate. I'm very grateful I have answers now and know what to expect.
