When I arrived for my 3:15 appointment, there were seven other people in the waiting room - all with appointments for the same doctor. It was 1 hr 20 min before I was in a room, and another 20 min before the doctor came in. He immShow moreediately apologized for the long wait time. I have no idea if this was atypical or not. I was with the doctor no more than 10 min, and leaving 2 hr after arriving. I get that everyone wants to make money, but my time is just as important as a doctor's. We'll see what happens next time....
I avoided getting surgery to fix an inguinal hernia for years. My good experience with Dr Ritter made me realize that I didn't need to worry so much about the surgery and I didn't need to put it off for as long as I did. The firsShow moret two days were pretty tough, I won't lie, but then I started feeling good again. Every day I feel a little stronger and I can already tell that in a few weeks time my quality of life will be way better than it was before surgery. I would recommend Dr Ritter hands down.

Excellent Service. Dr. Ritter answered all my questions. Very professional and experienced. Would recommend him most definitely!!!
Unlike the many doctors I saw when I lived in Austin, Dr. David Ritter knew exactly what needed to be done! I knew immediately he was more than just a regular surgeon but he was someone that actually cared and he wasted no time in scheduling my surgery. I'm not as nervous about this upcoming surgery, because he has totally gained my trust! I can honestly say I feel better already.
