Dr rignes is an excellent surgeon, but I feel in the long term phase of my recovery he has checked out a bit, and is unable to provide me with any guidance in seeking any non surgical treatments for my long term recovery, even when I directly ask him.

I feel like Dr. Rignes is very professional. He has always answered any questions the best he could. When he couldn't provide a definitive answer, he let me know why.

Dr. RINGNES is always very thorough and amazing so grateful I was able to find him for all of my care which is a lot. I've had two knees and a shoulder replacement in three years.

I like the Doctor, but feel he's become too aggressive for me. I got a second opinion, and it was much different
