    Dr. Rizzi has been my primary Doctor (and my wife’s primary) for over 20 years. He’s extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, always gives me great advice, and spends time talking to me to find out what’s going on in my life instead of rushing through my yearly physical. He spends time reviewing my medications, and has managed to keep me very healthy over the years. I’m extremely happy with him as my primary doctor.

    He is a smart doctor, but it appears when more of an explanation as needs about an issue, he may be short in his reply’s.
