Patient Reviews
Jun 30, 2024
Dr. Ricci is a smart, dedicated and incredible surgeon. At our initial visit he examined me, explained to the very last detail what he observed and was complete in his suggestions for next steps. On the day of the procedure he went over all of the possible outcomes. The surgery was successful and the follow up was again detailed.
