I agree with others, although Dr Ritzow is skilled he has developed a God Syndrome over the years. He sets unrealistic post-op requirements that cannot be met due to join pain that limits activities. Also there is no follow up after appointments despite the commitment to do so. He forces patients to seek other well qualified surgeons for treatment.

Would never go back to or recommend this surgeon or this so called "state of the art" orthopedic facility. From beginning to end, my experience was riddled with poor care and errors. I was not provided with any home assistancce, equipment, or offered to use their recovery facility (until a week after surgery when I complained about it), poor choice of hardware for my size, boot just "put on" - not fitted, which caused an increase of pain that became chronic, and an 8 week post surgical follow up

I have been a patient of Dr. Ritzow for about 10 years. he has performed 6 surgeries on me, one of which was to fix a rotator cuff repair that another surgeon botched. The only negative I have is the wait time. Everything else is positive -- Dr. Ritzow, Kim his APNP, Liz his medical assistant, the clerical and insurance/surgery staff all are friendly and patient-focused. Dr. Ritzow is patient and kind and has great surgical skills. He explains things in a down to earth way and listens!

Would never recomment Dr. Ritzow. He is arrogant, rude and every appointment I had at least a 20-30 minute wait once I was in the exam room not including waiting room They double booked and have two patients booked for the same time slot. In my opinion he does not care.

Not a expert in Shoulder Replacements, wasn't interested about my occupational disease and how my job as a mail carrier aggravated my shoulder osteoarthritis every day!
