Patient Reviews

  • "I had a colonoscopy on 10/17 and a cancerous mass was found. A call was made to Dr. Retter's office that day, and I received a call on Monday, 10/20 and was seen by Dr. Retter on 10/23. Everyone at the office was wonderful and kind. Dr. Retter and his PA Jenny made me feel safe and calm. From the folks at the front desk, to the lab techs and nurses, I couldn't have asked for a better first visit. I trust that they will manage my care and that I am safe in their hands."

  • "As always, this office is well attended. I did not realize, my appt was on another day.....they accommodated me and i am so grateful. Thank you."
      from Isabel 5.0 Stars - (2025-10-21)
  • "Dr. Retter and his team are great; caring considerate and thorough. My only issue with them is that if I don’t schedule my follow up visits they just put a date/time on their schedule without telling me! I find out about those appointments when I get the automated reminder texts. But they are good about rescheduling if the times they pick don’t work for me."
      from Kathy 4.0 Stars - (2025-10-20)
