I had the best time at Dr. Riedl’s office, he was attentive kind and incredibly hands-on during my appointment. I would recommend him and his staff to anyone who needs a pet CT. The office is beautiful and warmly let with natural elements that really put my on my mind it is I was waiting. They also have a fabulous massage chair and really cool content in there waiting rooms. Five stars highly recommend.
***Please expect a phone call from Dr. Riedl's office to confirm your appointment within 24-48 hours of booking.
Dr. Christopher Riedl is a Dual-Board Certified Nuclear Radiologist and former Assistant Professor of Radiology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
