Dr. Riggins, makes you feel like you are THE most important person and she is in present time awaiting to hear what you have to say. She empathized with me when I said I had never experienced my symptoms before. And she relieved my anxiety and fears, when she explained what was wrong. Dr. Riggins is personable and warm and friendly and has excellent bedside manner. I have no problem recommending anyone to her facility.

This was my first visit to Dr. Riggins and I absolutely love her. She is very professional and down to earth. I felt comfortable discussing my concerns with her and she was very reassuring. Her staff was very professional and courteous. I believe your staff makes your practice because they are the first ones a patient encounters and if they are not pleasant to deal with then you don't even want to see the physician.
