He's very personal and welcomed and addressing the medical issue. I moved to Brooklyn and came back knowing that there will be no waiting and the online appointment was excellent. Got a same day appointment which is unheard of. I would definitely recommend him to others.

Very nice and considerate. He doesn't try and rush you out like most doctors. It was great that he had so much flexibility and availability. Would recommend him to future patients

I would advise any patient coming to this doctor to be aware of what drugs you are being given and how much. Remember to speak up if you feel he is giving you too much.

He's very personal and welcomed and addressing the medical issue. I moved to Brooklyn and came back knowing that there will be no waiting and the online appointment was excellent. Got a same day appointment which is unheard of. I would definitely recommend him to others.

Doctor Rizzo provides a professional and personal service to the patient with no wait time or inconvience especially with making appointments by using ZocDoc. Dr. Rizzo took his time with my exam and answered any and all questions with giving valuable feedback. His bedside manner is excellant and I would highly recommend him to others.

February 20, 2015Howard J.Verified patient
He listened to me and I felt like he spent enough time with me to understand what was going on. It was a pleasant experience and he has checked in with me since; I feel like he truly cared about me as a patient.

A previous commenter mentioned that they had a good conversation with Dr. Rizzo. I also had a good conversation with him. He takes the time to get to know you and he listens. He's also a one man operation at the office which actually was great -- no waiting time between seeing a nurse who takes vitals and then seeing him. I would definitely recommend him.

Cool doc
May 1, 2014Samuel D.Verified patient
Dr. Rizzo was incredible.
I have been to many doctors in the past and I must say, I have never felt so comfortable and at ease as I did with Dr. Rizzo.
He is such an extraordinary person.
Very understanding, patient, and kind.
I would recommend him to anyone and everyone who seeks a primary care physician.
It was a great experience!
