He's fantastic!
Dr ritzman is the best! His nurse (Staff name) is equally as amazing, and (Staff name), the scheduler too! My daughter's been seen by Dr Ritzmans team for years and I wouldn't have it any other way!
Dr. Ritzman was professional and very kind at the same time. I felt like he cared about my daughters well-being and spoke honestly but at the same time was so gentle that it made her trust him.
This doctor took the time with us and was just very nice and very cordial and made my daughter feel very comfortable.
Reception staff was helpful and friendly. Doctor Ritzman was prompt and efficient
I appreciate Dr. Ritzman's time and explanation of my son's x-ray.
NP was also great! He helped my son feel at ease and go through the exam without hassle and quickly. He was personable and professional
This was a second opinion appointment. When we left I felt very comfortable with all the information. We left Pittsburgh children's feeling very uninformed about everything. I appreciated all the time and thoroughness Dr Ritzman and the nurse practitioner took with us.
I believe that Dr Ritzman is very professional. He believes in being thorough he is diligent about his work and knowledgeable about his work Thank you Dr Ritzman
Dr. Ritzman is a kind, reliable and knowledgeable. He is the best of the best in his expertise. I'm so thankful that my kids are in his hands.
