I believe having open, honest, and realistic conversations with patients fosters the best outcomes and overall satisfaction. A mutual understanding of where they are coming from and what care I can offer is important to create a collaborative approach and develop the best plan of care.

About

I was born and raised in a suburb of Milwaukee. After a year of fellowship in Michigan, my wife Jules and I are very excited to start our family, and new practice, back home. My wife and I love exploring new restaurants around town, and cooking at home with our dog, Todd. I also enjoy playing golf around Wisconsin, with my favorite course being Brown Deer.

Thanks again for resolving my health issues and getting me back to normal activities.
Dr was excellent staff very helpful
Good visit!!
The whole practice is extremely friendly and very professional in every aspect of the practice
Dr Rivedal and his assistant were very through in explaining my condition and treatment, compassionate and personable. I will highly recommend them!
Getting an appointment was awful. Care received at that appointment was outstanding. Every member of the team was great.
Fast, friendly, effective. Received injection to alleviate clicking finger. Still have some residual symptoms but much improved. MD was thorough providing expert care. Gave me options if this treatment does not resolve the problem. Very satisfied with the treatment I received. Hoping I won't have to have surgery, but time will tell.
It was the most wonderful visit. The second opinion I received for my finger injury could be repaired. Thank you
Dr Rivedale was very understanding and knowledgeable-explained procedure well. Would highly recommend him
Dr. Rivedal and staff are great..knowledgeable concerned, kind and professional.
Dr. Rivedal is caring and thorough. Great bedside manner.
Grateful for the excellent care.
This was my first appointment with Dr. Rivedale. He was great! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a hand specialist.
Dr Rivadol is the best. He showed concern for my health and safety for surgery. His bed side manner is amazing. Makes sure you are comfortable prior to surgery. His staff has all been fantastic as well. 10/10 would recommend to anyone with hand concern.
Thank you immensely for getting me in when we were supposed to leave for a cruise the next day and deeming me ok to go too. My arm is healing well a day we had a lovely time!
Dr. Riverdal is amazing. Personable and compassionate. Professional and knowledgeable.
For me, this was an amazing experience. Everyone respected my needs my timing and what needed to happen and they were so lovely about it.
They were all very kind
Great experience overall. Felt seen and heard by staff and practitioner.
Everyone is great!!!!!!
Both nurse and physician were extremely polite knowledgeable and listened Im beyond grateful.
Excellent Doctor and Nurse. Very efficient and effective. Successful visit.
I was very happy with the whole staff. The surgeon has a great bedside manner too, very calming.
I thought the provider and team at the hand clinic were great! Everyone was friendly and helpful. The doctor provided the diagnosis and follow-up help that I was looking for which was a relief. I really appreciated the care I received and would definitely recommend to anyone looking! I realized that I would have liked to write down some of the information the doctor gave me but I hadn't done so during the visit. I was hoping I would be given a page of notes before leaving but was told that would be on MyChart. I did find some of the information there later.
Everyone was professional and knowledgeable which made my visit excellent. Please continue current practices!
It was an great experience for my level of pain
Dr Rivedal has been very caring and explained everything throughly. I would recommend him and his office to anyone!
Excellent care!
Hand was in pain & fingers locking. MD gave me steroid injections. Pain has resolved. The locking has improved but is taking time to no longer be an inside. MD said it may require another injection in future to fully resolve the locking. Meanwhile doing the exercises provided by OT. I believe this is healable.
Dr. Rivedal and the staff were so friendly and warm. I felt heard and like I was well cared for.
