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.

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!
Excellent care!
Dr Rivedal has been very caring and explained everything throughly. I would recommend him and his office to anyone!
It was an great experience for my level of pain
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.
Dr. David Riverdale was running behind which is totally normal for any person to occasionally do.. I was totally fine with it bc the staff made several announcements and kept us posted... I was kinda sad that some of the people waiting were so rude about it ..
First time being here! Very happy with the treatment!
I'm new to the clinic and Dr. Rivadel has impressed me as well as the staff. I feel really comfortable in his care
Thank you Doctor Rivedal and all the supporting staff!!!
Dr. Rivedal was so helpful in explaining my options, professional, kind. Abbie was helpful also. Excellent care!! Many thanks!
Great doctor
This was my 2nd procedure with Dr. Rivedal. He maintained excellent communication throughout my procedure and was respectful during shared medical decision making. He gave me timely updates and explanations of all the pathology findings. I trust him regarding my care and glad to have him as my doctor.
This was a very warming experience. The provider was easy to share my concerns and explain my options. I have visited this center before. The staff is always so friendly and feel you're getting the best care. Thank You.
Thank goodness for the Care and service I received today from my care team. I received pain relief and a brace for my wrist issues. Thank you all again.
Dr. RIVEDAL WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND PROPERLY CONSERVATIVE IN HIS DIAGNOSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CARE.
First visit with Dr. Rivendal and he listened well and asked additional questions before treating. Personable and approachable. I sensed he is very knowledgeable and thorough.
Very kind and interested in my care.
No the appointment went well
I liked the clarity of describing procedures and procrss.
My future care was of great concern to the Doctor and staff. Looking forward to seeing your care team in the future for a final solution to my health Care needs.Thank you all again.
Dr Rivendale is so empathetic and patient. He even treats old people like me with respect. He's definitely a keeper!
