My experience with Dr. Rettinger was my first appointment and thankfully will not be my last. Dr. Rettinger is one of the only physicians I see that started our conversation by saying that she wanted to hear what was going on and for me to take all the time I needed. That allowed me the time to focus on explaining the last five years of various diagnoses, symptoms, possibilities of causes of symptoms, current diagnosis of thyroiditis and treatment plan. Dr. Rettinger asked questions, offered opinions and food for thought as she felt important to our conversation. I never felt that what I was saying was being dismissed or rushed. I felt that based on my first interrelation with Dr. Rettinger, she is one of the most insightful, intuitive and intelligent physicians I have had the pleasure of meeting.

The doctor is exceptional. Listens very well and asks probing questions related to the disease and medication. Her skill has helped me enormously. My disease was quite serious when I first saw her; I was quite sick and substancially incapasitated. She reviewed the records thoroughly and found problems in previous testing that other doctors had either not recognized or ignored. She ordered highly specialized tests and prescribe medication that she frequently updated based on my progress with the treatment. Presently my disease is stable because she monitors me closely. I am grateful to have found highly qualified doctors at SJPP who have developed plans of care for me that have effective. Dr Rettinger is one of the best.

I really liked her warm and intimate approaches. She explained things that very easy to understand and listened to my questions. I would definitely recommend her to my family and friends. Except, it was very hard to get an appointment with her since it had taken a few months for me to have gotten an appointment with her. Anyway, So far you guys services are the best. Thank you very much.

Suggestion. The doctor was very thorough and informative and helpful. However the sheer amount of information was too much to retain even a couple hours after the appointment. It would be very useful to receive an after visit summary. With next steps and an actual summary of what was discussed. Right now my after visit summary on "My Chart" has zero useful information .

Dr.Rettinger is the best provider I have on my team. I was a patient of hers at her last practice, and have followed her because she is absolutely the best provider I have ever had. She takes the time to listen, understand and has empathy for her patients. She takes time to listen to my questions, albeit sometimes repetitive. My health is better because of her.

Really liked Dr Rettinger - I have seen my fair share of endocrinologists over the years and she stands out to me as one of the best I have yet to come across. She is smart-relatable - she listens she asks good questions and she has sensible advice - she also doesn't come across as judgmental. I would recommend her to anyone needing an endocrinologist .

Great Dr.. Really liked how careful she was and spend time with me without feeling rushed, my only concern is the appointment started quite late, the front desk ladies didn't even call for the check until after my apt time- even though I had also checked in online- so it was 40min plus late...other then that great experience

She was very thorough in exploring both pros and cons of various options. She gathered a detailed history to make sure of potential risks and benefits to make sure that her suggestions were gonna be the right ones for me. She was friendly and personable. She answered all of my questions in ways I could understand.
