Dr Rice is everything you could hope for in a doctor. He listens to your concerns, answers questions, professional and courteous. Dr Rice works with you on treatment and is an excellent communicator with a fantastic bed side manner. Oh, and he is a really nice person as well! You couldn't ask for more.

Dr Rice is a very nice and friendly man that seems like he really cares about his patients. He takes time to ask you questions and to listen to anything that you have a question about. He keeps on top of your lab work and he does a good job of refilling your prescriptions. I could not ask for a more understanding and caring provider.
