Dr. Denise Patrice Ricketts

.

The whole experience was horrible from the moment you walk in. People are tired of waiting in doctors offices people are tired of filling out your paperwork every time it's not necessary you look in your records They want you to do their work for them now. I have made calls to her with questions about medication and also blood work and never receive calls back she stares at the computer the whole time she does not put your symptoms and your medical records she focuses on one thing that's it she gives a lot of referrals and doesn't even tell you that she's doing it and all the sudden you get calls I have your anal exam what ??????didn't know anything about that... she prescribes medicine you don't want and then does nothing about it when you bring it to the office attention they do nothing about it either she has no compassion she's like a robot doesn't want to help you figure out what's wrong with you just wants to / scribe toxic poisonous drugs that make you sicker does not care about your past history I think she's a horrible doctor that could care less she's typical of how the system works now they just want to collect your office visit send you for tons of Imaging tons of blood work and ship you off to all doctor friends I will never go back to her again. I have fibromyalgia she never once wanted to talk about anything about that and all the symptoms that go along with that she focuses on two of your symptoms and that's what she does every time never going back

Dr. Ricketts and her staff are always so caring and understanding. Always ready to do what it takes to do what you need. She must give them all happy pills or something. They are all easy to talk to and make adjustments. Dr. Ricketts is very east to talk to and I mean about anything. She doesn't get put off or act funny because you asked her something that might sound strange to us but not to doctors. If she moved her office closer to her home...we would continue with her out of county because and excellent caring doctor and staff is very difficult to find. Thank you Dr. Ricketts and Staff.

If I could give Dr. Ricketts no stars I would. All these reviews must be her friends and family. She’s only interested in making money. She schedule so many people in one day that we all look like a herd of cows in the waiting room. You wait two hours to see her she spends five minutes with you and literally cuts you off to tell you she has to go see another patient. She’s also not really interested in your medical history and that’s obvious because even after having the patient’s records to review she’s completely clueless during the office visit and still knows absolutely nothing about my condition. I would not recommend her to anybody. However her staff is pretty pleasant the majority of the time. There is one gal up front that is very sassy and inappropriate.

Very professional from top to bottom. Dr Rickets actually listens to what you have to say. Extremely knowledgable but speaks in terms the average person understands. Big bonus is blood work etc is taken in house.

She is the best, love her.

not impress with her staff, they can get thing done in a timely manner

Dr. Rickett's takes the time to listen to the patient and helps with all your medical concerns.

I love Dr. Ricketts. She is calm and friendly, thoughtful and capable. Heart & Family Health has been a very good facility in Port St Lucie for the past three years. Now there is the addition of having all available personal medical records online. Brilliant.

I truly love this Dr.. She is kind though and always pleasant. Her staff is always pleasant as well.

Took time to answer all of my questions and concerns. I recommend her.

I have been seeing Dr. Ricketts for several years and have felt she is very knowledgeable and willing to answer my questions. She takes the time to listen and is quite professional in talking with me. I have confidence in her ability to handle any medical problems I may have.

I have now been a patient of Dr Ricketts, I believe when she first arrived in Pt St Lucie, in fact, I do believe I was one of her first patient. As a retired member of the drug industry (over 45 years) I have met well over 1000s of physicians in my career. In all these years in calling on all these doctors I have yet to meet one as qualified and personal as Dr Ricketts. She never rushes you, makes you feel as though you are her only patient, and when you leave your office, you always leave with a smile. As long as I am around I will always be a patient of Dr Ricketts, as being her patient I know I am in good hands. Her staff as well are 4 stars, her phlebodomist/nurse, Alexandria is also a very good caregiver who always has a smile and raelly knows her job. Rest of the staff is topnotch too.

Dr. Ricketts is professional. A visit with Dr. Ricketts typically goes as follows: Upon entering the exam room the patient is greeted with a cheery hello by your first name and a big smile. Then you are asked so how are you? Thus begins your visit. A very attentive listener Dr Ricketts will hear you describe your situation regarding your health and well being. She will then ask you ask questions pertinent to what you have shared with her. Research the answers to the questions she has posed to you and then begin her examination. She is gentle, kind,and seeks to help the patient find relief to their particular situation. She takes action immediately. If you need x-Rays for example she will schedule for them to b done immediately downstairs of her office. Dr. Ricketts is a no nonsense professional. Dr. Ricketts aim is to fix you to the best of her ability and will refer you to another doctor if need be. Her office staff follows her lead. Upon your arrival you are greeted warmly and with a smile. As they come to know you it is like seeing a friend when you enter the office. All the staff is caring and are good listeners as well. They will ask "how you are" with genuine interest. They are also gathering information for Dr. Ricketts. They are observing you and evaluating you before you even see Dr. Ricketts so that they can give her a report on their observations. Your health and well being is of the upmost importance to everyone in Dr. Ricketts employ. This is the doctor patient relationship you want. I recommend Dr. Ricketts to EVERYONE, my friends, strangers anyone Whom I run across who might be in need of a good doctor I highly recommend them to see Dr. Ricketts. I think I should carry her business cards!! The one draw back on the questionnaire ...not enough stars to rate the quality of care.

LISTENS TO YOU. SPENDS TIME TO GIVE ACCURATE DIAGNOSIS.
