Dr. Ralph Edward Retherford, MD

Truly cognizant of patients needs in the event patient is unable to accurately describe successfully patient's condition. Dr Retherford successfully banished most of my constant pain. I now live out of CA ; would consider visiting Sononra just got one more treatment; and an opportunity to see Dr R..

Disgusting and rude. Told me I had, "bladder cancer, or worse, KIDNEY CANCER." Saw another doctor. I had neither.

In an era where science is not scientific, Dr. Retherford is a doctor who will help you navigate the myriads of articles saying what you should and shouldn't do. He reads the research and explains it carefully to you. He won't push unnecessary tests or medications. He prefers to treat the "whole" patient, not just the symptoms. We need more doctors like Dr. Retherford.

I like his body/mind understanding. He isn't fast to rush to medicine, medical tests or surgery, would rather look at recent research and treat the whole person. However, he WILL make sure you see a specialist if he feels you need one.

See all of the above. You are not just a patient to Ralph. You are his friend. He takes time to get to know you and CARES about YOU and what meds you are taking and should or should not be taking. He truly has your best interest at heart. If he tells you something believe him. If your looking for a great Doctor look no farther. Ralph is the best. I've been his patient for 3 years.

I've since moved my whole family to Dr. Retherford.
