This very pleasant Dr. Gave me my Covid booster shot yesterday at the Brookside Clinic. I was very impressed with his excellent ability to make you feel at ease and that you were not just another person in a lineup. He took the time to explain who he was, have some jovial conversation, explain the vaccine, and administered the same in a quick, yet efficient manner. If I were a patient, I would certainly feel very confident knowing he was the one administering the anesthesia. Thanks, "Dr. Rick". I'm sure you have made a difference in the lives of countless people, young and old alike!! You have chosen the right profession! 🙂

This doctor gave me my COVID vaccine. Absolutely wonderful experience. I came in nervous (just socially, not about the vaccine or the procedure itself) and he made me feel so at ease.

Dr. Retallick is a dream with children. He actually has them laughing before surgery, which helps put parents at ease. Anyone who has this caring doctor should count themselves very lucky.

We are so grateful for Dr. Rick during my Cesarean section. He came in earlier and explained everything in details and gave me precaution about the possble pain level. He took extra efforts in explaining every step during the oepration, which lowered significantly my anxiety level during Csection. Thank you so much, Dr. Rick!

I was very nervous for my tonsillectomy. Before the surgery, he came in to go over everything. He explained everything clearly and asked if I had any questions, but also had me laughing during this entire time. A great doctor!
