Jeffrey D Ries, DO

My prior Neuro was very stuffy and made me feel like just a number. Dr Ries is very nice and I feel welcome with open arms. Yes they charge for paperwork but most Drs do as well. The staff is awesome and very helpful! I would highly recommend…

This is a mixed review:
Office is clean, but looks like a lawyers office– stuffy-​professional feel. Slightly intimidating.
A lot of staff but noone has time to return calls. Sometimes they are rude until you’re face to face.
Dr. Has a huge ego, but will only listen to you until he is frustrated that he can’t help you and turn you away, quite rudely too, I might add.
My first visit was several years ago. It seemed promising because he seemed to know the ins and outs of my issues and was very up to date on his herb and medicinal knowledge. I had been seeing doctors for over 15 years and I finally got an explanation for what was causing my headaches and migraines. So I thought.
I had previously tried nearly every medicine, herb and otc remedy. After nothing he prescribed me helped, he told me, «you might as well get on something because your issues will never go away.» Not the first time a doctor told me this, sadly. Being super sensitive with lots of allergies, one NEW prescription he gave me had a chemical I was allergic to and was known to me to make my headaches worse. I called to let him know and he insisted I take it. WHAT??? Allergy alert! He didn’t care.
I was referred to an osteopath who was amazing that I still see today.
After my issues progressed, I went back to see him and he was very cocky, threw a bunch of info at me as he exited the room. I was left scratching my head– what just happened? A week later I was referred to another doctor who was more helpful than any other doctor I’d seen in the last 32 years.
If you have a «textbook issue», then he can help you get on some drugs. If not, he can refer you to better doctors that can help you.
Pro– if it wasnt for him, I wouldn’t have been able to get the help I needed on other issues unrelated to my head. He gives great referrals.
Con– Once he’s done with you, he and his personnel are totally rude and treat you like garbage. They love to take your money. They charge for filling out medical documentation and complain about it too! I thought that was illegal…
Good luck!
Review update:
After I quit seeing this dr, he took it upon himself to speak on my new doctor’s behalf regarding my health issues. The comments and opinions were misleading and inaccurate contributing to the denial of disability benefits and job termination. Would give 0 stars is it was possible.

I recently took my mom to see Dr. Ries twice and we were both very impressed with his practice. The office staff are friendly and the wait has never been more than 15 minutes or so which is great for a doctor’s office! Dr. Ries spent a lot of time with us and answered all of our questions and was very caring and kind. He presented information in a straight forward manner and was very thorough in his assessment.
I was so impressed with him that I made an appointment for my husband to see him. I wish every doctor was as skilled and caring as Dr. Ries.

Today, we had to take my family member to see Dr Ries. It was a difficult appointment because we were discussing a plethora of issues including his memory loss and imbalance. Dr. Ries was able to inject humor into a decidedly grim situation and make it more tolerable. He spent a
LOT of time with us and answered every question in a way in which it made sense. I feel so fortunate that he was the physician to whom we were referred. He was very caring and very knowledgeable. Thank you Dr Ries!!!

Don’t waste your time with Dr Ries or his office staff. Very rude, money hungry.
I have lost all my faith in all of the doctors in the inland empire. I have moved all my medical needs to Loma Linda Medical Center. So if you are looking for a excellent doctor, do not go to Dr Ries, D.O.

Dr Ries seems a good Doctor, but his staff are Rude, and arrogant, They refused me medical care because my insurance company (Cigna) took too long to pay them, well, they did say perhaps they would work me in in few weeks if I paid cash… nice

This MD took his time and figured out a medical puzzle for me that 3 dozen others missed. I literally owe him my life. As a specialist, we don’t have a reason to see him since he correctly diagnosed our genetic condition… but we’ve sent others to see him. Unlike so many other neuro MDs, this man doesn’t think he’s God and will admit when he needs to research your issues!
