Hair Restoration

Our non-invasive hair restoration treatment combines advanced ultrasound technology with specialized hair care formulas. This innovative approach stimulates scalp health and promotes natural hair growth through improved blood circulation. Patients experience noticeable results in thickness and density without surgical intervention, with most seeing improvements within weeks of starting treatment.

Botox and Fillers

Our certified cosmetic nurse provides expert injectable treatments using premium products from Allergan and Galderma. These treatments effectively reduce wrinkles and restore facial volume through precise administration techniques. Patients receive personalized treatment plans to achieve natural-looking results that enhance their appearance while maintaining facial expressiveness.

Depression Treatment

We offer FDA-cleared NeuroStar TMS Therapy for treatment-resistant depression. This non-invasive procedure uses magnetic stimulation to target specific brain regions associated with mood regulation. Patients receive personalized treatment protocols in comfortable outpatient sessions, with most experiencing significant symptom improvement within four weeks of starting therapy.

In House Lab

Our on-site laboratory provides comprehensive diagnostic capabilities for efficient patient care. Certified phlebotomists perform blood draws with direct electronic interfacing to reference labs. This streamlined process enables faster diagnosis and treatment planning while maintaining strict quality control standards for accurate test results.

Physical Therapy

Our physical therapy suite offers coordinated rehabilitation programs developed in collaboration with treating physicians. Licensed therapists utilize evidence-based techniques to restore mobility and function following injury or surgery. Treatment plans incorporate the latest therapeutic modalities to accelerate recovery and improve long-term outcomes.

I have been a patient here for many years, and I am very grateful to be under the care of PA Tyler Kostecki. He has a wonderful bedside manner, but also importantly, he is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and does a great job explaining all of his decisions and recommendations. These are qualities anyone should look for in a healthcare provider. I will spare the details, but I can also say with confidence that Tyler helped save my life. I am very thankful for him.

Didn't feel like the office was very interested in keeping their patients. They have an online portal with the option to schedule your appointments online, so I used it. Received a message back saying that the doctor is not available during the two weeks window I provided. All other clinics I've been into were always calling back checking what other time works for me, but not here. Felt like they were not interested.

This is a fantastic practice. Doctor Thalheimer is a legend. He's down to earth, chill, takes time to listen, and offers tremendous advise. He's quick to respond to messages in the patient portal. I trust him entirely with my health. If you're reading this, you should disregard any 1 star ratings. Those ratings appear to be from self-entitled customers who will find any reason to complain. The majority of those reviews are not representative of the clinic what-so-ever.

I have been seeing doctors in this practice for over 10 years and it seems that the practice is capitalizing on charging patients unnecessarily. Recently, I've called to ask very simple questions and am always met with a "I'll schedule you a telemedicine appointment." The last two telemedicine appointments I've agreed to have lasted two minutes and I was charged for each visit in full when I had initially requested a quick phone conversation with a doctor or nurse.

Every time I call from now on I am met with the same response. It's unfortunate that I cannot rely on this practice to support me or my family. I've had to relay my questions to my children's pediatrician who have doctors and nurses readily available to field calls for their patients. I will be looking for a new practice, as it seems that many reviewers are experiencing similar financial scams with this practice. They are not trying to help patients, they are trying to make money. I do not recommend this practice!

I had a wonderful experience at Riverside Medical with the Cool Sculpting center. The environment was very relaxing and welcoming. The staff was so accommodating, knowledgeable, and made you feel completely comfortable. JoAnne, was fantastic, and was able to answer all my questions and concerns. She was extremely well-informed and really an expert in this field. I was more than pleased with the remarkable results and will definitely go back to Riverside in the future!
