Patient Reviews
I'M NOT JEFFREY
I didnt see Dr. Rink...but I did see PA-C Jason Ryckeghem (his assistant). Ohhhhhh my God, sweet Baby Jesus thank you. He is amazing. He spoke to me in terms that I could understand complete with pictures and arrows (LOL). The upmost respect to Dr. Rink but Im thankful, it was devine intervention that I wasnt able to meet with him. His knowledge, passion and understanding are unmatched. His willingness to explain, teach and ensure you have a clear understanding about YOU, is remarkable. If I can have him for all things, I would. No questions asked..because he answered them accordingly.❣️
Great experience. Dr Rink is kind and caring
D.O. RINK You do a great job with good info and great year's of work you do every day . Thank's Al Stender
Iâve been seeing Dr Rink off and on for the last few years..hip pain..not fun. I was in his office more often as the shots werenât always cutting it. He kept bringing up hip surgery and I didnât wanna think about itâ¦wellâ¦itâs 2026 and ugh⦠we now have a date coming up soon for surgery. I want my life back..pain free. I wanna work in my flower gardens, have lunch with friends, travel. Dr Rink will get me back out there and I so look forward to it. Soâ¦hereâs to a new meâ¦soon.
Dr Rink is the best! When I see him I know I'm going to get the best care and understand everything.
Dr Rink explained every thing and gave me multiple options to chose from.
Dr. Rink and his team are truly outstanding. They took the time to walk me through everything, making sure I felt informed and comfortable every step of the way before moving forward.
Dr. Rink was moderately late to my first consultation with him, but I assume that was due to his being as thorough with his other patients as he was with me. He explained everything very clearly, answered my questions and concerns, and listened to my suggestions while expressing his own recommendation for my treatment plan with confidence. I felt reassured by the depth of his experience.
Dr. Rink was very thorough and kind. He explained what was going on with my shoulder and set up a treatment plan. I like that he showed me the x-rays that were taken. It was a very efficient visit.

Told me exactly what was wrong and what could be done in terms that i could understand. Great person and doctor
Great new building….welcoming staff … and a talented empathetic Doctor
Excellent doctor visit with Dr Peter Rink. Listened to my concerns, examined my knee thoroughly and made reasonable recommendations. Couldn’t ask for more!
Dr Rink is very kind, professional and explains the details of the x-rays. And gives me the options of what to in my situation. I wouldn’t go to another ORA Dr than him. He’s the best. I trust him hold heartedly. ORA is very lucky to have such an intelligent Dr on their staff. Good job Dr Rink. Keep up the good work that you do. God Bless
Dr Rink is fantastic!
Dr. Rink and his staff did a great job during my visit this week!!!
Did a great job with both surgeries, great and friendly staff and great follow up after procedure.
Great experience with Dr rink and his PAC! Will definitely refer others!
I was very impressed with doctor Rink, his bedside manner and genuine caring attitude towards my injury.Even though his office was filled with patients I never felt rushed.
Dr. Rink and Jason and staff are very professional, courteous and helpful.
Dr. Rink is a excellent surgeon. In every visit he took time to explain and share xrays, the surgery procedure. He didn't act rushed or in a hurry. He is personable and answered all my questions patiently and thoroughly. My first knee replacement went well, and 3 years later he is doing my other knee. Highly recommend Dr. Rink.

I love Dr. Rink, I always have a good visit every time I come in. I know exactly what I need to do when I leave.
I appreciated Dr. Rink, the time he took to explain the procedure, listening to my questions! Thanks
I have been working with Dr. Rink at ORA Orthopedics since July 2025. It has been a pleasure to be treated by a physician that is both knowledgeable and communicates well his patients. He took the time to explain the components of my shoulder and how they work together smoothly when performing properly. Then he explained to me the factors that could be causing me discomfort. All this was explicated in a manner that I could understand. My diagnosis was followed by a comprehensive plan of action to make me whole again. I would recommend Dr Rink to anyone who has an injury and is looking for a physician to assist them in returning to full capacity.
very good job explaining what can be done to fix the problem
Thus far very pleased come January 30th we will see.
I had the best care. Dr. Rink was Informative, direct and so very kind. He made sure I understood all my options. I highly recommend him to anyone.
I thought Dr Rink was going to exam me but they had the guy who does the surgical procedures with him instead. He was very adamant about the VA following up on my MRI I was given on July 15th 2025. Told me I needed to get a specialist for pain or neurologist.. as the VA had already mentioned to me. I have been going to Palmer but for some reason I was experiencing pain in my hip that Dr Rink replaced on May 8th 2024. The gentleman said it wasn't my hip that it was my back so I called the VA clinic and relayed the message to my primary care doctor. I also called Palmer for an appointment for lower lumbar adjustment and I am trying a acupuncture specialist in Moline IL on Wednesday of next week. I'm trying everything before going to the extreme of surgery or injections. Ty very much for your time and patience. Respectfully Wendy Kizer
Dr. Rink and staff are always thorough and professional. I always feel at ease on my visits. Everyone is polite and cordial. Would recommend them to anyone,
Had to Wait a couple hours to see him which he promptly apologized for but there were a lot of people waiting. Heâs up front and to the point. I was not particularly pleased with the diagnosis but I believe he was honest and knows about knees which is why I was there. He drained 29 ccâs of fluid off my knee and gave me a cortisone shot along with his honest opinion. The wait was lengthy but once heâs with you, it doesnât take long.
Dr. Rink was very through and personable.
Dr. Rink is a competent, compassionate, and thorough surgeon. My hip replacement procedure and recovery went very well.
Very good service
Very professional as always. Known him since 2019. He's the man!!!!
Dr Rink is a very polite gentlemen has Great bedside manners and makes you feel like you matter doesn't rush in n out listens to you n your concerns. I would definitely recommend him to anyone

Dr. Rink listened to my concerns, performed an appropriate assessment and shared his findings. Together we made a plan for my care and supported my requests.
Fantastic . Very thorough & explained everything in detail . Now I understand what is going on with my knee & what is being done to correct it . I am extremely confident in my doctor & highly recommend him to anyone in need of an orthopedic specialist.

Dr. Rink and the ORA staff are always friendly and professional. Dr. Rink has the patient's health and future goals always a huge part of the treatment plan. It seems he cares about you as person as much as you as his patient.

Dr Rink was highly recommended by a good friend who had recently had a knee replacement. Everyone at ORA was very friendly from the time I walked into the facility.

Dr. Rink was very thorough in finding the tendon that was causing the problem. He thought the physical therapy was the right way to hopefully solve the problem.
Realize I am a mess. Took time to listen, studied my health, communicating the problem and getting me on a path to solve it. Even understood my career.

Peter is one of the best PAs ORA has to offer! He is kind and thorough. He took as much time as I needed to have me fully understand what was causing pain and all the treatment options that were available. He is someone I would send my entire family to and not think twice.
Jason, PA was very knowledgeable and personable. Answered any concerns regarding pain in my wrist and elbow
Had a wonderful experience, Dr Rink is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to talk to. I have complete confidence I will be taken care of. Thank you!
I twisted my right knee while walking late Saturday night by stepping onto a non-level surface. I couldn’t walk without the help of my husband the rest of that night, or the following day. I went to ORA once back home, and met with Jason Ryckeghem, Dr. Rink’s Physician Assistant. ORA took several necessary X-rays and then PA Jason gave me a thorough explanation of those results. He answered my questions, and offered suggestions based on the findings. I felt PA Jason was a talented professional. He took the time to talk with me and determine my next steps (no pun intended!). I was satisfied with my treatment , PA Jason and ORA. Kind, pleasant, knowledgeable and professional providing great patient care!
Kind, caring, helpful, explained things well.
I seen Dr. Rink on 7-3-2025 for a knee injection. My last injection was so painful I was screaming. This time Dr. Rink did it and I had no issues, did not scream etc. He has the magic touch. He was really friendly, I really appreciated the information he gave Me the time he spent with me and my granddaughter that I had with me and I would definitely come back in a heartbeat and see him. Thank You Dr. Rink
Very knowledgeable. Explains clearly in language we understood. Neat appearance.
How he sat and explained everything to us. I felt very comfortable. He's a great doctor.

Straight forward about condition and treatment options.
Extremely pleased with Dr. Rink, and his PA Jason, and his entire team. Everyone is so pleasant and efficient. Dr. Rink takes the time to explain everything before you make the decision to have surgery. I 100% recommend Dr. Rink, his team and ORA.
Great staff. Not a long wait time. Very clean. My doctor was knowledgeable and really took the time to explain everything to me in a way I could understand.
Dr Rink was informative, professional, knowledgeable, and very kind. I would highly recommend him !
Our appointment was at 1:40. We arrived at 1:25 and checked in. We Did not get called until after 2 o’clock and we waited another half hour or more in the room for the doctor to come see us. Very disappointed at their scheduling. Dr. Rink is OK.
Everyone is so nice and very helpful.
Super good Doctor the really cares about you. Hard to find Doctors like him
I have seen Dr Rink for several of my orthopedic issues over the last 20+ years. He’s preformed 2 successful surgeries and has always been very empathetic and attentive to my concerns and needs. I would recommend him to anyone searching for help with their orthopedic needs.
Dr Rink was amazing. Listened to my concerns, answered all my questions, was kind and patient. I would recommend him to anyone.
What we thought was going to be a sprain or bruise ended up in a broken tibia for my 16 month old. Peter did an amazing job breaking down how the process worked.. what the next steps were going forward.. and answering all the questions I had. Would definitely recommend!
Got into examination room quickly, but then had a lengthy wait. Dr. Rink was nice, as always, professional and thorough with explaining my issues and options. Feel at ease when I see him. The absence of the last star was the wait.
Dr Rink and the staff are wonderful. Wait was long but I had a book;)!
I had a very good experience. The doctor showed me my test results and x-rays and explained what is going on with me. He gave me options as to what I can do. I didn't feel pressured into anything. He listened to what I had to say. My husband and I liked him
Always a good experience with the staff at ORA.
Kind soft spoken and caring Doctor
A totally professional and complete process from initial evaluation to ongoing follow-up post surgery. Dr. Rink and his team have been complete and explained all aspects of the procedure fully and have been very attentive to my post-op pain and condition. Highly reccomend them.

Very knowledgeable professional and kind!🥰
Great Doctor. Listened attentively and explained everything in detail! Will have a FU appt with him and I would only want to be seen by him!
I went to him for a second opinion after seeing another doctor that said he did not need to x-ray my hand for a trigger thumb surgery, when a previous doctor in another state did and so did Dr Rink and Dr Rink also diagnosed me with severe arthritis, which two other doctors missed. Thank you, Dr Rink.
Dr Rink did an excellent job of explaining my fracture and irs treatment plan. Thank you
I’m very happy being under Dr. Rinks care. I had rotator cuff surgery and am still recovering but so far so good. He cares very much about his patients. I have been told by others he’s one of the best doctors for this kind of surgery and I agree.
Dr. Rink is great to work with. I had rotator cuff surgery and am still recovering but everyday things are getting better.
He explained everything there was to know about knee surgery. I’ve never had a doctor spend so much time with me. Really like him.
Polite and professional.. very informative and they gave me options to do. I was shown my ex rays . making my own decision on how to follow through with all the information I have been told.
Check in was easy. Hardly any wait time. The PA that took care of me was amazing , explained both of my issues very well , even tho I wasn’t real happy with my news I was given all went very well.
