Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Good doctor
Dr. Richards has a nice, friendly and professional demeanor so that is why I transfer my care to her.

Dr. Richards is an amazing. She is intelligent, efficient and respectful of her patients. Her office staff, however, could use some training with regard to patient privacy and integrity. After an efficient exam by Dr. Richards, a member of her staff barged in while I was dressing. Rather than respectfully apologizing and closing the door to allow me to finish dressing, she stood in the doorway, holding the door wide open, grilling me with questions. The disregard was stunning.

So, I’m posting this review because when I was searching for information on Dr. Richards all I could find was pregnancy and delivery reviews. I was about to have a hysterectomy & wanted to know more about her surgical skills. So... I’ll let you know that they are excellent! She also provided me excellent post-op care inpatient and outpatient. I have finally had a positive experience with an OBGYN & thought you should know. This momma rarely gives 5 stars to a doctor so there ya have it.
