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.

Compassionate and knowledgeable. Cares about what’s going on. Coordinates with other doctors when needed. Always follows up. Doesn’t treat anyone as though they are better or worse than any other person.

Dr Richardson is an excellent physician. As a patient with a tough and unique abdominal issue, my case is not easily treated. I am treated with dignity, respect and kindness. Dr Richardson is business-like and there isn't a long wait. Most staff are friendly....and compassionate. They will liste to your care and respond the best they can. I highly recommend!

I've been a patient of Dr. Richardson for about 3 years now. I highly recommend her. She really cares about her patients. She goes out of her way to make sure you have the best treatment for the patient and if she can't get give the proper treatment, she'll make sure you are sent to an office that can help you. Office call wait time are very short. Her new office is wonderful great new place.
