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.

I am so thankful I went to Dr . Richards . He is very compassionate he picks up on things some others may overlook he actually made me feel more confident about my healthcare and he seems to really care about me. I tell everyone about him . Very very smart and thorough.

I'm incredibly glad I switched to him as my PCP, I could tell from my first couple visits that he genuinely seems to care about his patients. I've already recommended him to a family member that was looking for a Primary Care Physician.
