Patient Reviews
Apr 09, 2021
Dr. Richards is an exceptional physician who may have saved my husbands life. My husband was diagnosed with a rare bacterial infection and if it wasn’t for Dr. Richards exceptional care and commitment to find the cause, his infection likely would have spread to other vital organs. Dr. Richards has always taken the time to carefully review all of the test results with us and answer all of our questions. He’s smart, kind, super responsive and we will always be grateful to him that he is leading the team to regain my husbands health.
