Patient Reviews
Nov 27, 2020
Dr. Richter spent a lot of time with me and is a talking doctor. The USF Swallowing Clinic does everything right in the same day, test, results, physician meeting and recommendation. Unlike others I went to without research where I had bad experiences with manometry, (don't go to Baycare for this!!) the practitioner who adminstered the manometry here was talented and knew many ways to make it work for me and my gag reflex. They did a quite tolerable yet still difficult esphogeal manometry and barium swallow study same day and the results were immediately available. Then Dr. Richter asked me a lot of questions and diagnosed me not with achalasia but reflux without reaction. He recommended the course of action and schedule the procedure I needed that same day. Healthcare delivered the way it should be everywhere. I can say this was the most professional heatlhcare provider experience I have ever had.
