Patient Reviews
Oct 25, 2023
I was referred to Dr. Richard Richardson by my primary physician's office after being diagnosed with breast cancer. I can't say enough about Dr. Richardson and his staff. Dr. Richardson walked me through every step of the process and always made sure all my questions were answered. He was comforting but also realistic in helping me understand the expected outcome of my prognosis. Every appointment and follow up I had were made promptly and with sense of urgency. In numerous times, Dr. Richardson reached out to me outside office hours to let me know findings of any recent test results (Pathology, MRI, Biopsy...etc). He understands the anxiety and fear a patients feels while waiting for results and reachd out to me as soon as he receives them. My surgery went well and still recovering from it. He is already highly recommended but thought I would share my experience. Sending big Thanks to Dr. Richardson and his staff!
