Patient Reviews
Sep 08, 2023
I am a survivor of domestic violence. A subsequent car accident which exacerbated my spinal injury. If Patients want pleasant convo, go out to mingle! If you want an incredibly competent, skilled, ethical, strong Surgical opinion w/ appropriate care, see Dr. Richardson. There may be no sunshiny convos, but your prognosis and/or your condition will likely greatly improve, if Dr says he can treat you. Life’s reality is often harsh. He has consistent competency. succinct, caring, direct, ethical. Dr Richardson’s surgery seems a very stable fusion for serious damage, now have stable protection for bones, many nerves. I now have hope that it won’t someday make me paralyzed, or life of constant pain. I have hope now! Truly, find life so odd sometimes, people want pleasant convos, sunshiny answers. Read the room. This Doctor Heals! Nerve damage can go on. Perfection isn’t possible with nerves. Yet SO grateful to Dr Richardson, Destiny and Duke Spine. I can hurt, but I have hope!
