About Dr. John Ditto
Dr. John Ditto is a board-certified Otolaryngology Head and Neck surgeon and a fellow of the American Academy of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery. He received his medical degree from the University of Missouri-Columbia School of Medicine. His research even landed him a scholarship from the Student National Medical Association, as he received the Outstanding Achievement Award in Medical School.
After Medical School, Dr. Ditto received his training in disorders of the Ear, Nose & Throat at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery. While in residency, his research was published in the Archives of Otolaryngology. Post-residency, he completed a fellowship in otology at the University of Michigan, as well.
After residency Dr. Ditto practiced in Jefferson City, MO where he ultimately sat on the Board of Examiners for the State of Missouri. He later relocated to Richmond where he has been practicing for a majority of the last 20 years. During his time in Richmond he has been recognized as a Richmond Top Doctor in Otolaryngology many times by his peers.
Dr. Ditto, in the beginning of 2020, decided that he wanted to venture out and open a Sinus & Allergy Center in the Short Pump area in Richmond, focusing specifically on minimally invasive treatments for the many patients that suffer from these issues. His ultimate goal is to treat patients with the most state of the art equipment in a safe office based setting that allows patients to take as little time off of work as possible, while getting the relief they deserve.

Excellent care by Ms Kenya Cypress. Used the scans to explain my problems in detail. Answered all questions. Was very attuned to any discomfort that the procedure may cause. Gave thorough instructions as to my follow up self care. Seldom have I met a health professional so engaged and competent. She deserves six stars. Thanks Kenya.
January 16, 2026Steve W.Verified patient

The best doctor I’ve been to. The office is nice and the staff communicates well. The process was easy and clear. The doctor is thorough and professional. He’s a great listener and listens to every symptom. By far the most professional experience I’ve had with Zocdoc!
January 6, 2026Manprit K.Verified patient
Kenya was amazing. The entire staff was great! I normally would have expected to see the physician who I scheduled the appointment with, however, the staff and Kenya made up for it 100 times!
December 23, 2025Sheena L.Verified patient
I saw Kenya for my appointment, she is whom I usually see when I make an appointment!
Everyone in the office is very professional and I have always have a pleasant experience
there. Lydia and Asia are always welcoming both in person and on the phone.
I booked with Zoc Doc and was put in with Dr Ditto. They changed it to a half hour later than my Zoc Doc time, which was fine and I saw Kenya whom I usually see. I have always had a great appointment with her, she explains everything and takes care of my issues whatever they are at the time.
It is also nice to be able to call and almost immediately speak with someone and they, usually, Lydia or Asia are always pleasant!
December 16, 2025Julie T.Verified patient
Wow! In the age of mediocre medical care, this practice stands head and shoulders above!!! From scheduling an appointment to actually being able to see my sinus problems on screen, this office uses the latest technology for patients. I will require a procedure to fix my sinus problem and then some allergy testing to look for a root cause. But, I am 100% confident this is the place for my problem to be resolved.

My experience at Breathe Free with Dr. Ditto was outstanding. The staff from the front desk check-in to the ending check-out were great! They greeted me with a smile and professionally ready to help me complete my check-in paper work.
Dr. Ditto and his nurse Danielle were excellent. She did all the prep work and had my information ready for Dr. Ditto when he came in. Dr. Ditto was very professional and thorough answering my questions, patiently and in a manner that I could understand. I would highly recommend Dr. Ditto and his office to anyone needing the ENT services.
November 9, 2025Cheryl S.Verified patient
Excellent staff! Very professional yet friendly and engaging. Medical staff are very clear in communication and explaining what they are doing and why. Great listeners. Dr. Ditto is really, really good at interfacing with a patient and is super thorough with his questions and responses to patient questions. Never seemed hurried or distracted for a second. When he’s with you he is really focused on you. Impressed physician who has an excellent rapport with his staff and they are a wonderful team. I’ll be going back for a follow up and fully expect the same excellent care. I will recommend this practice to anyone who needs related care. Top notch.
October 20, 2025Steven C.Verified patient
I had such a great experience at Richmond Breathe Free. From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming and professional. The provider, Kenya Cypress FNP, explained everything clearly, offered thoughtful recommendations, and gave me practical steps I could start using immediately. I left the appointment feeling hopeful and with a much better understanding of my condition and treatment options. I highly recommend Richmond Breathe Free to anyone!
September 16, 2025Seth J.Verified patient
This is the best doctor visit I have ever had. The NP Kenya was very effective. She explained everything to me in great detail, especially the imagery. Her diagnosis was right on the money and she made me feel comfortable.
I drove over an hour to their office and felt every minute was worthwhile. Beautiful office, very clean, and the staff was the best I had ever seen. I am going to sing their praises to anyone who will listen and encourage people to take a ride to experience doctorial professionalism. This office gives relief in the way every patient should expect.

I had a fantastic experience at Richmond breathe free sinus & allergy centers! From the moment I walked in, the front desk staff was welcoming, efficient, and organized. The waiting time was minimal, and the environment was clean and calming.
Kenya Cypress FNP BC was extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and thorough in explaining everything about my condition. They took the time to listen to my concerns and answer all my questions without rushing. The examination was gentle but comprehensive, and I really appreciated how clearly they explained the treatment options.
The nurse and support staff were also kind, professional, and made me feel completely at ease.
Overall, I highly recommend this ENT office to anyone needing ear, nose, or throat care. It’s rare to find a medical office that’s this efficient while still maintaining such a personal, caring approach.

10/10 love their office
June 21, 2025Lauren H.Verified patient
Dr. John Ditto communicates clearly, and explains medical language in layman's terms. He checked my E and T, even though I came in for my N. He didn't seem rushed. His Nurse/Assistant was efficient, but took time to explain an upcoming procedure - and emailed me back quickly when I had a follow up question.
June 6, 2025Gwynne C.Verified patient
The NP was phenomenal. Excellent bedside manner. And Dr. Ditto was excellent. They explained everything and since I am a healthcare professional I could relate to everything about my whole experience ( health wise). Sincerely, I am forever grateful for their acts of kindness. It was a warm feeling from beginning to the end. Thanks, and I am looking forward to my return with the NP and Dr. Ditto. God bless.
May 7, 2025Rita C.Verified patient
I absolutely loved being seen by Kenya! She was so personable and informative. She made me feel extremely comfortable in my exams, confident that I was finally being given the correct and put at ease once I left the office. The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and welcoming. The office is very clean and well kept. Everyone there really supported my autonomy and gave clear communication as well as great advice. I would definitely HIGHLY recommend this practice. It was worth driving from North Carolina for.
