Verified patient
Doc was very knowledgeable and professional. She's thorough and offered other treatment options for me. She and the staff are very friendly and easy going.
The office was in a separate part of the building due to water damage, understandable after the storm and burst pipes. The doctor was kind and listened to my concerns, but was a bit brusque, definitely in a hurry, while treating me and didn't always indicate what she was doing or why.
Dr. Richards was friendly and addressed all my concerns. Very little wait time and staff was super helpful. Will absolutely visit again for my next annual screening.
Verified patient
Very efficient and professional.
Dr. Richards and team were absolutely outstanding. It was so refreshing to find a Doctor who was on time, clearly explained everything and had a friendly demeanor. If she ever starts doing family medicine I would be even happier:-).
