This was my first visit with Dr. Harding. Dr. Harding has an excellent bedside manner. I have a complicated medical history, and Dr. Harding patiently and thoughtfully went through each issue with me step by step. I felt very comfortable with his medical care and his office staff. In fact, I am going to have my mother see Dr. Harding, also.

This doctor doesn’t accept any patients, this was told to me after my appointment was confirmed by the application and after reaching there on time. Wish I had known this earlier.

Dr. Harding is wonderful. The staff at both facilities were awful. Rude, blunt, not very helpful. Blamed me on serval occasions for the mistake that occurred through this horrible zocdoc website.

Richard was running a little late but he didn't rush through my visit and took the time to answer all my questions. He is very knowledgeable and easy to talk with.
June 16, 2016Erik K.Verified patient
Dr. Harding was great. Heard me out listened to all my concerns, I never felt rushed like most Dr. I see some small complaints about wait times that's cause when your with him he takes the time to listen not just push you through.
January 8, 2016Michael C.Verified patient
Dr. Harding is one of the most patient and personable doctors I have ever had...so much so that I'm surprised he isn't completely booked out with patients. It's rare to find a doctor these days who isn't always rushing from patient to patient. Moreover, Dr. Harding keeps up with the latest medical research, and he encourages patients to seek natural remedies before going onto prescription drugs. It's great knowing that my primary care provider believes in avoiding over-prescription. I feel in safe hands under Dr. Harding.
October 15, 2015Ian Y.Verified patient
I arrived 15 minutes before my appointment , as that is what the office staff tells you. I had to wait till about 20 minutes to get into the exam room.
This does reflect on the Dr but he had another patient in the waiting area who said he was there for his 4:15 appointment.
I know that Providers have time restraints do to Medical Insurance.
I like Dr Harding a lot. He is a good doctor

He came up with what he thought would be a good treatment plan and explained why.
I'm hoping that it does what he thinks it will do.
