“The office staff was very warm and welcoming to me as a new patient. They made me feel very comfortable and it felt like they knew me forever. Dr. Richardson acknowledged me in the hallway and immediately said he would be seeing me shortly. When he came into the examining room, he was very precise in what had to be done. He took good care of me and it made me feel very secure. I would highly recommend Dr. Richarson. Carmen C. ”
