Dr. Richardson has a great bedside manner. She is knowledgeable and personable. She spends the time with you rather than feeling as though she has to get you out of the room as soon as possible. I would recommend anyone to see Dr. Richardson!

My visit with Dr. Richardson was a great experience I found her to be warm, pleasant, cordial, encouraging and Well Prepared. She was very pleasant at getting to the business at hand. She encouraged me to do what is necessary such as, eating healthy and exercising and taking my medication on time and taking my Blood Pressure daily. When our visit ended, I left the room feeling valued, no rush!
