Jun 08, 2019
Dr Richards is excellent. However scheduling is the biggest flaw. I’ve left numerous voicemails for an appointment and scheduled online to only be canceled on. When I immediately call back no one answers or returns my call. This has gone on for months. They have no problem emailing and texting me in regards to a balance though. This is not dr Richards fault at all, it’s just a shame her front desk staff lacks the ability to do their job

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
