How likely are you to recommend Dr. Richey?
Dr. Ritchey saw me in the ER when I was experiencing back and chest pain. He explained everything thoroughly and he found out that I had a Pulmonary Embolism. I could not have asked for a more caring and professional doctor. I’m so glad he was there that Sunday morning.
