Dr. Richardson has performed twice in removing breast cancer from me. She is 100% great! If she were not my MD and a complete professional, we would be good personal friends. She has always taken the best care of me and her staff are optimistic, happy and amazingly knowledgeable too. If everyone were not absolutely great I would naver have had the courage to fight this cancer(s) on my own.

I have so much confidence in Dr. Richardson and her staff. I have had to have 2 mastectomies since 2021 by Dr. Richardson, and I recovered without any glitches. The latest mastectomy was on {date removed}. I would highly recommend Dr. Richardson to any lady who has been diagnosed with cancer.

I am beyond pleased to have Dr Richardson and team treat my bilateral breast cancer. The results are seamless. I am so physically and emotional surprised at how the resulting scars are no more visible than a paper cut. Excellent surgical skills.

Although I feel like she is competent, her medical record entries are horrific. Her nurse tends to push mastectomies, when there not necessary. I would not choose her again
