Dr. Ethan spent so much time with me and I felt like I was important to him. He explained things to me on a way I could understand. Impeccable bedside manner! Definitely

Dr Richard is not my normal physican, at this practice. However, I have been seen by him several times and he is wonderful. He takes his time, listens, and discusses his diagnosis. If I did not have a physican I loved, Dr Richard would be my choice.

He seemed like a very young doctor (well, everyone does now) but he listened very well, didn't patronize me or talk down to me, and spent a lot of time with me. I used to go to Dr. Ehly in the same office but he's so busy it's hard to get an appointment with him. I think Dr. Richard will be a very good successor.

Gave me prescriptions for oxycodone for two years and then left town and left me without any help for a new doctor. Now what am I going to do?
