Definition of Dr Richy, Real, Caring, Honest, And to the point. I have been to many doctors and dealt with Non-Caring, Rude, Hateful ones, Dr Richy is Awesome, he cares about your health, and Working on a Plan to get you better, Back to a Normal life, if you suffer from Any Chronic illness, What he is not about, Is acting as if he cares and then throwing out prescription, And I have the up most respect for this Dr for that!!!, And I mean up most respect. It's so easy for Doctor's just to write or fax in a prescription and move on to the next patient, too easy, but what's not easy is to take time to listen, figure out a plan and hopefully a Solution, so if your main priority is to go to him for Any controlled substance or Narcotics, save your gas, and please don't waste his time, because it's not going to happen!!!! His time needs to be dedicated to those of us who are serious about finding treatment and setting a plan. He has Great Staff, They get you back very quickly, they get you… referrals quickly, They are an Awesome group of Healthcare providers, I recommend anyone who needs a Primary Care Doctor to go see him

Dr. Richey and his staff are excellent! My husband and I have used them for several years and love the care and service that we receive every visit. I've always been able to schedule an appointment when needed and never had to wait more than 10-15 minutes to be seen. The staff of doctors and nurses are so courteous and caring. They even called the following day to see how I was feeling. They're very professional and have such a nice & clean office. They really make me feel like family. I highly recommend them if you're looking for a doctor!
