Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I highly recommend Dr. Richards.
Dr. Richards has been providing routine gynecological care to me for many years. She is unfailingly professional and compassionate.

Dr. Christine Richards was my first OB and delivered my first baby via emergency Csection. My experience was very terrifying but Dr. Richards was calm and comforting and not at all part of my problem. I was happy and surprised to see her assisting with my Csection of my 2nd child through a different practice, and I followed her to her new practice. She performed a D&C for a spontaneous abortion and delivered my next 3 via Csection. She has always been extremely kind and solicitous. She takes time to answer my questions and review my history at every appointment. I am always happy to see HER even in my medical moments when I would rather be anywhere else!

She rushed the appointment, super eager to give me a pelvic exam and then just left. I told her I was uncomfortable during exams and she just completely disregarded that and touched me without letting me know. “You’ll feel my hand on your thigh” and then stuck her finger inside me. Do NOT go to her

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND HER. She caused me to not benefit from my professional degree I got prior to her D and C,laparoscopy. She cut the small bowel,so I woke up in ICU,expected to go home an hour later. Lost more than half blood,she had general surgeon cut me open,8 inches vertical,tremendous pain while parking,never offered plastic surgery garment,would have hurt lot less. Arrogant,never apologized. I'm still in pain today and not working because tried fix her mistake,didnt go well either.
