Dr. Richard Herold, MD

Very kind thoughtful and thorough. Highly recommended. Sincerely, Richard Weber

I took my mother's husband in to see Richard Herold today. He was very rude and insulting and basically ignored me. I was trying to help my mother's husband as he has a cognitive impairment and doesn't always know the words to use to explain things. This "doctor" was probably the worst I've ever experienced. He dismissed my mother's husband's concerns outright. I would not recommend this "doctor" to anyone, ever. We will definitely not be going back.

This man is totally incompetent! I have seen this Doctor for over 10 years with one health concern. I have a Thyroid problem and need continual, daily Thyroid meds to keep it under control. He has authorized that daily Thyroid O.1 mg medication for many years, based on routine Blood exam testing. Without explanation, he recently denied refill of my prescription request! No explanation or reason given when requested, other than saying, loudly and clearly, “You don’t need it any more”! I anticipated a Blood test, but he refused a Blood draw, and when asked why, he would not answer. I then said, “I have been told by you and other medical Doctors that the Thyroid medication is Life long, commitment, and should NEVER be stopped” ! His response…”Things Change” ! I requested information about the “change” so I could determine for myself if I should “stop”, but instead of answering he walked out of the room……..never to be seen again, at lease by me! My Advice? Check other Dr’S

A highly opinionated, disagreeable doctor. He does not believe it the validity of PSA testing and does not provide any other prostate screening or health procedures. His opinions were many and some highly questionable. A very poor choice as a primary care physician.

I went to Dr. Herold for years before he moved to Salt Lake City. I would recommend him to anyone. I think that people sometimes mistake honesty for rudeness, because it’s not what they want to hear. I am a very senior person and don’t always like what I hear but I trust Doctor Herold completely. I have now moved to Salt Lake City and plan to go back to Dr Herold .

Terrible Doctor, insulting and rude. Acted disinterested. I left his office feeling bad about myself. Nasty Ill mannered man. Needs more education on modern medicine.

Does not seem very knowledgeable about senior issues. Rude and insulting. Not a Doctor I would trust!

Now most people really don't like to go to see a doctor, but to see Dr. Herold and Mel is like visiting with friends. I trust him completely and I won't say Mel's real name.

My first visit with Dr. Herold was positive. He was very professional and cordial. He was thorough reviewing my past history and attending to current health concerns. Based on this first visit I would recommend him and the Senior Center at St. Marks to anyone needing a primary care physician.

Dr. Herold is an excellent physician. He cares about providing the best care to the patient and does an excellent job in doing so. His MA, Mel also is very attentive and does a great job in her role.

He has been my doctor for 30 years. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Herold is my only choice for my doctor. He is friendly and professional. His staff is pleasant and enjoyable. I feel they have my health and wellness on every visit. He has a great sense of humor and I can joke around with him and he jokes right back.

Dr. Harold is very personable and gets straight to the point with his explanations. I would recommend Dr. Herold. Mel is someone that make you feel at ease, I'm impressed with her perfessionalism. Dennis Mullen

He was rude to my mother. He said that she was failing the test (MMSE) miserably. She felt so bad about herself afterward. I was so disappointed. I had high hopes after finally finding a geriatric physician for my mom. He didn't offer any preventive medication or vaccines. Didn't tell us what to watch out for. Didn't give any insight into her medical condition(s).

Best damn internist in the US. Got me out of trouble a number of times. Direct to the point and very knowledgable

Dr Herold is very knowledgeable as well as professional. He takes the time to answer any questions and has a good sense of humor. His Medical Assistant, Mel, has very good customer service skills and puts you at ease. I have recommended Dr. Herald and will continue to do so.

Dr Harold was very attentive, listened well and seems to be concerned about my issues. His assistant Mel was awesome; a great asset to his practice. The two are a class act in the medical profession. Looking forward to my next visit. And I would deffinately recommend them to anyone looking for a attentive medical team. Anyone is welcome to contact me for more personal recommendations.

I had my first visit with Dr. Herold today. Excellent doctor! He asked a lot of questions, gave me some great advice and opinions, and made me feel valued as a new patient. My former doctor went into corporate practice, so I needed a new family physician. Dr. Herold was the perfect choice.

I found Dr. Herold to be very friendly and easy to talk to about my health concerns. He is obviously very well educated and up to date on various treatments and the effectiveness of drugs available today. He was quick to provide me his opinion and recommendations concerning treatment of my medical concerns from a senior's point of view. I found his medical assistant Mel to be very friendly and she did a great job drawing my blood without any discomfort. I'd recommend him to a friend.

Mom is hard to get out to a doctor for a check-up and I anticipated the usual negative comments after her visit, but she was very impressed with him and is looking forward to having him as her primary care physician. It doesn't sound very exciting, but I'm thrilled she believes he has her best interests at heart. He was engaged and earnest, but has a very pleasant personality. I'm very happy she actually feels up-beat about a physician.
