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.

Doctor who cares
He was very courteous and polite upon the first time meeting. He asked the right questions. Gave a thorough examination. Recommended the appropriate plan of action to start the healing recovery process. I felt comfortable and a good outlook from him. I do recommend Dr. Richardson for anyone who has shoulder problems. 4.5 Stars from me

Amazing surgeon for ACL reconstruction
Dr. Richarson did my ACL reconstruction and I feel great. He's an amazing surgeon and connects with his patients. Asking my goals post-reconstruction and offering advice on how to swiftly get back to my job and physical activity. If I ever tear my ACL again, which hopefully I don't, I will be going back to him.

Great Experience / Great Results
Dr. Richardson was recommended by a friend who had also had shoulder replacement surgery. I am honestly so happy that I took that recommendation! I had a total reverse replacement, I experienced very little pain and couldn’t have asked for better results. Dr. Richardson was easy to talk to, explained things very well and is very professional. He is all business and he knows what he is doing. Office staff is great and appointments are easy to make. I didn’t have to wait months for an appointment, got in the very next week after I called. I highly recommend Dr. Richardson!

Professional and offered me option to try therapy.
Dr Richardson treated me with patience and respect and listened to my concerns. He offered me the option of trying therapy first to help with the pain rather then having surgery. I had previously seen another doctor who automatically assumed that I was there for pain medication which was the furthest thing from my intentions. I was able to get by with therapy and warmer weather throughout most of the year until winter arrived. I returned to Dr Richardson's office in early Feb and he scheduled my surgery within four weeks. I had a total reverse shoulder replacement on March 1st and I have been amazed at how well everything has gone since then. I am still going for therapy and looking forward to a great summer. Thank you Dr Richardson!!

Highly
My meniscus surgery was 12 years ago. I was very happy with my experience including the out patient surgery. Now 12 years later, it's torn again which I'm told can happen, in addition to arthritis in both knees. Last year they took an MRI and told me my options. I am not ready for total knee replacement. A year ago I had a cortisone shot followed up by a series of gel shots. It definitely helped. Fast forward to now and I found a new passion (Pickleball), and my knees are screaming. Once again, I went in and Jordon, the Physician Assistant who works with Dr. Richardson, took fluid off my bad knee (immediate relief), and did a cortisone injection as well as a gel shot a week later. My knee feels great for now. I may be looking at either another meniscus repair or total knee replacement down the road, but I absolutely trust Dr. Richardson and Jordon to advise me what I need to do in order to continue having good quality of life. I highly recommend both of them!
