I've seen many doctors at Vanderbilt over the years, and I can say without equivocation that Dr. Richardson Is the best I've experienced. And that is being compared to doctors I admire and respect like Drs. Crossley, Johnston, Absi, et al. Speaking with Dr. Richardson gives me complete confidence that my care plan is the best available.

The Dr was very attentive and showed concern

He discussed a test he thought would be helpful and listened to me when I was sceptical. He gave me excellent advice and we reached compromise that is acceptable to both of us.
