Patient Reviews
Dec 11, 2023
I have been seeing various psychiatrist s to manage my panic disorder for the past 20 years. Dr Richardson is the only one who actually tried to help me mange my panic attacks. Most of the doctors I seen have only asked how I am doing with my medication and that was it. Nothing to try to help me manage my anxiety. I highly recommend. The only reason I stopped seeing him is because I changed insurance carriers.
