Richard is very gentle with how he explains the health problems associated with weight gain. I feel very blessed to have him as my care provider and I know that he has my best interest at heart. As always thank you Richard.

Only feedback that I have is for the nurse staff for the doctor's office. The nurse staff is helpful, is attentive. I appreciate them. Only thing when it comes dealing with paperwork that needs to be provided to an employer or to even the state to help things a little bit more smoothly, it would be nice than rather being told to come pick up your documents. They could be proactive and they could actually assist by returning a fax that's being requested on the customer's behalf. Not sure if that's something they can do, but I think that would be better customer service tip than always having to simply say, you need to come and pick it up and take care of it yourself.

I forgot some information that the Dr gave me. He took the time to personally call me and give me the information over the phone. I liked the fact that the Dr called and that he didn't have one of his nurses call. Him calling just seemed more personal and that he really cared
