Be prepared to wait up to 2 hours past your appointment time to see the doctor. Also be prepared to spend countless hours getting tests that are not really necessary. The office staff, particularly the staff that handles prescriptions is incompetent, at best, and just doesn't care, at worst. I recently called in excess of 5 times to correct a prescription (this is not the first incorrectly called in prescription either) and it's still not resolved. At least 50% of the time, they don't even answer the phone when they're suppo... read more
Yes, I waited awhile for the doctor to come in the room with me but once he came in he spent a really long time withe going over all aspects of my medical history. I feel like he really took time to get to know me and my issues instead of rushing me in and out. I'd rather wait for good care than to be in and out of the office somewhere else.
His office called me and double check that my insurance was covered which is Blue Shield PPO and since I work for Blue Shield I checked to make sure that they covered him. They do not under any circumstances his contract was terminated for cause
Dr. Richardson is the worst doctor I have ever encountered. Every visit is 45 - 60 minutes late waiting for him. He is rude. He orders excessive testing, even the quest nurses call his blood testing the Richardson tests. He prescribes unwarranted medications and doesn't answer patients' questions. His staff is unresponsive. We have waited four months to receive our medical records - still don't have them. When we finally got a copy from another source, he lied on his records.
His staff is difficult to communicate with by phone. One hour wait for him to arrive in the office to see me. What was a minor side effect turned into a major disease $&$$$$ in the initial office visit. Excessive testing of every kind requested. He is not professional. He is over-bearing and jumps to negative conclusions about health issues. He uses fear and intimidation to influence to get patients to be in his care.
I have been seeing Dr Richardson since he began his practice. He immediately diagnosed myasthenia gravis as my mystery illness. He is very thorough and will do a myriad of blood tests and other things to find every possible reason for your problem. I trust him completely. Yes, his office wait times are long. I try to schedule early appointments.
Doctor Richardson is a blessing to the medical profession. He is brilliant and thorough. I drive from Santa Barbara to see him when the doctor in Santa Barbara didn’t listen to me about my gallbladder, he sent me to a specialist, and it ended up the nerves were dead in my gallbladder he saved my life from having gangrene. I’m sure of it! He identified there was something wrong with my neck and it ended up. I had 50% bone spurs, and had to have surgery for the removal and my life is so much better for Matt as well. He is a ma... read more
staff person responsible for sending in prescriptions needs to be fired .. she NEVER does her job and I mean NEVER .. takes multiple calls and at times extra visits and the other staff to check her desk where it is found that a prescription had laid there for more than 10 days. Making a patient pay for prescriptions when already paying for the office visit is unheard of in the industry and even when paying for the prescriptions the job was NOT done
Dr. Richardson is a wonderful dr but his staff needs to work on doing a better job like him. They are not efficient at all it takes a long time to get a referral even if you call them several times. To get blood word, medications, equipment you name it, it will take several months to get it done
