About Dr. Richards

I specialize in Primary Care. I became a healthcare provider because I feel it is important to help take care of my community and help identify, manage, and prevent diseases that are so prevalent in southern Louisiana. My patients can count on me to provide extraordinary care because I’m a great listener and teacher.

My little something extra

I’m a big sports fan especially football and basketball.

Dr. Richards always takes time when I'm in the office to find out what my needs are, to find out how I'm feeling. He always listens to me very carefully and he always shares what he thinks would be the best thing for me. I'm very satisfied with my back. I'm very satisfied.

Dr. Richards was a wonderful doctor. He had all of the issues in a time. He listened to all my medical help things that I had to talk to him. He gave me good results. He went over my records from my previous doctor that I had, and he explained a lot of things to me so I can understand the proper information on the medical tests that he took on me, and he's just such a wonderful, a wonderful, a wonderful primary doctor because he was kind, patient, and he's caring and compassionate.

Dr. Richards is an extremely competent and intelligent physician. He takes the time to sit down and go over any questions you have. And he is always proactive and does a lot of research. I can't say anything more than that. Very, very great doctor.
