Dr. Richardson was amazing with my son! We saw him for a broken wrist. The whole office staff there was wonderful and made him feel right at home
Great doctor, very knowledgeable. I would recommend him in a heartbeat.
Dr. Richardson is very knowledgeable in his work and helping with our situation. However, he does not have a great doctor to patient relationship. His personality is not evident, which can be off putting. We saw him on two different occasions to see if anything changed, but it was the same both times.
Dr Richardson is very professional and I trust him 100% to handle my hand issues. Each apt is better than expected. And he has a great sense of humor which helps me with my anxiety. Recommend him highly! We have told others to call him with hand issues.
Lee is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend him.
Somewhat arrogant and dismissive
Honored my appointment even though I arrived late.
Wonderful doctor
He was friendly and explained the issue in a way we understood and could follow .
Dr.Richardson fixed my husbands thumb , no problems! I just fractured my wrist and the ER said find a dr to take you in. 5-10 days. Dr Richardson fit me into his busy schedule the next day! So thankful we have him here in Prescott. Good listener, never felt rushed.
