I began seeing Dr. Damien Richardson after rupturing my Achilles tendon last year. He offered an extremely balanced assessment of my options — to have surgery or proceed with non-operative recovery — and answered the many questions I had with patience and understanding. He never pushed me towards having surgery and emphasized that I should proceed with the treatment I was most comfortable with. 6 months later on his non-operative treatment plan I am recovering very well! Couldn’t be happier with my experience.

Dr. Richardson did an incredible job on the surgical repair of my bimalleolar break. After my break, he could fit me in for surgery right away even though I wasn’t a previous patient for him, and he was incredibly efficient but thorough in treating me and making sure I understood all the components of surgery and recovery. The most amazing thing is how good of a job he did— my recovery was even a bit ahead of schedule. His team is also wonderful, and were available to help over the phone with answering my questions post surgery and helping me to get a new splint when I was having issues. Thanks Dr. Richardson!

My experience with Dr. Richardson was top tier. I tore my Achilles October. thinking it was just a bad "sprain" I continued to "walk"/ hobble on it for 6 weeks before seeing Dr. Richardson. On the 7th week, I saw him and by the following week I was in surgery. He walked me thru the procedure, he made sure I understood and he was honest with me the entire time. The surgery went off with out any complications. He did excellent work. AND IM NOT JUST SAYING THAT. 6 months post surgery, i am able to do a "single leg calf raise" supporting my entire body. I am able to do far more athletic movements as well. Dr. Richardson is top notch. His program works and he truly cares about his patients and loves what he does.

When he told me what needed to be done, he was clear, friendly, concise, and extremely patient when I asked all of my questions. The surgery itself was scheduled extremely quickly and was done perfectly. He followed up post-op and was available for any questions I had, which I've never experienced before and greatly appreciated. He gave me a solution that lets me play my sport again within the next year, which is pretty incredible. I would definitely recommend!
