    Dr. Rischard is one of the best Drs. I have ever had. He didn't look at me as an 8l year old woman and think, Why waste my time? He took the time to look at my symptoms and problems, he worked with me at every visit to explain any procedure we were going to try. My condition has improved and continues to improve, I am able to do so many more things now, than I did before. Thank you Dr. Rischard
