What people have to say about this practice
“Dr. Rich is a good surgeon with compassion for his patients. Thanks to him and his team I am feeling so much better.” – Cherrie May 2013
“I am always leery about picking doctors. I have found more bad, noncaring doctors then the other. I loved Dr. Rich he was very caring and wanted to make sure I understood everything that was going on. His follow up visit he was very nice to me and made me feel like he genuinely cared about me!” –April Jan 2011
