        I think it might be the best dr visit I have had all year. He explained everything to me, I left with no questions unanswered. Felt really good about the plan discussed and like he really cared about helping me feel better! Highly recommend Dr. Richards.

        Dr. Richards was very detailed and provided us with the exact amount of information needed when preparing for surgery. He was not rushed and he listened. His bedside manner was excellent. We traveled across the country to see him and we left knowing that it was the right decision.

        Dr. Richards has been my GI surgeon for 8 years. He is knowledgeable, professional-but with a sense of humor that puts me at ease. Being under his care he has seen me through some of the worst medical situations of my life, compassionately helping me navigate choices, and outcomes. I am grateful every day that Dr. Richards is part of my team helping me live the best life possible within the boundaries of my disease.

        Dr. Nathan Richards well exceeded my expectations and I truly can't say enough great things about him & his staff. He explained everything to me very thoroughly, even going well above and beyond that! I was more than confident leaving this appointment and even looking forward to the procedure!
