Dr Richards has been my PC physician for close to 20 years. He always takes time & LISTENS which is so important.
He's so knowledgeable & caring.
I hope he doesn't retire anytime soon.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Sep 20, 2021Previous reviewDr Richards has been my primary physician for almost 20 yrs now. He is quite knowledgeable and takes the time to explain in plain English all questions one might have for him. You are made to feel that he really cares about you & has a passion for his profession. His office staff are quite pleasant.
The young lady who draws my blood is the absolute best as making it as painless as possible and has the best attitude. I'm glad they're also an urgent care facility as I have to utilize that a few times & the ones on call are also very professional & caring. I have always had a good experience although sometimes there is a bit of a wait. - E B.South Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA01Apr 11, 2024
My experience is always delightful. For over 20yrs, Dr. Richards has always been very detailed and cares for my overall health. He checks in to see how I'm doing day or night. It's a one stop shop with urgent care. The staff is great and very easy to work with. I highly recommend Dr. Richards. I'm not going anywhere. I'm in good hands.

At 71 I've been to many doctors in my life and they vary greatly, Dr. Richards is the best I've ever been to , he's relatable , knowledgeable, honest, personal , funny and extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of his profession. He speaks in terms I can understand and makes me comfortable every visit , office staff is great especially the nurse who finds my unfindable vein every time for bloodwork.

I just celebrate this Dr from day 1 that I met him. Nobody recommend him to me. I just went through the Doctors on the lists where I needed to pick one from and I just picked him up randomly, trust me, I did not regret having him as my PCP for almost 5 years now. He
Knows what he's doing, take interest in your personal welfare and he just relate with you as a friend and family. He's an amazing doctor. I recommend him to you.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Aug 18, 2022Previous reviewDr James M Richards is very thorough in examining his patients, loving and very caring. He's patient with every patient. He's very professional, dutiful and does not ignore any of your complaints health wise. There is never any dull moment with Dr Richards. I will surely recommend him to any one. Good man.
