We did not see the Dr today as my daughter was getting set up for home EEG monitoring. We waited 40min from the original txt saying they were ready for us. There were two techs in the room and one seemed as she was learning but shShow moree was the one placing and hooking up everything. This EEG is over several days and hope everything was hooked up as it should be as she didn't appear confident and I witnessed her switching out cables many times. I was also not given a fully charged battery and a "dead" battery to take come to charge so that I would have an extra when the original died at some point during our testing. This battery has been plugged in all day to charge and isn't charging. I called the office and left a message and have not received a call back. I hope the original battery lasts
We are extremely thankful for Dr Richards explaining a situation that we did not understand. We went to him for a second opinion due to dealing with a horrible ped neurologist in Houston, TX. He help us know that whatever the caseShow more is he will get to the bottom of it. He is also working with us on scheduling the MRI in Houston where we live and also offer to do a televisit if need to go over results. We are thankful to have found him and got in as soon as we did. I would also like to thank the appointment coordinator for letting us know to call everyday to see if anyone cancels. So that we could get in sooner than Nov. I’m which we did. So thankful!

Appointments with Dr Richards are always a pleasure. The front desk staff are helpful and knowledgeable, and Dr. Richards himself is professional, listens to our concerns, and is a wonderful doctor. We have been going to him for years and never have any complaints.
Staff & Dr. Richards are all awesome & super friendly!
Absolutely incredible!!! We have seen Dr Richards for 8 years and he has been a true blessing for our family!
Really nice Dr. He explained everything well to my child and helped made her feel more comfortable. 5/5 stars for him. The support staff could be better, none of them smiled at us before the doctor, felt very uncomfortable, they barely made eye contact. 2/5 for them. the waiting room floor looked like it had not been mopped in a super long time. And the cubes that look like dice for kids to sit on were gross/dirty looking and falling apart. Waiting room was just dreary overall and made me feel like I was in some really low end, hole in the wall clinic. 2/5 stars for it.
Dr Richards is very nice and patient., he made my daughter feel comfortable and at ease with how she's feeling.
Sweet, caring, listens to his patient and willing to help. Thank you Dr. Richard’s.

Love it.. Dr.Richards was very nice an explained everything. No question of ours was left unanswered.
Dr Richards was amazing with our son. Very good bedside manner and put us all at ease
Very professional
We appreciate ur help so much. To be even better please consider providing your young patients with more supportive words, encouragement, empathy, compassion, and validation for emotions and symptoms as well. A few encouraging words go a very very long way with these kids. Thank u for listening. We know u care deep down. Saying,”hang in there, u can get through this” is priceless.
They are well taken care of good medicine good doctor
Waited too long.
I love how Dr richards listens to concerns I have about my child
We only had to wait a short time to see someone, and she was very knowledgeable.
Very attentive and very fast everyone is great
Even though it was a Remote consultation I feel like Amy asked all the right questions and didn’t jump to any conclusions. She was present with concerns and had a potential solution for everything. Look forward to working with her in the future.
I think my son actually feels ok talking to Dr.Richards, not always the case with others.
Friendly!
Today was our first appointment with Dr. Richard's. My daughter was very receptive and trusting with his knowledge and felt very comfortable.
