    Dr. Richard was very kind and compassionate and took the time to listen and made me feel heard and seen. I was most impressed by the surgery coordinator that I was able to meet with after meeting with Dr. Richards. She was wonderful. Unfortunately, I cannot think of her name at the moment, but she was just absolutely wonderful. Great personality, great depth of manner, true to me with the utmost respect and has been extremely helpful in following up to get everything needed for my upcoming surgery. So, A plus all around. Great job, Longstreet Clinic.
