Dr. Sindhu Richards was wonderful!! I think she spent around an hour talking with me, helping and explaining to me when she didn't have to but I am glad she did and I am very glad I got the chance to meet such an amazing Dr and lady. She is very intelligent and she explains things very well and not one time did I feel like she was thinking that I was making all of these symptoms up like all the other Drs I have been to but her and Dr.Morrill. She took the time to read everything I wrote down and then she wanted me to tell her from my own words. I think she is one of the best Drs I have been to, she is kind and respectful and immediately I felt comfortable with her

dr richards was really nice she listened to me about my 20+ history of epilepsy and anwsered my questions about what i thought might be a possible trigger where other neurologists were quick to dismiss. she was also quick to get an EEG which i was grateful for as i have not had one in at least a decade.

I don't know what was the reason for her for being late and just help me for 15 minutes while waited for 45 minutes.
