Dr. Richardson has been my doctor going on 10 years now. He is an excellent communicator....prompt...he listens...and he keeps it real. Wouldn't change a thing about him as a doctor or human being. I feel very lucky to be one of his patients. I don't know what I would do when he decides to retire!

My physician (Dr.Tommie Richardson) is exceptionally knowledgeable, caring, and he explains things clearly. Lifestance, as a company, is quite professional and helpful. I would recommend this office to a good friend or close relative without hesitation.

Dr. Richardson is a straight BOSS! I've been going to him for near a decade and even though he'd say I did all the hard stuff, he seriously (helped😁) save my life!!! Can't say enough good things about the guy.
