Dr. Richardson is excellent, creative and compassionate. We have been seeing him for years and have been so grateful for his persistence in helping us improve our son's eye sight and vision. He has a very nice manner and a lot of patience for Andrew. I've recommended Dr. Richardson to two friends whose children needed the care of an ophthalmologist. He's the best!

Unfortunately this Drs office was some distance away from my home. This was the closest Pediatric Ophthalmologist for us to see. While the Provider was excellent and the establishment, an option to have a Dr closer to the Soutern Maryland region is much needed.
