As stated above Dr Rich was very personal, friendly and most of all kind. What was most remarkable is that he spoke directly to me. He was not distracted by a computer. A number of Physicians I see do not even look me in the eye and spend the whole visit reading and typing on a computer. He makes you feel listen to and attempts to meet your needs and questions.

It has often been said that a first impression is a lasting impression and can only be achieved once. Dr. Rich was terrific. He had spent time going over my history and came will prepared to make recommendations for my ongoing care. He listened attentively and asked thoughtful questions. I feel fortunate that he is my heart failure physician.

Took the time to answer my questions only thing I wasn't happy about was trying to book the appointments he told me to I live in Indiana n I'd like to get everything testing done in one visit n it seems like I could not get in in the 4 to 6 weeks to do it so they scheduled me in October which means I'm waiting 5 weeks longer?
