Richard K. Sharp, MD | Family Medicine

Best doctor I've ever been to. My whole family goes to him. He saved my sons life by diagnosing him with type 1 diabetes (when another pediatrician that I had went to specifically to check for type 1 told me he wouldn't check him because if he had diabetes he would look sick.) Dr sharp has always taken my concerns seriously, he is very knowledgeable, and he takes time with his patients to explain and figure things out. Very knowledgeable, caring, and kind.

I called Dr. Sharp's office to ask if he was accepting new patients after being referred by a friend and was pleased to be accepted as a new patient. I arrived to his office exactly at the time of my appointment. I waited for 30 min. before being taken to an exam room and another 10-15 min. before I was seen. To my surprise, a nurse practitioner student entered without Dr. Sharp. She was polite and told me she was his student and would be seeing me for my appointment. I told her I was happy to be seen by her but I was confused because I thought I would be meeting with Dr. Sharp. He was the doctor to whom I was referred and with whom I scheduled an appointment. She replied that he may "pop in" after a few min. The nurse practitioner listened as I described issues with anxiety/depression a

I received a voicemail today from this office saying they haven’t seen me since my first and ONLY appointment last year. It reminded me that I never gave them a review. I came in last year because I was having a lot health & heart issues. I almost walked out after reading this sign but I decided to give the doctor the benefit of the doubt. I should have just walked out because it was a total waste of my time. I felt so rushed & talked over. I left feeling so frustrated but I luckily found a better doctor that actually took the time to talk to me and answer more than 3 questions. Don’t waste your time here. They obviously don’t want you to waste theirs.

Firstly, Dr. Sharps receptionist is a doll. When she calls you and wishes you a great day she really means it and you can tell. Dr. Sharp is such a rare find in the doctor industry! Forget the hustle and bustle rushing you in and out at a normal office while you still have remaining questions. Dr. Sharp sat down with me and explained my labs, Drew me pictures to represent them, dumbed it down, talked to me like I was a friend until I understood them. I will appreciate that forever. He also listened to my concerns and addressed them, and made a plan to help me with them. I'm so glad I found Dr. Sharp and his office.

I've known Dr Sharp for nearly 20 years. He's still the best diagnostics doctor I've ever been to. That's saying something, too. I'm "blessed" with lousy genes so have had 19 (27 total as of 2024) surgeries over the years, with more to come if I live long enough, so have been to a lot of doctors. I have a couple specialists Dr Sharp has referred me to who are also good. I trust Dr Sharp and recommend him to honest people who aren't looking for a doctor as a safe space, but actually want the truth. I do have to say, however, that the support staff in Dr Sharp's office just don't seem to know how to return calls and how important that is. How many clients does that list? I'd be gone if not for the doctor's great level of caring and knowledge. I like them all, too, with 2 notable exceptions
