My daughter was with me and she felt the same way about my appointment

Feb 26, 2026
After my visit with the Doctor, I left feeling being rushed. This is the first time I've felt this way and really am very disappointed with this doctor. I left there feeling " why did I come here today". He didn't look at my incision after I had surgery 7 weeks ago or ask how I was feeling. I mentioned to him about my breathing and wheezing and he said to check with my kidney doctor. Duh!!! So needless to say I'm not satisfied with Dr. Rassaque I have more to say but not enough space here!

Feb 26, 2026
He is very knowledgeable and cares about his patients.

I like Richelle Fields very much. She is always smiling, friendly, personable and very knowledgeable.

Feb 24, 2026
I indicated in my last comments that Richelle M Fields is a very good communicator and she truly listens. We make decisions with my input. She has a lovely way about her and I am confident in her care. She always indicates that I should reach out to her in the patient portal, this means our contact and her care go beyond the appointment Very reassuring

Dr. Kichura is the greatest as a doctor and a person. I feel very confident in him with my care and any concerns, questions I may have. He is also caring, compassionate and listens and always takes time to answer questions and explains my health, my test results, medications.

Easy to talk with about my condition

Feb 23, 2026
Weather Im seeing Dr. Kichura, the NP or medical assistant. I expect everyone to be on the same page and communicate the same thing. The medical assistant conveyed Dr. Kichura said the labs are good. My chart said 2 labs are abnormal. I dont expect the abnormal labs to be dismissed as good. Those same two labs have come back abnormal for multiple years. The doctors notes on my chart responds to questions that was not asked of me. Dr. Kichura said the notes are a template. He said time doesn't allow him to ask all the questions. So if time doesn't allow then dont note the chart as if he asked all the questions. Never tell a patient they have 4 to 5 years to live and get your affairs in order. If he doesn't want to be held accountable for what he said 5 years ago. Patients are more than what the 'numbers' on labs and ECHO state. I have had 4 family members to die from congestive heart failure. I take my Healthcare very seriously. He is personal able and pleasant.
