Patient Reviews
Apr 20, 2021
Dr. Richard Long is one of the best urologists I've ever encountered, and I have gone through several over the past few years. I was experiencing increasing pain and urgency that was not properly diagnosed nor treated until I saw Dr. Long through a friend's referral. He was laser-focused on my descriptions and personal account of my pain. It was clear to me from the first appointment that he was intent upon finding the cause of my issues. Dr. Long ordered a complete lab and scheduled a biopsy of my bladder. He found cancer. I am a highly unlikely candidate for bladder cancer, which may be the reason that no other urologist investigated for cancer. He had me treated with immunotherapy, which has fewer side effects, rather than chemo. I am cancer-free and very grateful for his comprehensive care. I highly recommend Dr. Richard Long!
