“Dr. Murphy and his staff always made me feel like part of their family. When he told me that I had to have surgery; I started crying and he hugged me and reassured me that everything was going to be okay. Whenever I see him in the hospital he always gives me a hug and asks how I am doing. He is very knowledgeable and personable, not to mention competent!”

“Within the last two years I've had back and neck surgery by Dr. Richard Murphy. Both surgeries went very well. He called to check on me before my first surgery, because I told his PA that I was scared to be put to sleep. Dr.Murphy called and assured me that everything was going to be okay. When I go to my appointments, he makes me feel at ease. He talks and explains things. He's awesome. He's a blessing to me.”

“The last week of September 2017 I fell and began experiencing numbness and balance issues that progressively became worse. The week before Christmas I met with Dr. Murphy. He immediately diagnosed my problem, and then ordered an MRI which confirmed his diagnosis. My spinal cord was almost severed. Two days after Christmas he performed surgery and I can now walk again.”
