Richard excellent health care provider

I have been seeing Richard Thousand for five years and he has always shown care and concern for my health. During this visit I had questions about what treatment there was if my cancer should reoccur for a third time. He explained in detail and very clearly the new treatments that have been developed in the last five years. My annual visits with him will be missed because he has now turned my back to PCP for annual PSA's.The Cleveland Clinic is very fortunate to have Richard Thousand on their staff.

I absolutely loved the way he handled my visit. I was concerned with the test results(even though they were good results). The NP went in detail explaining my diagnosis and answering EVERY question my wife and I had. I left that.appointment at ease and with knowledge to be able to explain to my children where I go from here with cancer treatment and percentage of reoccurance. I've never met this NP before but for me, he was a God send. I would recommend him to every person with my diagnosis. He is able to take the medical jargon and explain in detail so I would understand. He is truly gifted!
