BENAVIDES: Do you remember a distinct moment when you
realized you wanted to be a doctor?
RICHARDSON: I was an athlete and an accident prone kid. I was
always in and out of the doctor’s office for everything from a broken wrist to
a fractured toe. I loved visiting my pediatrician’s office because he made me
laugh and feel at ease. I always left feeling better than I arrived. I wanted
to do the same when I grew up.
BENAVIDES: Do you find that you treat a lot of sports
injuries in young people?
RICHARDSON: I get a great deal of head injuries in a variety
of sports which concerns me as a pediatrician. Kids are way too young to be
dealing with brain trauma.
BENAVIDES: How is your job unique from a regular doctor?
