Dr. Richard Green is formally retired as of July 2016. However he remains affiliated with the practice that he created and poured his heart and soul into, and continues to contribute to the operation of the San Diego Podiatry Group in an "Emeritus"-type role. He wishes to extend his sincere gratitude to all the patients who placed their confidence and trust in him over the years.
About Me:
"As a 'seasoned practitioner', I have come to realize what I enjoy most about Podiatric Medicine and Surgery is working with and helping my patients. Many times we are able to relieve patients' pain at the first or second visit, but even if surgery is required, in the long term we are able to help most people. This allows us to develop a friendly yet professional relationship which is positive for both the doctor and the patient."
