"Dr. Rich is a competent, compassionate professional who excels at treating individuals with FASD. Her approach eliminates the “guesswork” we encountered with other, well-meaning medical providers and therapists who nonetheless lacked her expertise. She encourages my kids to live meaningfully and with purpose and joy, and her treatment plans support that. I trust her to give my teens the care and direction they need as they move towards adulthood. My kids are in such better places since joining Dr. Rich’s practice, and that has positively impacted our whole family."

"Dr. Susan Rich is amazing! She is a gem! She helped my child. I recommend her from the bottom of my heart! She is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, flexible, full of compassion and understanding. She cares deeply about her patients and takes time to explain and educate the parents too. My daughter, who has complex health issues, is finding immense comfort under her care. After many years of going from one specialist to another, getting lost in the disconnected medical care system, we searched for a doctor who can see the big picture and put it all together. Then, we met Dr. Rich in 2019and what a difference she made! She was able to diagnose our daughter’s condition, find effective medications, advise on school-related matters, and help plan her transition to adulthood. Her office is a warm, inviting place located in a tranquil neighborhood. When you step out of the office, there is a farm with goats, pigs, and chickens. My daughter looks forward to seeing Dr. Rich regularly and finds it very relaxing to visit the farm and practice mindfulness."

"Dr. Rich is the kindest and most understanding psychiatrist that we have ever worked with. Daughter was having a hard time in middle school and Dr. Rich helped us get her into a smaller school that was perfect for her. We stopped seeing her for awhile ... only to find out that other doctors did not truly understand daughter's unique needs so we were so happy to be connected back with her again last fall. Her compassion for her patients is unmatched and she treats the whole person - not just prescribing meds. Highly recommend Dr. Rich for anyone who has a child that does not have textbook issues - she will figure it out and work side by side with you."

"My son has been treated by different physicians in Georgetown University Hospital. They recommended Dr Susan Rich for my son’s follow up and she has provided exceptional care during the last four years. We are very satisfied with the high quality of her care, ethics and professionalism. Her work has motivated us to write this review to strongly recommend her to any other patients. She is empathetic and very willing to spend time educating her patients and family about the diagnosis and treatment. As a mother and Pediatrician, I am looking for the best Physician with knowledge and experience to treat my son, and I found she exceeded all my expectations. I hope these words help parents or patients who are looking for a highly qualified psychiatrist in this area. I cannot find enough words to express my gratitude and appreciation for her work with my son."

"I have two adopted children who have worked with Dr Rich. She is an excellent therapist and psychiatrist. She is very thoughtful and carefully evaluated them for medication needs. She does not over medicate and. really gets to know each individual. One of my sons was a young adult when she worked with him. The other son was around 10 when she began working with him and she’s still his psychiatrist today. She has a small farm and includes nature and farm animals in her therapeutic work. In addition she provides safe and and supervised experiences to teens and young adults on her farm to learn some farming skills and build their confidence. I highly recommend Dr Rich in her unique skill set, her expertise in working with FASD and her compassionate work with children, teens, young adults and their families."
