My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
I affiliated with MDVP in 2012, opening my family medicine practice in a conveniently located medical office building here in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Today, I am able to offer medical care for my patients like they are members of my family. I take the time necessary to help patients understand their illnesses and provide an ongoing plan of care. My physician-patient relationships are based on a foundation of open communication, individual respect and trust.
The focus of my primary care practice at Choice Medical Care, is to provide individualized care and, if possible, maintain or improve my patients' health. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. The MDVIP model allows me the flexibility to continue to interact and personalize medical therapies for each patient in a unique and innovative manner. I enjoy treating both families and individuals, offering a specialty in geriatric care.
My hospital affiliates include Baton Rouge General Medical Center, Our Lady of the Lake Medical Center and Woman's Hospital, serving patients from East Baton Rouge Parish and beyond.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Richarme

for Susan Richarme, MD
I have been a patient of Dr. Richarme since 1996. When I was informed about VIP choice med. I was naturally very upset and confused about what to do. I decided not to join because at the time though I found her one of the most caring, kind, and tenacious physicians I have had the pleasure of meeting and working with I thought it was a little expensive for 1-2 visits a year. I am an RN with… See more

I have known Susan since our middle school days at Ursuline Academy in New Orleans. We were taught to live courtesy, loyalty and courage. Our school motto is serviam - I will serve. Susan runs her office and practice with all of this combined. She is a fantastic friend and doctor. Macs Forever!

Dr. Susan Richarme is my TOP DOCTOR! She has cared for me since my mid-forties. I'm soon to be 72. She was the first Dr. to diagnose me with RA. And, of course, through the years I've had numerous other conditions she's treated me for and referred me to specialists. She studies a lot. I've had three major back surgeries, breast cancer, knee surgery to name a few. My… See more

There aren't enough words to say how very much I think of Dr. Richarme. Having known her for over 25 years before she decided to join MDVIP, there was never any hesitation I would be following her. Dr. Richarme is not only an excellent doctor but a friend. She's very professional and compassionate but yet it's like being with family. She has surrounded herself with the most… See more

Dr. Susan Richarme has always been there during the important times in my life when I needed medical care and advice. At times she was the only doctor I could count on. My overall quality of life would be less today without her.

She has always been so warm and friendly. She makes me feel like I am her only patient. I like it that I can contact her at anytime. I try not to abuse this privilege. She has helped me to lead a healthier life. She was the only one to pay attention to my husband and find that he had a B 12 deficiency.

My mother was recently hospitalized in grave condition. Dr. Richarme gave unending support to me and my family. She gave me advice how to handle the situation as well as a visit and a shoulder to lean on besides her expert medical advice. Her dedication to her patients is phenomenal and there is no better.

We have been with Dr. Richarme for many years and moved with her when she left Hill Clinic to go into her MDVIP practice. She takes good care of us. On one occasion she came to our home (we thought house calls were a thing of the past). And last year she came to her office the day after July 4th, when the office was closed, to take care of an injury from an accident.
We love Dr.… See more
