Introducing Dr. N. Gregory Richardson... he cares.

Dr. Richardson graduated from Southern California College of Optometry in Fullerton, California. He has clinical experience in the Fullerton Eye Clinic, Los Angeles Veterans Administration, Santa Monica Center for the Partially Sighted, Long Beach Naval Shipyard Clinic, plus over 19 years of experience with patients of all ages in Pocatello, Idaho.  Dr. Richardson takes a minimum of 20 credits of continuing education each year to keep current with new technology and knowledge in the field. For example in the last few years, he has earned certificates in occular drug therapy and laser surgery co-management.

Dr. Richardson loves kids and has given years of service to the Boy Scouts of America as a Cub Master and Scout Committee Member. He completed the Woodbadge Leadership training in 2002 as a member of the “Moose Patrol.”  For many years, he presented puppet shows to 1st grade kids to teach eye safety in a fun way. (Look for the “Dr. Goodsight” puppet in his exam room.)

When he can break away for a few days, he and his family enjoy hiking and boating at Red Fish Lake. They also like to work on projects together such as the fort and waterfall they built in their backyard. (He also built all the frame displays in the office.)

He enjoys refurbishing computers as a hobby. He does some programming and also puts together networks. He especially likes “Macs” but has grown to appreciate IBM computers too.

After hours, he’s been caught turning up the music and dancing to a steel drum band, or “rocking out” to a current tune.

Dr. Richardson loves being an Optometrist and really enjoys meeting and helping the great people of Southeast Idaho. He wants his patients to feel comfortable and to have the best service available. We know you will enjoy your time with him.

Dr. Richardson chooses his staff for their warmth of personality. He wants the office to be a fun place to be.
