Richard Ash, MD

I want my patients and their parents to be active participants in their own health care, so I focus on providing education with an emphasis on two-way communication. I strive to be a good listener, and I always make sure to explain my thinking as I evaluate and treat patients.

As medical director for Bayside, I am proud of the personalized, high-quality care we provide for all our patients in our network of small offices across the East Bay. My primary goal is to make sure we are providing the very best care for all our patients.

I’ve always wanted to devote my life to helping others. In pediatrics, I get to help people every day, sometimes in small ways and sometimes in big ways. There is no greater reward than knowing you’ve made a difference in the life of a child.
