About Richard G. Mugol, MD

I became a physician to help others in need. I grew up in the Washington, DC metropolitan area and come from a big family. These influences strongly encouraged my desire to serve patients of diverse backgrounds across the age spectrum. It is an honor to serve as a physician to my patients. I enjoy spending my free time with my wife, son, daughter and two dogs. I am a big fan of classic rock, jazz and classical music. I'm an avid reader, especially works by Ernest Hemingway, John Steinbeck and J.D. Salinger. I am also fanatic for NFL football and Major League Baseball.

Dr. Mugol is the absolute best! He listens and truly cares about his patients. He is quick on the emails and always makes time to really talk about my concerns (and believe me, I have a ton of health problems!) There is a reason that we trust him with the care of our entire family. He is amazing.
