Family Medicine in Meridian, ID
Ridgeview Family Health is an independent family practice in South Meridian, cofounded by Dr. Elaine Davidson. Kids, parents and grandparents can all get their care at one small clinic.
The Ridgeview Family Health providers
One clinic for everyone
A small practice that knows you
Dr. Davidson cofounded Ridgeview to step away from the corporate clinic and go back to the roots of family practice: a small, close-knit clinic where you and your family are known and cared for by a team you trust.
Dr. Erik Richardson says what he loves most about family medicine is its variety and the long-term relationships he builds with his patients.
Care across the years
Children, teens, adults and seniors are all seen here. Kids get well-child checks, childhood vaccines and sports physicals. Adults and seniors get yearly wellness visits, screenings and immunizations. Everyone can get sick visits and ongoing care for conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure.
Procedures in the office
Some minor procedures are done right here, so you don’t need a separate trip:
- Laceration repair (stitches)
- Abscess incision and drainage
- Joint injections and aspirations
- Skin biopsies
Hablamos español
Dr. Erik Richardson and Mark Merrell speak Spanish, and so does our front desk, so you can call and schedule in Spanish.
