Chadi Richeh, MD

Chadi Richeh, MD, is Board Certified in Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism, seeing patients in Rancho Mirage, CA.  After medical school, Dr. Richeh completed fellowship programs in cardiology and pediatric cardiology at the University Rene Descartes in Paris, France. Upon relocating to the United States, he completed a residency program in Internal Medicine and a fellowship program in endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, North Chicago, IL. He also has a certification in Obesity Medicine from the American Board of Obesity Medicine.

Coming from a family of physicians, there was no question that Dr. Richeh would pursue medicine as a career. His twin brother is also a physician. When asked about the switch in specialties from cardiology to endocrinology, he states, "While working in cardiology in France, most of my cardiology patients were diabetic. So upon relocating to the U.S., and needing to complete another residency and fellowship, I decided to pursue endocrinology as it afforded more variety in care and diagnosis. Rather than focusing on a single organ, I now am able to impact systems within the body that affect organs!"

"I treat every patient as if they were a family member. Patients come to me because they need answers and guidance regarding their health. Respect and dignity are my goals to keeping patients satisfied," Dr. Richeh reflects. "Many of my patients will be seeing me over the long term, and I want them to feel comfortable and look forward to seeing me and my team."
