Biography
Dr. Richard Rees was born at St. Joseph Hospital, and raised in Houston. He attended Lanier Junior High and Robert E. Lee High School. His wanderlust took him all the way to New Orleans for his first year in college at Tulane University. Although Tulane was an excellent school, he missed his Texas roots and transferred to Texas A&M University to finish his pre-med degree in Biology. Medical school took him to the Illinois School of Podiatric Medicine in Chicago, Illinois. Chicago is a wonderful city, but he was excited to move on to his 2 years of military training at Ireland Army Hospital in Ft. Knox, Kentucky. After completion of that phase of his professional life, the attraction of his hometown was powerful, and he returned to set up his practice.
Dr. Rees has been in private, and multi-specialty group practice in Houston. Each type of practice has brought its own enrichment of his practice experience. He enjoys the varied patients that he sees in his practice, and is humbled and gratified that his patients entrust their foot health to him.
Dr. Rees is married and has 3 wonderful adult children (of whom he is very proud). His outside interests include travel, and outdoor activities of all sorts.
