Patient Reviews
Nov 27, 2024
So many of the doctors we have seen in the past for the same issue seemed more focused on getting us out of the office quickly. We’ve seen several different doctors for these issues, and every time we left those appointments with no answers, and we usually left frustrated because we felt like we were being blown off or not taken seriously. It was wonderful to see how he made a point of including my son in the conversation. So many of the doctors spoke to only my husband and I, and treated him almost like an object. My son was thrilled that he asked him the questions directly, and he really liked that Dr Buchinsky took the time to explain to him what he was doing and why he was doing it. He took the time to review all of the details with us, made sure that we understood everything, and gave us a great plan moving forward. I cannot express how grateful we are to have him as a doctor.
