Patient Reviews
Sep 13, 2023
I was able to get a same day emergency appointment with Dr. Buchanan for a debilitating issue with my foot that happens only intermittently. Fortunately, he was able to see me during one of my debilitating episodes. He was able to diagnose my issue and offer solutions previous doctors couldn’t because I could never get in when it was happening. Dr. Buchanan is very pleasant and has an approachable bedside manner. I am very happy to say I will finally be able to have my foot issue fixed thanks to Dr. Buchanan.
