Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Disappointed
She was quick to order labs/tests, send referrals and prescribe medications, but she did not take the time to explain anything. Unfortunately, she runs a very busy practice and is not able to spend the time needed with everyone. I asked several questions and never received answers. One visit with her lasted exactly 6 minutes. I wish she had the time to actually listen to my concerns and answer questions. Left feeling very disappointed and upset…

Dr Buchert - Thank you!!
The office is comfortable and the staff is so wonderful. You can tell they really value working there. Dr Buchert is straight forward, thoughtful and really cares about her patients whole health. Pregnancy might be what brings a patient in but there is so much more MINT offers. So grateful for finding them.

She acted like she had somewhere else to be. She barely looked at me and didn't give me a chance to ask questions. I didn't feel heard about my health concerns. I won't return.

Dr. Buchert was treating me as a functional medicine physician.. Thru nutrition and supplements, we were working to get my lab outliers back to normal. Follow ups were unproductive for me as I like to know the how’s and why’s.

Dr Buchert has been nothing but compassionate, informative and provided sound recommendations, which have helped me tremendously after breast cancer treatment. If you are looking for that kind of doctor that is willing to work with you to achieve your goals and you are willing to be proactive with her recommendations, then go no further.

I switched to Dr. Buchert ahead of getting pregnant with my second daughter, mainly because I wanted an OB who could really answer my questions about full health around nutrition, exercise, and pelvic floor health and she is trained in Integrative Functional Medicine I really enjoyed Dr. Buchert's bedside manner, knowledge, and model of care f.or my recent pregnancy and I recommend her to anyone. The only downfall is long wait times for most appointments and occasionally she seemed rushed.

She is a decent doctor.... she took me on very late in my pregnancy...I selected her because I wanted my birth plan to be as natural as possible. She has a booklet she gives you that explains so much and answers many questions. She always answered any questions I had but she was very busy she was in and out the room... she delivered lots of babies and was constantly running back and forth which made wait times a bit long but definitely understandable..front reception is rude at times

Required a very large amount of money upfront $6,500 for her mint health wellness group. With the understanding if unsatisfied refund of remaining balance be refunded. No refund, promises not kept. Very disappointing!

Dr. Buchert is trying hard to get all her patients to have a healthier life style which supports everything including a healthy pregnancy and labor experience. To me that 's more important than being a bubbly doctor who only tells you things you want to hear. We need doctors to be honest and caring based on their knowledge. That's exactly who Dr. Buchert is.

Dr Buchert has been helping me manage and recover from a very debilitating disease. She reads up on the newest treatments, starts off every visit by LISTENING. She is open and present during consultations, never brushing off questions or concerns. She explains important treatment options, and tries everything in her power to get to the root of the cause and get me well. My husband and I trust her 100%. Dr Buchert is a brilliant physician.

Dr. Buchert delivered my 1st baby 6 mos ago. My husband and I could not imagine a better guide in the experience. As 1st time parents, we had a lot of silly questions that she answered with care & consideration. She is extremely knowledgeable and she helped us understand the pros & cons of every major decision. Dr. B was the perfect doctor for us; compassionate, cautious w/o requiring any unnecessary tests, etc. At delivery, I felt that she was a true advocate for me. Highly recommend her!

I feel so fortunate to have been referred to Dr Buchert by my friend. I have been battling with fatigue for some time, after my last child who is 4, so much so I didn't think I could have another. With some nutritional guidance and hormone work, I am feeling better in 2months, and actually just found out I'm pregnant, and I can actually be really excited! I look forward to having Dr Buchert as my OB to guide me to be in the best health I can throughout pregnancy for my last one on the way

I love this doctor! I read review before and wasn't sure what to expect, but she came so highly recommended by several ladies I work with. I understand so much more about what is going on with my hormones and what to do about it that I never did before! I feel so much better!!! Thank you Dr. Buchert. I know the day of my second visit, she had been in a delivery, which did create a wait and hectic afternoon, but hey, that's what happens when someone is delivery babies!

I was hoping for some help when I saw dr betsy. I told her my list of problems and she told me to eat fermented food. Didn't order a single test. I went to family doctor and she ran my hormones and I am low in 2 vital hormones. Isnt Betsy a female doc? She should have cared a little. Oh and it took 2 months of me calling to get my pap results.

Dr. Buchert is patient, thorough, and extremely compassionate. There is often a wait to see her, but that's because of how much time she devotes to each patient. I have been through one miscarriage and one pregnancy (about to give birth any day now) and she has been appropriately supportive throughout each experience. I trust her medical expertise implicitly and can tell she wants only the best outcomes for her patients. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Happy Patient in Baton Rouge, LA – Dec 20, 2016
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Buchert?
Dr Buchert is clearly spread out too thin. The set up is very impressive. I have just met her once and I'm not sure if she is the doctor for me. Wait time was high. I wouldn't have had a problem waiting if she had given me her full attention. But she was so frazzled and busy that I wonder how much attention she would give me in the coming months. When I asked questions she wouldn't necessarily answer them. Just kept nodding. We did a lot of tests! Not sure what to expect in the future!

Worried in Baton Rouge, LA – Oct 27, 2016
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Buchert?
Dr Buchert is the worst Doctor I have ever seen. She has poor communication skills and is down right rude. She yelled at me on the phone and tried to hang up on me. She ran tests diagnosed problem but offered no treatment plan and it was like pulling teeth to get the results. Both my daughter and I switched doctor's after the awful and very unprofessional treatment we received. Some doctors are obviously just in it for the money. My daughters 2 visits were about 3 minuets each.

Dr Buchert and her staff are horrible. Not only do you wait at least 90 minutes before seeing her for only 5 mins, but if you try to ask for an explanation or for some help with whatever your situation, you are left with nothing or simply bad attitudes. Also if u have an urgent need, don't plan on getting any immediate help. I was bleeding heavily and in a bit of unusual pain and called to see what was possibly wrong-didn't get a call back until 5 hours later.
