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.

Dr Buxbaum & staff are excellent.
Dr Buxbaum saved my father in law. Other doctors wanted to leave him on a catheter rest of his life but Dr Buxbaum found the problem. Dr Buxbaum now treats our whole family and he excellent with each and every one of us. Very caring, takes his time and does not rush you, and answers all questions where you can understand. Jenny & Rosie in the office are exceptional as well.

He did not seem interested in my history or whatever I was concerned about. I told about my nail coming off from the nail bed he told me to use superglue!!!! On skin???? He didn't bother to check them. I also told him about a rash on my foot since June another doc gave me a cream. He didn't look at the either He made me feel uncomfortable. I left the office and immediately when I got home started to look for another doctor. I have good one now. He is concerned about my history. My history is very lengthy with illnesses, hospitalizations and surgeries. He took the time to listen and read over it. He listened to my carotid artery and heard a bruit. I had a stroke 2018 he was concerned. Scheduled test to check, also a chest X-ray since I have COPD. He ordered cream for my rash it's healing nicely. Dr. Buxbaum was not thorough. He was very disinterested. I read his reviews they were acceptable. I wonder how true they were.

Dr. Buxbaum takes his time to talk to you about the your symptoms and needs. Very patient doctor, good listener. Front office personnel is friendly and professional. I gave him four stars because most of the times it’s not easy to see him (set an appointment) the same or next day.

He might be great, but how would I find out? His web site say's he is accepting new patients but does not return calls or email. He needs to hire (or fire) an office assistant.

Nice doctor but voice mail constantly full, so you can't leave message even during office hours. I called 5 times today between 9am and 4pm with no luck---no voice mail and no answer. Have had same trouble on other occasions. I shouldn't have to drive to office to speak with someone, request referrals, and get test results.
