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.

Worst Dr ever, took out Sinus in error many years ago. Should of been out of practice years ago, a bad Dr.

Even though this was years ago, I would give him 0 stars. I suffered a tbi when I was younger. Overall, it resulted in vocal cord paralysis and partial paralysis in my other vocal cord. I had no idea he didn't have the slightest idea of how to treat me. Because of all the appointments with him, I think he and his office were milking money from my parents. He was quite rude to me when I was scheduled to see him. Beware, he does have a temper. What a schmuck.

I met with Dr. Buck’s P.A Holly, very disappointing. She refused to listen to me as I advocated for my care. I informed her of my medical history, specifically what worked or me and what didn’t. She ignored all my information and still prescribed the same medication that historically hasn’t worked. I was so frustrated I left the practice all together.

Unless you need surgery, he’s not interested. Diagnostic skills sorely lacking. Asked leading questions toward a diagnosis of migraine that was totally off and which seemed to be designed to dismiss actual symptoms since surgery was not necessarily the remedy. Not interested in managing chronic sinusitis or apparently anything that does not indicate surgery. Oh and TMJ is another diagnosis he uses to dismiss actual symptoms. Waited months for this appointment, which was a huge waste of time. Zero bed-side manner.

Walked out of his office. Arrogant and acted as if I was an overreacting female. NEVER in my 56 years have I been talked to that way and NEVER have I walked out of a doctor's office.

Dr Buck has done 2 surgeries on me. Every time you go to the office, he bills for a surgery if just looking in your nose.
