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.

I wish he was my PCP!!
Stopped up ear, no problem. High blood pressure, no problem. I loved seeing an old school doctor in an old school clinic. I felt right at home! Now I know why all my friends have praised him over the years! Friendly staff as well - great personalities.

Competent Dr., but rude staff
Dr Budd is a competent Dr., but his staff were extremely rude and hostile when we questioned a diagnosis code and asked to speak to the Dr. We were told we were “on our own,” and could never speak to him about it and “I am not your personal assistant.” We were unable to receive a much-needed electrocardiogram due to the incorrect coding issue. Even the local hospital staff (electrocardiogram provider) were met with extreme rudeness when they called and questioned the incorrect coding. After 20+ years of being Dr. Budd’s patients, we will never go back again. This display of staff’s unprofessional behavior is unacceptable.

Dr Budd is amazing! I have been going to him for about 4 years now and even though I have several other specialists? I have see, I use Dr Budd as my Primary Care. He knows my history and is extremely knowledgeable about many areas of medicine. This is not a "doc in the box.." but a full-service? medical care facility with a patient, kind, funny and extremely competent doctor in charge.
