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.

Waste of time and money!!
He is Rude doesn’t listen. I have a Prolatinoma and gained 30 lbs from it in less than 6 months. I have been the same weight since high school. He basically told me weight gain was I needed to be more active and eat better. I am 49 I am very active and eat healthy I don’t think I could gain that much weight trying if I was healthy. I have a very active job but he wouldn’t listen. He say me walk in fat and made the assumption without asking even ONE question about my lifestyle. I also have large thyroid and other issues he didn’t even discuss, feel, check or ask for labs. A waste

Dr. Buzzola has been rude and unhelpful to me. He’s brought me in for appointments when my test results weren’t back yet and still billed me for said appointments. His office has horrible communication. I’ve had to call multiple times when they were supposed to be calling me. He tried to tell me it was my fault my bloodwork hadn’t gotten to him and asked if I told them to send it to him- when the order has his information on it. They ended up having it the whole time.He’s so rude I left in tears

He is an excellent Dr. However his staff could pay more attention to detail or what they are doing. It took 3x for them to send my script to hospital. I'd go to the hospital and the script wouldn't be there! Very frustrating!

Dr. Buzzola takes the time to explain everything. He makes sure that you understand everything before you leave. He does not rush you thru your visit.
