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.

Highly
We arrived 30 minutes late due to poor performance by the transport co. We had to travel from Alexandria and my wife was on a gurney with a gown and a blanket. She had to be placed near the front door of the reception area. Wait time was at least 1.5 hours. At some point another person in the waiting room confronted us saying she thought we should position my wife someplace else. I held my temper but was angry at our situation. Perhaps something better can be done for such patient.

Excellent doctor. Highly recommend!
Dr. Buber is an extremely knowledgeable and competent doctor. He provides clear and concise medical advice. He reviewed my X-rays, listened to my concerns, and answered my questions thoroughly and in an unrushed manner, a kindness I appreciate. The office staff is very pleasant and efficient, from front desk staff to nurses and the PA.

Arrived early and was taken into exam room just a few minutes later. Had x-rays and Dr Buber came in at approximately my appt time. We had a relaxed visit in which he answered my questions and did not appear rushed.

Quiet Excellence
Dr. Buber took the time to explain my fractures, showing me where they were on the imaging. He answered all my questions and I never felt rushed. He has a great calming bedside manner, and I am glad to have found him.

Comprehensive services!
Dr. Buber is kind, considerate, and very knowledgeable. Like all doctors these days, he could spend a bit more time during appoints. Make a list of questions and show it to him first, which is what I do. And get access ti the patient portal so you. can see info about your appointment, and msg the staff with any follow-up questions.

I was in a serious accident last year and went through surgery by another doctor. But the results were unsatisfactory. I went to Dr. Buber for a second opinion. Dr. Buber is kind and patient. He fixed the problem and I am on my way to recovery.

Excellent visit that put my worries away.
From when I first called and spoke with the schedulers to make an appointment, to the check out clerk at the end of my visit, everyone I encountered was incredibly friendly and caring. They really know how to treat a person well, especially when one is down on their luck with an injury.Dr. Buber was super friendly, compassionate, and knew exactly how to handle my injury. This practice came highly recommended and I certainly can see why.

I personally noticed that he was direct and very proficient in terms of the prodeure and the process of the nature of my injury; tibia fibula fracture. The appointment process for follow ups allowed for time adjustments if needed, and also given in a timely manner. Dr Buber demonstrated a demeanor indicative of his profession. All in extremely satisfied.
