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 Buckles is Horrible
Telehealth
Dr Buckles is an awful person. Supremely disrespectful. He laughed at me, questioned the information I was giving him, and called me names. The absolute worst I’ve been treated by a doctor. He has no compassion or patience. Stay away.

Bad experience
After waiting 2 months for an appointment and living an hour away we arrived 5 minutes late due to school busses in the area. I called and explained we would be right there. Get inside and he took the next patient during my child’s appointment slot. Refused to see us and tried to get me to reschedule for 40 more days out. He’s a psychiatrist. A child psychiatrist. This doctor does not care about the people who need help or he would have had the slightest compassion for our situation.

Dr. buckles is rude, condescending, arrogant and he just doesn’t care. He does not care if you’re getting the help that you need and getting better! He only cares about making money! He does not do proper appointments where he can get to learn about his patients and actually do treatment that is individualized. He will talk to you like you are stupid and give you evil faces that make you feel like you are in adequate!

If I could leave zero stars I would. He’s unprofessional and has no business working with people. Extremely arrogant and unconcerned with the well being of the patient in front of him.

Absolutely! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and refer many of my clients to Dr. Buckles for psychiatric services. He is thorough, empathic and (most of all) effective. He has made a great difference in the lives of many folks and is an extremely competent doctor!
