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.

AMAZING
He has the BEST understanding of any Physician or Health Care Professional that I have had the privilege of meeting! I look forward to working diligently with him on my journey.

Cares about his patients
Although I was there for my yearly physical, I had a UTI which he prescribed me antibiotics for. He takes his time each visit. He listens to you. Not too many doctors are like him out time. Bottom line, he cares about his patients.

From the moment I walked in,(I didn’t even have time to fill out patient paperwork)they were calling my name to take me back to the room. Dr Bunten, soon after, came in and was so pleasant and took a look over my history and addressed questions I had. Very easy to talk with and seemed very knowledgeable to handle what my needs were. I love the fact that he considers not just traditional medicine but that he talks about wellness and longevity which were more my focus. Great experience.

I will NOT!!!
This practice and staff left me in a very dangerous position because they had BOTH the physician AND his PA on vacation at the same time!!! I understand people need vacation, but not only is scheduling vacation for both of my decision makers simultaneously a bad business practice, but it borders on being reckless. Seriously disappointed after many decent years here!!!
