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.

Outstanding Care
I was referred to Dr. Buzad by my GP and very thankful I was. I had a surgery that unexpectedly resulted in an open wound. Anticipated recovery time time was 12 weeks but with Dr. Buzad's follow-up care and instruction I was done in 7. He and his staff are professional, kind, extremely knowledgeable and I felt like they truly cared about my well being the entire time.

I recently went to see Dr. Buzad. I found him to be extremely likeable. He really listened to what I had to say. I was not rushed in any way. He made my visit comfortable with a wonderful bedside manner! I feel confident having him as my surgeon. I personally, would highly recommend him.

I was told Dr Buzad traveled world wide to teach other doctors the Da vinci surgery for Hiatal Hernia? This is not a visit but a question for a future visit

We were in a rush to get to surgery but Dr. Buzad spent extra time to explain the process and what he expected to do when he opened me up. His follow up was pretty amazing and he left me feeling like he cared for my health and well being.

He was very rude and refused to let me talk. He seems extremely distracted and his eyes were constantly moving back and forth. He was no help. I was so lucky one of my own doctors called someone he was familiar with and they saw me and resolved my issue and acted normal too. I also saw a local tv station did a very negative report on Buzad as he was driving and I knew I would never let him do anything on me.

I have had multiple surgeries performed by Dr. Buzad over the past few years and he has been instrumental in improving my quality of life. Dr. Buzad worked tirelessly to help me through these procedures and he would go out of his way to consult with and seek out other specialists to help in my recovery. Dr. Buzad is a surgeon who truly cares about his patients and tries hard to solve your medical problems without surgery, but if surgery is required, he is the best person for the job.

Dr. Buzad repaired my complicated diverticulitis, which had a fistula communicating with my bladder, Quite a mess on the CT scans, with significant infection and inflammation. He used the da Vinci robotic system, on which he is an expert, to perform a colectomy. Incision sizes were small, recovery relatively quick.No complications.It appears to a complete success. Dr. Buzad inspired my trust, was responsive to my concerns, is a good guy, and an exceptional communicator, encouraged my questions.
