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.

I love going to see him and his staff. They treat you like family. Dr. Bucco is the only Dr that I have ever felt comfortable to talk to about my medical problems. I love the staff. They are so sweet and kind. I think anyone who goes to see them will be glad they did.

Dr. Bucco and his staff are definitely a 5 plus star to me. They genuinely care about me and all the patients that come through their door. If you need a doctor and your around that area, go see Dr. Bucco and his staff. I promise you will see what me and everyone else that left a review is talking about!! I carry my dog Blaze (a 6 lb pomeranian) and Dr. Bucco is always so sweet to her. My last visit he gave her some grilled chicken from the grocery store because he remembered me talking about how she loves chicken. Just a down to earth, caring, feel like your at home atmosphere!!

To give a review isn't enough. This can't explain what my life has gained by seeing Dr Bucco and his staff. My support system is amazing because of Dr Bucco and his staff. Having an addiction is not a easy thing to talk about. It involves self shaming, feeling scared, and worried about what comes next. Everyone at Main Street Medical has been AMAZING, supportive and not one single time have I felt like I am alone in my recovery. I recommend Dr Bucco and his staff more than 5??! The galaxy of stars would barely be a drop in the bucket. Kristen Pamplin

Dr. Bucco is a great physician and always very attentive. He always gives me the time I need and makes sure I'm taken care of. He even helped me change out a blown tire in his parking lot! I love going for my monthly checkups! He and his staff are always so fun and friendly.

Dr. Bucco is an excellent down to earth physician. He has accomplished more in his life than most of us could accomplish in three lifetimes. He and his staff have always treated me like family. Many of his patients, including me, consider Dr. Bucco not only a doctor but a friend. He truly cares about the well-being of all his patients and is very passionate about his work.

Dr. Bucco's team is handling the COVID-19 pandemic with as much grace as possible. Even though they are a small town clinic, they seem to have their wits about them while still managing a steady flow of patients. The staff seems to be keeping a positive attitude though it all!
