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.

Excellent PC Doctor!
Very thorough and proactive on medical issues.

Highly recommend
Personal healthcare should never be taken for granted or routine. Dr Buchanan spends time before every appointment to study our charts and medical history. He asks us questions about the areas of concern we have previously identified and will recommend treatment or specialist care. His broad exposure as a family practice physician supports his ability to provide excellent care. We have been blessed having nearly a 3 decade relationship and Dr Buchanan has always taken a personal interest and responsibility in his follow up and communication. We appreciate his office staff and find them to work as a team to provide us with excellent healthcare. We know Dr Buchanan will listen to our questions and concerns and provide us with a well researched response because of his continuing study of medical research and patient care. We are honored to have Dr Tim Buchanan as our family physician.

Dr. Buchanan is great!
My appointments always go off without a hitch and if me or my family is feeling ill, Dr. B will change the appointments to telehealth just to make sure he can still see you and make sure you and your family are doing well and that way he can prescribe what you need to get back on track. Couldn't be happier with my experience here and would highly recommend Dr. Buchanan and his practice.

Best GP doc I’ve ever had
Dr. Buchanan is very welcoming and personable from the moment he greets me. He always takes the time to explain everything. He also is very good at diagnosis of whatever problem I’m having. He is an excellent Doctor and goes that extra step to coordinate all my unique medical care.
