I was recently asked if I knew of any good doctors in the area. Without hesitation, I referred to Dr. Buell. I've been seeing her for over 3 years now. She takes time, has a very caring approach & listens to everything & we work together to find appropriate ways to deal with my pain. Referrals have been a breeze & the new location is very convenient.

Dr. Buell took over for my previous PCP who moved within the company to another location. I decided since this office was so close to try out Dr. Buell. Let's just say that her attitude with patients is not collaborative nor consultative. Her attitude might work with some, but I prefer to be a partner in my own healthcare. I am educated and well informed, apparently not qualities that Dr. Buell prizes in her patients.

Dr Buell and her staff are awesome. Dr. Buell spends time with you and explains your condition, treatments and options thoroughly. They follow up after visits to make sure you are feeling better or worse, she really cares for her patients. She knows which meds are covered and not so that you don't get a big surprise at the pharmacy, a huge plus! She's been keeping me healthy for 3 years now and I'm glad I found her!

I find Dr. Buell to be as competent and caring as any Dr. I have ever visited. Her neurological and orthopedic diagnosis of conditions for which I visited for were accurate. She is willing to refer to specialists when necessary, not always true of HMO physicians.
