I would like to give very positive feedback about Dr Buckner. Thankfully I haven't needed to see any doctors since I arrived in the US 3 years ago, but after today's visit I felt Dr Buckner was pleasant, courteous, efficient and helpful. I would certainly recommend him.

Dr. Buckner has been my GP since I moved here about 10 years ago. I have always been impressed with the attention he gives to my issues and the time he is willing to spend during the appointment. He is knowledgeable, skilled and a comfortable person to discuss your medical issues with. I recommend him without reservation.

Dr. Buckner is a wonderful doctor. Always patient and caring. Seems to realize "real life" has an effect on the numbers on your chart and actually listens to all that is bothering you not just your current condition. Plus he remembers from visit to visit about your "stuff". I truly feel like he is concerned about me, not just one more person making their co-pay. I have been to doctors like that. I LOVE Dr. Buckner!!!!! Happy to recommend him to my friends and collegues. I have never had to wait more than a few minutes to be seen. Office is centrally located and has convenient hours.

Dr. Buckner is the most understanding doctor I have ever met. The wait is never long but, however, if you need the time with him he freely gives it. He gives referrals of doctors that he knows and accpet your insurance. Dr. Buckner is extremely easy to talk to and always gives you his undivided attention. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!! His receptionist is also a pleasure to talk to.

Dr. Buckner has been my primary care physician for about 15 years; that should attest to the respect and positive feelings toward him that I have. He LISTENS completely, and responds to his patients' needs with the utmost consideration and compassion. If I were ever dying of some horrible disease, I'd want him to be the doctor checking in on me. I can't speak highly of this man; he ennobles his profession like no other doctor I have met with. I can't speak more highly of his assistant, Linda, either.

I found Dr. Buckner on my insurance directory and then read the reviews here. Dr. Buckner is by far the best doctor I ever visited. Not only he's a pro, he's also kind, informative, and cares about the patient like nobody else. Unlike other clinics (especially in NYC) where you feel like a worthless piece on the money-making conveyor belt, Dr. Buckner makes you feel important, worthy, and human being. If you don't have a primary doctor yet or if you're sick of your current one - Dr. Buckner is hands-down your best bet.

Although the visit was brief, Dr. Buckner seemed very knowledgable and spoke in a comfortable conversational manner that allowed me to feel able to express any concerns I had. His bedside manner is friendly and warm yet still professional. I picked him because of his office's proximity to mine and the fact that his profile picture looked like what an experienced "family" doctor looks like in my head. Not exactly the best way to pick a doctor, but I was pleasantly surprised that Dr. Buckner fit the bill.

Excellent doctor. He actually listens to you, takes your medical history by interview instead of by form, and treats you like a person he wants to help. The office isn't much to look at but the doctor himself is warm, personable, friendly, and made me feel completely at ease and confident in his recommendations. I've been to half a dozen GPs in as many years and plan to stick with this one from here on out.

Dr. Buckner is a very forthcoming, practical and warm physician. He's not one to push prescriptions just because you want a fix. He clearly explains what's going on and what his opinion is on the matter leaving you to make your own decision. He's practical and smart and recognizes the importance of the feedback of his patient. He's great.

Not sure if integrity is a general requirement to be a good physician, but it is generally regarded as a requirement to be a decent person. Dr Bruckner might want to brush up on his "honesty in medicine" skills.

Dr. Bruckner is triple board certified and has excellent credentials. He was just as impressive in person. I went in for a consult on a low thyroid and think he will be my new GP as well.
