I think the clinic was excellent as well Dr.Buka himself along with his nurses. They were all very cordial and welcomed you with a smile. Dr.Buka was very helpful and gave me plenty of samples and did a thorough exam for any other skin problems that i might have.I would definitely recommend him to my other friends who might need a derma to consult. I would however wait and watch if the ointments he gave me works and give another feedback

Everyone that works there was efficient, helpful and very respectful. I was a new patient and only took about 10 minutes to fill out and handle all the new patient paperwork. The PA was really nice and made me feel at ease. Dr. Buka was great, he is a great dermatologist and I will recommend him to everyone.

I really like Dr. Buka, but I had to wait in the patient room over 45 minutes before he came in, and then he was with me only 3 minutes. Perhaps he was abnormally busy today.

The visit with Dr. Buka was great, he was able to figure out right away what was causing my severe eczema. Beautiful office and was seen right away.

Dr. Buka is charming and competent. However, I was annoyed about his lack of interest in the cost of drugs. I told him in the past a generic drug had done a good job treating my skin condition. Yet he prescribed an expensive branded drug. I'm guessing a pharma sales drug must have influenced him. In any case, not listening to a patient or not caring about the cost of a prescription are not what I consider good characteristics in a doctor.

Doctor is Excellent. Staff is friendly and polite in person, but can be rude on the telephone. Office Manager refused to identify herself during a telephone call. It is common practice for office personnel to identify themselves in reputable businesses in their interactions with clients. Staff should always identify themselves to clients whenever calling or receiving calls from Clients.

I've been to my share of doctors. I've never had an experience like the one I did with Dr. Buka. I booked the appointment on the web. I received text messages reminding me of my appointment and even had the ability to automatically enter the appointment into my MS Outlook. You enter a relaxing courtyard to to his office and meet an extremely professional staff. All information is computerized. I had a short wait and was walked through an art deco Dr.'s office to a viewing room. The dr. enterd a sliding glass room , introduced himself, asked if I had any specific concerns which he addressed. He also did a complete examination with a very professional assistant. The entire environment and the comforting, confident of the doctor provided a very positive experience. I've never been to a young progressive doctor like Dr. Buka. The entire experience was unlike any I've experienced to date. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a dermatologist.

Impressed that he apologized sincerely about the long wait and how that was unacceptable/unfortunate, esp. given it was my first visit and they wanted to impress me and give me the best service possible. That went a long way. Loved the vibe of the office. One of the nicer offices I've ever been to. Staff is young and friendly with no attitude. Seemed like they were genuinely happy to be there. Good music playing overhead and Dr. Buka was sporting some nice Nike kicks.

Beautiful office, helpful and friendly staff, minimal wait given that it was our first time there. Dr Buka had a warm, calm manner and was gentle with my child. He carefully explained his diagnosis and recommended treatment. He answered my questions well and then gave us printed information and instructions AND had a member of his team go over everything he had said to be sure we understood. A good experience.

I really don't know how to rate Dr. Buka since he never actually met with me! I understand that a physicians assistant can maybe give me advice about my excema, but it really rubbed me the wrong way that I had gone out of my way to see a specialist (it costs me quite a bit to do this) and he never once came in the room. Next time, I would expect that the receptionist would at least tell me that I wouldn't see the Dr so that I was prepared.

Hands down the most beautiful office ever. Dr. Buka is so accomodating, takes his time to answer all your questions, and their staff is so sweet too! They are the only derm with pharmacy at the counter. Saves a huge hassle. I am a happy happy customer! The only drawback is its a bit far via public transportation, but the area he is in is just beautiful, so it's well worth it. It must be noted that they provide emergency same-day appointments on their website, which other derm does this?! Invaluable!

Dr. Buka was very efficient. Staff at the front desk answered all questions about insurance forms. Once I was in the examination room, the assistant took care of the prep work, and Dr. Buka completed his exam in about 10 minutes time. He knew what to diagnose very quickly - but I did not feel like he rushed through the exam. I felt that he knew his stuff, and was comfortable in making a diagnosis based on his observations.

Dr. Buka has a calm, decisive manner about him which enables the patient to make an informed decision when faced with choices that have been presented by the doctor. He left me alone for several minutes so that I could determine which were the best cosmetic decisions to make. I was very pleased with the options that I chose and will continue to use Dr. Buka and will recommend him to friends/colleagues who are considering cosmetic procedures.

As a long-time acne sufferer, I've been to countless dermatologists who turned out to be unhelpful. Granted I've only seen Dr. Buka once, he made me feel hopeful and didn't make me feel guilty about my issues with picking. And the office/treatment rooms are immaculate and well-designed!

He is soft spoken with the perfect bedside manner and care you wish All doctors had. You walk in, nervous about what might need to be done and he puts you right at ease. The Doctor's asst was also very helpful and on my follow visit only saw him. Just as professional and easy to talk to. The office is easy to get to find and the front desk staff exceptional. Wish All doctors front desks were as great. I will ABSOLUTELY reccomend Dr Buka to friends.

This appointment was actually for our 5 week old son. Dr. Buka did a great job treating us. Meaning he spent time with my wife and me answering questions and making sure we understood what was going on with our baby. It’s great to have a pediatric dermatologist who is actually concerned with both the patient and the family.
