Dr. Buchsbaum saw me promptly, discussed my issue thoroughly, and prescribed a medication that would alleviate my symptoms without interfering with nursing. He takes paperless notes also, which is a plus.

Dr. Buchsbaum is an amazing doctor! On my first visit with him, I was with the doctor for the entire appointment (except for 5 minutes when a nurse gave me a lung function test). I was very impressed at his attentiveness to my unique allergy problems, and I will definitely be using him as my doctor for as long as I can.

I've been seeing Dr. Buchsbaum for years now, he is wonderful. He was able to get my allergies under controll after two other Dr's couldn't. I feel great now.
