I think he was ok, just not for me. While I was talking to him about the problems that I had, he was looking at the bottom of his shoe and not paying me too much attention. I believe that when you are describing or explaining why you are there for the visit, doctors should be paying attention to you, and he wasn't. Will not come here again.

July 7, 2016Anita C.Verified patient
Had to wait close to 2 hours and when I finally saw doctor, he talked to me for a minute to tell me to book next appointment because I already had lab work done at other place. I asked if I'd be charged for the visit since I was told to come back and the receptionist said no. I got charged for the visit later and when I called back to inquire about it they transferred me to billing department and the the person I spoke to was very rude saying I was charged because I saw a doctor.

I really wanted to like Dr. Buziashvili, but he was a bit of a let-down. I waited in the reception for over an hour and then the doctor himself seemed more down to chitchat than to do his job. The conversation was interesting, but really it felt like I was having to plead with him to check my thyroid, diagnose the correct dosage, etc. After the appointment, he failed to send me my prescription for weeks and gave various artificial excuses. I wouldn't recommend him because he is unprofessional, though a nice person.

Extremely direct, and short visit. Dr showed no time or willingness to listen to patient's concerns. looked like the time was the main concern.

I called the office 4 times and they won't update me on my blood results. The office is extremely short staffed, the doctor will draw your blood because he's literally the only person there. Front desk assistant left in the middle of the afternoon with no backups. Dr. Buzz himself is alright, he can't be attentive with the rest of chaos going on in the office. Never going back again.
March 21, 2017Nanyi Z.Verified patient
Dr. Buziashvili was great!
I had to reschedule an appointment from a morning appointment, and I was able to get an afternoon visit for the same day. The medical assistants at the front desk were friendly and welcoming the whole time.
I saw the doctor pretty much right away. He immediately made me feel comfortable. He was patient as a I stumbled through trying to explain things to him, and he quickly understood my issues and was able to put me at ease. I felt comfortable the whole visit, and he consistently asked if I had questions about anything he had said. I never felt rushed at all.
More than 1 year agoChristina R.Verified patient
I came in early and was seen earlier than my appointment. The front desk ladies were very nice. Dr.buzz is very friendly, and his bed side manner is extremely professional and i felt comfortable to discuss my issues with him because he let me explain what i was doing and what was wrong with me and wasnt first to recommend things. I definitely recommend and i will be back for my follow-up.
February 7, 2017Clarissa K.Verified patient
What a wonderfully nice doctor and a very welcoming office staff. Dr. Buziashvili really listened to my concerns, but didn't make my appointment too long. I feel confident that I chose the right doctor for my health problems within his specialty.
Also a huge PLUS that they are open later in the evening, so that you can go to the doctor's really after work and don't have to make extra time for it.
I do blame the wait time more on myself, because I didn't get myself to the waiting room in time!
More than 1 year agoPetra S.Verified patient
His secretaries were very nice and worked with my busy schedule to give me an appointment and a convenient location. He addressed my concerns, and even called me the next day to tell me the results of my test! Awesome doctor. Thank you so much.
January 22, 2017Irini Y.Verified patient
He was nice even though the appt was late he answered my questions im looking forward to seeing how he can help me with my condition
November 11, 2016Michele J.Verified patient
I normally do not leave reviews, but I writing this in efforts that no one else goes through what I went through as this was by far the worse experience I ever had a Doctor's office. Buziashvili is unprofessional, rude, and although my visit was 3 months ago at this point, I have yet to receive any results from my (extremely pricey) blood test or calls from his office (after numerous amounts of follow-ups from me). Please stay away from this practice.
