They never told me that I had to come in. I was on zocdoc because I can't come in. It defeated the purpose

This doctor is fine but his front staff team is extremely unprofessional and does not confirm appointments. They canceled my appointment for no reason and are horrible communicators. Would never recommend this office to anyone.

I waited 45 minutes for my first virtual appt with the Dr Butlig and he never arrived. I decided to select another provider through my health plan.

Doctor didn't show up for a virtual appointment. Didn't hear from the office, and per their voicemail, they don't take calls anymore - you can only leave a voicemail, or text or email.

Video visit
The only experience I received was not getting a call. I finished uploading this morning and figured the office would call me but I didn't receive a call. No where did it say I was to call and check in
Verified patientVideo visit
I would not go back. The experience was horrible. The doctor tried using religion before other options as a treatment for mental health. Going so far as to comment something about demons being the source of mental illness
Good listener very friendly like him very much
Verified patient
The staff was very friendly and helpful. I was there to get my prescriptions written by a doctor in South Korea refilled... thought it might be difficult. But they readily accepted the doctor's clinical opinion forms, and helped me transition back to life in the US after spending two years abroad. The office was easy to find. Would recommend this practitioner to everyone.
Verified patient
Best Doctor in town
Verified patient
The worst experience ever. Very rude, unprofessional manner with no attention and endless waiting when barely any patients. Never would go back and not recommend to anyone.
Very nice
Verified patient
Recovering from Diverticulitis, Dr Butlig along with his PA were very compassionate and extremely helpful Also added physical examination needed great bonus, instead of having to rebook to obtain referrals. Very satisfied
Verified patient
excellent . highly recommend
Verified patient
I waited for a very long time and being that the doctor was running 2 hours late he tried to rush me when explaining my symptoms and jumped to conclusions even though I’d already explained my medical history to the PA. He was attentive though when I asked for specific tests and explained my situation again even though he tried to leave without getting my full History.
Verified patient
Great consult with the nurse practitioner.
