Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Buckman was friendly, and very competent. She fixed my bloody nose issue in one visit, which I had delt with for many years. I followed her suggestions and haven't had an issue since. (Saw her on Sept. 13, 2022)

Dr. Buckman was fantastic. She was thorough, knowledgeable and approachable. She discussed not just my aching ear, but the involvement of my jaw and sinuses. She really knows what she is talking about, and she speaks intelligently in a way that is easy to comprehend. She also used the visuals in the office, so it was clear what was happening and how to help with my own healing. I highly recommend Dr. Buckman!

My office visits have been a good experience, considering all that is wrong with me. She explained things and took time with me. She understands that what is wrong with me is a difficult situation and is not rushing me to make any decisions about what is recommended for my care. She understands the seriousness of my health issues and knows it’s a lot to handle. She takes one step at a time and acts cautiously.

After months of frustrating attempts by my primary physician to "unclog" my ears, I visited Dr. Buckman, who diagnosed and treated the problem. Several years later of semi-annual office visits, the problem has never reoccured. In addition to her medical skills, she always has a sunny, kind disposition. Obviously a 5+ star recommendation.

Do NOT go to Dr. Christy Buckman. Stay away. Here's why: --> She rushed me into surgery without evaluating safer options --> She did not perform the surgery correctly --> She was annoyed when I went in for follow up appointments to inquire why I still was unable to breath through my nose --> Here's the kicker, it turns out the "deviated septum" wasn't even the problem! So she misdiagnosed me which caused me to go through excruciating pain for 2 weeks after the surgery. Did I mention the cost?
