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.

Cervical cancer not his area of expertise
When Dr. Bucy added 2 extra weeks of radiation to the 5 weeks typical for cervical cancer, I wish I had asked for a second opinion. It is now over six months since the end of my brachytherapy, which was extremely painful - something he never told me - and I still have many problems as a result, probably permanent. Had I known then what I would have to deal with as a result of so much extra radiation, I would never have let him do it.

Compassion, Explained everything regarding the treatment as well as the projected outcome. He explained my diagnosis and that he reassured me that he felt everything was going to be ok. He is very knowledgeable in the field.

Initially fantastic... After that he has no real time for you and your new questions. What he is treating is not a headache (take 2 aspirins and go to bed) this is radiation and maybe some of us are not text book patients, I feel like I am now a gennie pigs. I have new concerns and he is just to busy to give you 5 minutes, he either was really pulled away from my time within 4 minutes with his silent pager or it was real, next meeting of 3 minutes the nurse open the door and said that he was needed elsewhere... And was annoyed when I said that I had two questions about my body changes, he could have returned to talk to me but said that the nurse will answer my questions... So uninterested in patients... If I could transfer to someone else I would do it A.S.A.P.

Not great. No bedside manner, and had trouble inserting the radiation wand where it needed to go. No comparison to Dr. Lightsey, who has a wonderful, and caring personality,-and had no trouble at all with the radiation wand, causing no pain or discomfort, which I had with Dr. Bucy. This is invasive enough, without being made to feel very vulnerable, with not a lot of consideration. He made me feel uncomfortable.

Dr. Bucy and staff have been amazing. This is the last leg of my cancer treatment. Dr.Bucy is smart,easy to talk to and confident. The one constant I hear from the therapists as they position me is..."Perfect". For as many patients as they see in a day...you're markings must always be "Perfect". They say it slowly and confidently,then the radiation can begin. In the 7 weeks I've been there,not one off day;not one negative thing can be said. The front staff & nurses are exceptional too.
