I miss Dr Buford soo much. He is incredibly kind & his warm gentle spirit has always made me feel better no matter what was physically wrong. I'm still hoping he will return. There will never be another like him.

Have seen Dr. Buford for 10 yrs. now and think he very skilled and caring Dr. While his staff is very helpful and courteous I do feel as though my rights under the HIPPA act were violated by some of his staff.

Dr. Buford is a very kind and caring doctor. Only downside, his office is in the dark ages. Nothing is computerized and he does not accept any plastic (cash or checks only).

Dr. Buford has been my doctor for about 14 years. Although he has a large volume of patients, he is always kind, gentle and accommodating. He has a reassuring and calming manner--very important when you are feeling unwell or worried. *Health Advantage insurance copay

Dr. Buford is an odd one indeed. He's a very nice man, always smiling, soft-spoken, but his system of making prescription refills available for patients is wishy-washy. Sometimes he will authorize refills, and then deny them on medications as simple as asthma inhalers (which I personally use). His office staff also do all of their appointments by appointment book, rather than computer, which can sometimes result in confusion and misplaces appointments (it happened to me twice). Also, the wait time in his clinic- both to be called back and be seen- is always longer than I would like. Overall I believe Dr. Buford is a good doctor and means well, but I've had too many frustrating experiences at his practice.
