Dr.Buben's rude, dismissive attitude is the absolute worst I've ever been treated by a medical "professional". Can't speak to his knowledge, because he didn't share any with us.

To the credit of Dr. Buben he is always there when I need him. I run an Adult Family Home serving six residents he always takes the time to talk to the resident and make the resident comfortable during a exam. If hospitalized he will spend the time to ensure their needs are being met. His nurses are the best always having a smile. Yes, he can be hard but has only telling you the truth, which at times we do not like. In short he is the best doctor on Willapa Harbor.

I agree with all the others. He's a small town medical god. With a terrible bedside manner. The only reason people go to him is bacause he is the second best family MD in the area the best is not taking patients anymore. Very unempathetic.

Dr. Buben to his credit has been very helpful in controlling my diabete's but less then helpful and dismissive with a pain management problem I have.

Seems too rushed to worry about you or your health. Request that you keep coming back each month and then does nothing to check you out.
