Dr. Buchanan is exceptional. You feel very comfortable with him to the point that you would share even your minor issues. He reviews past history and links it to where you are now. I appreciate his review of medications and how they are to be taken. He makes you feel as though you are a participant in your health care program. I respect his skills and the comfort level he brings to my health experience.

August 18, 2020
I cannot say enough about Dr. Buchanan and his team. I am stubborn when it comes to my health. I [...]. I constantly but respectfully question Dr. Buchanan about various things that he suggests for me to do and or certain medications to take. I appreciate that he "hears me out" and let's me give him my perspective on what we are going to do even if he disagrees with my suggestions and even if we move forward with his way. At least I have the ability to discuss my health and my life with him rather than just go there and immediately follow everything he says. He's very understanding, caring and compassionate towards me but he is also "Dr. Buchanan" and he makes it clear that he's the doctor and that he has the education and experience that we should use to get me well. he's a great guy too.
