Patient Reviews
Jan 09, 2024
I saw Dr. Buchanan for end stage arthritis in my big toe. Dr. Buchanan was outstanding. After a thorough discussion he addressed all my concerns and provided me detailed information on the surgical procedure. He took time to explain in detail the surgical options, the recovery time and the future impacts on my mobility and then took considerable additional time to make sure it was clear to me and that I understood all the issues. I felt very comfortable with his explanation and expertise to perform the complex surgery to solve my particular problem.
