Patient Reviews
Aug 11, 2023
Dr Buell has been our guy. He has operated on two of our family members over the last two decades. Each time we were told by our local surgeons that their cancers (bile duct) were unresectable. My grandmother was the first of our family that Dr Buell operated on . She survived for ten years until she developed lung cancer. We were so blessed to have her for all of those years thanks to Dr Buell. Then my Aunt came down with the same type of cancer. We were able to call Dr Buell on his cell phone which he gave our family. He was happy to see us and help my aunt. We are now ten years to the day from him operating on her and curing her. We can not express how blessed we are to have met him.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
