“Calm and friendly environment; very quick diagnosis”

Dr. Buka diagnosed my condition in under one minute. He and his staff were very friendly and made me feel at ease during my visit.

“Professional, Thorough, Quick”

The intake & wait time was short, the pre-exam patient history portion was thorough and not rushed. The doctor and team were all very professional and worked very seamlessly together.

“Fast, easy, answered all my questions”

“Clear Concise Helpful”

Everyone was extremely helpful from the intake nurse Diana, to the NP studying underneath him. The diagnosis was quickly resolved and thoroughly explained to me, along with treatment options. I was given options and recommendations without pressure. Felt comfortable the entire time.

“The greatest of all”

It's been a year since I first met Dr. Buka at his Downtown location. When I showed him the area that needed treatment he replied "Don't worry we will get it all clear." I left his office feeling at ease and got the medicine he prescribed. After a year, I can say he was totally correct. I went to the beach this summer feeling more confident than ever. A Dermatologist I recommend to anyone who needs any skin treatment!

“Helpful and painless experience!”

I've been coming to see Dr. Buka for a few years and always have a great experience! Appointment times are flexible and fit into my work schedule.

Overall, highly recommend!

“Comfortable and efficient”

First off, the office is absolutely beautiful (and extremely conveniently located). I was offered water when I walked in. My appointment was for 10:10, I arrived around 10, and I was all set by 10:50. There was a bit of waiting but nothing super unusual. The PA and doctor were both awesome, made me feel at ease, explained the process, and answered all of my questions. Will definitely be back next year for my screening. Thanks team!

The whole experience was great, and if something else pops up, I'm sure that I'll be back here to be taken care of.

“An amazing physician”

Dr. Buka is an amazing doctor, he is very knowledgeable and down to earth. I love the fact that he has different practices all over NYC, and that he and his staff are pretty flexible when it comes to scheduling appointments or when you are running late. I would recommend him and his staff to anyone that wants to treat their acne or any skin issues; plus they are always plying great music in the offices and offer you water and seltzer water :)

“Good visit and friendly staff”

The visit was rather quick and thorough with the appropriate amount of discourse to tackle underlying cause of my questions and concerns. In addition, Dr.Buka was cordial and was interactive with his medical knowledge and provided me with a mini science course with my skin issues (I really appreciate when doctors do that). Staff was cordial and friendly. FYI: 3-page sign up upon visit even if you filled out zocdoc info. Otherwise I like that the visit was not too long and not too rushed.

I've had a bleeding mole since Sunday and wanted it removed and they had ensured me of the process and told me everything he was going to do before he did it. the process was fast and easy. he left me in shock of how fast he removed my mole (literally a minute), it was not only quick, but painless too. i can't be more excited about coming back if my problem happens again. they treat their patients so well and is caring for them as well. I did not regret coming here at all

I made a wise choice!

“Easy and quick.”

Dr Buka and his staff were quick and helpful. My only complaint would be the amount of people in the office when talking to the doctor (3) was intimidating.
