It was my first time meeting Dr. Buffington and he was so incredibly nice. I felt dumb having to come there with a thorn that I’d had in my foot for a month and kept putting it off because I was hoping it would work its way out. He never made me feel dumb or like I shouldn’t have waited so long. He did a great job caring for me and making sure I was comfortable, and he got the thorn out! I feel so much better already.
