What else would you like to say about your experience?
I really appreciated the fact that the staff was very quick about getting me in to see Dr. Bussey and I appreciated the fact that he called me personally with my CT scan results to let me know how things were going. Really did appreciate that.

What else would you like to say about your experience?
Excellent care. Exceeded my expectations. Everyone was kind, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful from the front desk to the back office medical assistant to Dr. Busse. The doctor has been thorough and patient with me, yet efficient, at each visit. I felt like I was in control of my care. He gave me information, recommendations and then options. I was sure I would need surgery but he fixed my shoulder with a couple of shots and referral to physical therapy. He's caring and pleasant, as is all the staff. I highly recommend Dr. Busse and his office to anyone needing a orthopedic care.

I am beyond heartbroken and sad. I have brought up the issue of severe hip pain, unevenness in my legs causing me to lose my balance and fall. My concerns fell on deaf ear.

I know the doctor is super busy and he seeing a lot of patients the time between when he left to tell me he was coming back and the time he came back was probably 15 minutes. I think he had a patient in between, which is fine. But that was a long time to wait.
