Very nice man felt very comfortable with him
A great visit. He took his time and answered all of my questions. He seems very conservative in his treatment, which was what I was looking for. Very nice bedside manner.
Dr Puckett is great.
Very honest answers all questions. Will only see him for my hand needs.
I like Dr. Puckett a lot. Smart, easy to talk to, friendly and efficient, as is his staff.
So caring and funny. Made me feel so comfortable.
Excellent service
What an amazing Doctor. Explained the issue in detail as well as suggested remedies. Fantastic bedside manner and personality. 100% recommend him for any hand issues.
Personable. And knowable.
Completely thorough. Kind and gentle dealing with a problem with my fingers. Strongly recommend.
