Very professional easy to talk to and straight to the point. Nurse was very polite. Actually ahead of appointment time and that is always good.
Really nice guy and helped me understand my options.
Dr Bugg saved my life. He approached my prostate cancer with such confidence and assurance. I’ve been cancer free fo for 10 years!
He is the worst doctor I have ever had. He is a liar, every time I have an appointment with him he writes lies in my file regarding my health. He has the worst attitude. He did not tell me about the permanent side effects of my surgery, because he knew that would scare me away. He just wanted to do my surgery to make some money and to add me to his resume. He needs to be removed from his position, again he is absolutely terrible.
Give him a 10
Listened well, factual and honest, on time and highly competent. I recommend Dr Bugg heartily!
Great experience as always
Always a pleasure to meet with him. Dr Bugg and his staff always make me feel at ease and take time to fill me in with my progress and/or options. 👍
Bugg is the greatest!
Top notch
