Patient Reviews
Feb 07, 2022
I am a patient of Dr Bouffard with many muscular/skeletal issues. Dr. Bouffard has given me many options on how to proceed with my problems. I trust him to do as much as he possibly can to help me. His nurse, Eola Bentley-Force, is a very warm and helpful individual who listens very carefully and always has great suggestions. The staff is also very accommodating and have written a few reports to help me document my condition when they were required.
