Amy Ford
Friendship Surgery Center in Buford gets 5 plus stars in my book. From the the time you walk in the door until you leave, your made to feel like you are the only patient in the building. They treat you with such care and respect. I walk in and I am usually very nervous and the staff is amazing at keeping you calm. Everyone greets you by name and the environment is so clean and peaceful. Well now where to begin yes the surgical staff is awesome, but Dr.H .Keith Robinson is absolutely amazing.Not only as a doctor but as a human. His compassion and bedside manor are impeccable. I have been a patient of his for over 19 years and I followed him from Northside hospital all the way to Gainsville and will continue to follow him. I drive over an hour one way just to see him . So basically that tells you what kind of doctor and person that man truly is. I am writing this review not because I have to but because I want to. I wanted people and other patients to know that if they use this practice what kind of health care they can expect to receive. I do hope everyone reading this is healthy and not in need but if you find yourself in need of an awesome place please consider giving them a chance. And please let me recommend Dr. Keith Robinson and his amazing nurse Brandy Wilson, you won’t be sorry and the them ‘ Amy sent you’ Cheers to happy and healthy healing. ABF 10/13/20

The entire staff, all the nurses and Physician Assistants are always so kind and courteous. Dr. Turner is SO amazing at what he does and his experience & warm bedside manner will put you at ease. He always knows just what to do to ease my pain as much as possible even though my spinal issues are complicated. He's performed countless skillfull & successful procedures to help me and this is why I've trusted him as my doctor for over 10 years. Lou, the procedure Anesthesiologist, is also so sweet and very skilled at what he does calming my anxiety & pain during the procedures making them much more bearable. Thank you to the entire staff at Specialty Pain & Friendship Surgery Center, you get an A+++ in my book!
