Absolutely love Dr. Bukowski - he has been a great pediatric urologist for my daughter..., May 20, 2010 My daughter has been seeing Dr. Bukowski since 7 wks old for an ectopic ureter issue that connected improperly to her vaginal wall. He did a ureterostomy at 11 wks for her, and left it for approximately 6 mos. That surgery was followed up with a ureter implantation surgery to connect it to the bladder as expected. The next 6 yrs our daughter continued seeing Dr. Bukowski regularly for recurring kidney infections not resolved by the operations. At every visit we usually waited at least an hour. While this sounds like an annoyance to some, when you get in to see him, and he spends as much time with you as you need to get all your questions answered, you grow to appreciate he's one of the few MD's out there that really cares enough to listen to his patients and their concerns and never tries to rush you out to see the next person. In recent discussions around our daughter's situation, he spent over an hour on the phone with me talking through options we have around resolving her infections issues. An hour of no-copay related time as he was driving to his child's baseball game and trying to help us make the best decision for our child's care. I can handle a few delayed appts when I know the outcome involves thorough discussions around our baby girl's situation. On Friday, May 14, our daughter (now 6 1/2) had a second ureteral reimplant surgery under Dr. Bukowski's care. On Sunday the MD on call came to release her without examining any part of her issues. He didn't even know her complications and said very abruptly "it's all normal. You can take out the catheter and go home." Well, as any mother who worries would do, I had Dr. B paged, who spoke to both me and the nurse on the floor and decided we should monitor another day or two. He made the trip personally over to see her the following day and examined before discussing our options. He had been in surgery all day that day at UNC and came specifically for us. Then after a few questions we assumed

Misdiagnosis by Dr Larry Woodard My Daughters Story..., Feb 1, 2012 This Dr. Misdiagnosed my daughter with having the flu and did not run the proper tests needed for a proper diagnosis She was later properly diagnosed at another hospital with meningitis and encephalitis after having a spinal tab. because Encephalitis needs a prompt diagnosis for treatment to begin for recovery she was denied that chance and was put on life support died Thanksgiving day 2006. I hope her story will help other before choosing this Dr. at this hospital |

Very professional and knowledgable. Highly recommended...., Oct 5, 2011 Dr Hannani was very professional and explained my problem in detail. He showed me where my problem was on the films. He told me to not have surgery and the problem did get better with some time. Highly recommended. |

Waste of My Time (Will NEVER never never be back again)..., Sep 16, 2011 This doctor is rude, late and non- caring. I have never been treated so awful by a so called professional. I will never go there again. I don't believe half the things Dr. Young says. I have had five visits with Dr. Young for the same problem, each time she gives me a different diagnosis. This was my last visit, plus the staff isn't that proficient. |

Dr. Apostolopoulos has a warm and friendly staff who are very helpful..., Aug 29, 2011 The doctors office is gracious and helpful. The doctor is great! I rarely have had to wait. The office is efficient and care about your time and you. It has been a great experience all around. And the doctor is thorough and takes his time in explaining what is needed and why. He is truly a partner in managing your health. |
