"I would never recommend Dr. Busta. It is impossible to get in touch with either Dr. Busta or his office. And, when you do manage to leave a message there is absolutely no follow-up, no return call. Also, he prescribed a $595 prescription medication, called it into my pharmacy so it had to be paid through my prescription drug plan, when he could have put it through to my health plan at less than 1/2 the cost."
