Cleveland Clinic strives to make scientific advances that will benefit patient care and support outside relationships that promise public benefit. In order for the discoveries of Cleveland Clinic physicians' and scientists' laboratories and investigations to benefit the public, these discoveries must be commercialized in partnership with industry. As experts in their fields, Cleveland Clinic physicians and scientists are often sought after by industry to consult, provide expertise and education.

To assure professional and commercial integrity in such matters, Cleveland Clinic maintains a program that reviews these collaborations and, when appropriate, puts measures in place to minimize bias that may result from ties to industry. Cleveland Clinic publicly discloses the names of companies when (i) its physicians/scientists receive $5,000 or more per year (or, in rare cases, equity or stock options) for speaking and consulting, (ii) its physicians/scientists serve as a fiduciary, (iii) its physicians/scientists receive or have the right to receive royalties or (iv) its physicians/ scientists hold any equity interest for the physician's/scientist's role as inventor, discoverer, developer, founder or consultant.* In publicly disclosing this information, Cleveland Clinic tries to provide information as accurately as possible about its physicians' and scientists' connections with industry.

I can not say enough good things about Dr. Bucklan. I have an intense anxiety around medical offices, Dr.'s, medicine, etc. Dr. Bucklan showed me great compassion and care and listened to me intently. She clearly described the plan of care, why she was prescribing the medicine, and the science behind it. I truly felt like she listened to me and that I had a say / choice in my care which is really important for people who have medical anxiety. Dr. Bucklan is a wonderful, caring, knowledgeable doctor and I would recommend her to anyone.

Dr Bucklan is an excellent and compassionate physician. She does her best given the time constraints on patient visits imposed by the corporatist head of Cleveland Clinic.

Only fair on getting the care I needed because of the long wait times between appointments with my physician, Dr. Bucklan. All physicians are not created equal and I don't want to see other doctors in the practice, based on an unhappy experience this past fall

Reviewed on Jun 7, 2023

I waited for five weeks for a zoom appointment set for June 7. At that appointment, Dr. Bucklan apologized for the "awkward" fact that because I live out-of-state, she could not meet me as a new patient via zoom. She offered to facilitate some next steps, but I have not heard from her yet. I called her office on June 9, and was told she would be in touch. Nothing so far.

Reviewed on Jun 7, 2023

My experience has been discouraging so far, due to the long wait and then the fact that Dr. Bucklan couldn't speak with me due to my state of residence (New York). I am still hoping Cleveland Clinic will reach out to me to schedule next steps.
