St. Luke's Hamburg Primary Care
I believe in and am committed to providing the highest quality preventative and evidence-based medical care to my patients and their families. I pride myself on getting to know my patients and understanding their lifestyles, health goals, and challenges. The most valuable skill I have learned over the years is the importance of listening to the patient. Talking less and listening more helps me deliver the most effective care.
I am a board-certified outpatient family medicine physician who joined St. Luke’s University Health Network in the summer of 2022 after practicing at another area network for several years.
Outside work, I am an avid hiker. I also enjoy kayaking, reading books about self-improvement and mindfulness, traveling and spending time with my cat Freddie.

Haven't had a pcp for years due to disagreement with last place, was nervous about going here- and everyone on staff were as kind, courteous and responsive as a patient could ask for. Full 10 out of 10 for being exactly what I needed to resume getting medical care. Thank you”

“Dr. Budinetz is hands down one of the best doctors I have ever had. When he moved to our Hamburg location (which is a good 40 minutes away from me now), I still go to him for my care. I will drive as many miles needed to see a trustworthy and compassionate provider like him. His practice is also always so caring, making It a pleasant experience and worth the lengthy commute.”

“I have been seeing Dr. Budinetz for many years!! We moved to St Lukes to be with him. He is the best PCP anyone could ask for. He never rushes you. He takes everything you say very seriously he is very compassionate. He is very thorough. He is extremely smart. He shows genuine concern for his patient. I have recommended many of my friends to him. He looks at the Patient with Their entire medical history review. The office staff is the sweetest kind of staff you could ever have!! We always get an answer the same day. They always treat you very courteously and almost like a family. I hope Dr. Budnitz gets The feedback from his patients. He is deserving of all the accolades of praise. He is a gem and an integral part of making St. Luke's family practice so thorough and good!”

“I always have a great experience here no matter who I've dealt with in the office. I love it so much that I moved and drive back home for my Dr appointments because they have set the bar so high in the care I receive, that I've not found any one near me that comes close to their level of care. I drive 3 hrs and 45 mins to see the team here and I think that speaks volumes on how much I appreciate the team here and the care o receive with them. Thank you for having such a great staff that actually cares about their patients and remembers things you have discussed with them.”
