Excellent bedside manners. Knowledgeable about heart and high blood pressure management. Appointments are on time or within a few minutes. No long wait. Allows time for questions. Highly recommended.

I have been a patient of Dr. Burris for many years and always found him to be an excellent doctor. The office staff, whoever answers the phone during the day is horrible. In particular the person I was told is the manager was the worse. I just decided I cannot take it any longer and will find a new doctor. They were rude and uncaring, I am sure Doctor Burris in not aware of how his staff talks to people, and if he is aware then it is best I go to someone else. One other issue ;When the computers where down, I was told over and over for two days to call back... in 10 minutes or one hour then the next day. No one ever offered to call me back to set an appointment

I would recommend this doctor to any and everybody! He was so courteous to me and he actually cares about his patients. From the bottom of my heart, I truly and honestly think that Dr. Burris is one of those doctors who actually care about his patients.

Poor bedside manners. My mother was on a medicine for a whole year plus and then when I ask for new refills he said she should have been off of this medicine when she got her pacemaker. What is one to do.
