A great satisfying experience with Doctor Burns; Very friendly and so comfortable to discuss all issues which he listens with patience and takes time to clarify every aspect with clarity. Makes one very comfortable and confident to pursue the further steps towards wellness!

I have been seeing for more then 5 yrs....he is knowledgeable, very professional, And has kept me off of dialysis from getting severe kidney failure from a short gut ileostomy. I am an RN of over 40 yrs...and I travel over 2 hours one way just to see him. Who ever becomes his patient will feel very confident the they made the right choice. I feel he is the best by far!

Misdiagnoses and refusal to acknowledge that he might be wrong. Said to me: "Do you think you know more about medicine than I do?" My response, "No, but I know more about me than you do." Arrogant, ignorant putz.

After making sure I was there early to fill out all the paperwork so I could be on time for my scheduled appointment I was put in a room and ignored for an hour. Clearly my time means nothing to them. I just got up and left. Unless you have nothing else to do all day I would not recommend going to this doctor.

Dr. Burns is a kind and compassionate physician, always attentive, and explains my conditions thoroughly. He has my complete respect and confidence

I've been sitting in the room for more than an hour and still haven't seen Dr. Burns. This is very poor scheduling and professionalism on his part. I will not return here and DO NOT recommend anyone to him, unless u have nothing to do for the rest of the day.
