Dr Burch is a very good listener, caring and understanding doctor. I do not want any more surgeries and I've been giving doctor a hard time over a year with my decision on which surgery to have. Today's visit was emotional at 1st and with his professional skills I was able to agreed on a decision I am very comfortable with. I have no worries about this situation anymore. Thank you!!

To say that Dr. Burch is a Miracle Worker is an understatement! Dr. Burch gave my sister a second chance at a normal life. For 11 years, my sister suffered from a multitude of gastrointestinal issues so severe that she was unable to function. She was unable to work, travel, or attend family functions. She became a hermit, unable to leave home. For every marginally good day, she would spend 4-5 days in bed, unable to eat, or keep down anything she did manage to eat, unable to sleep, unable to stand up or even, to talk. She had constant nausea, and heartburn so severe that even water was hard to drink. She was severely malnourished and constantly dehydrated. Six weeks since surgery and she feels like a new person. She has not had any heartburn or nausea since then, she has energy, and was able to drive 300 miles on her own to come visit me—something she could not do before the surgery that saved her life!! Dr. Burch and his team gave my sister back to us, and we are eternally grateful!!

Both Dr Gaddam and Dr Burch were very generous with their time. They listened to my situation thoroughly, and asked probing follow-up questions. I was extremely impressed by their professionalism and knowledge.
