Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

He did a fabulous job at helping me get through my surgery which he performed. Now I’m not in pain like I used to be. He listens to all your concerns and helps to make a plan concerning all of them

I put all my trust in him to deliver my first child and he failed me miserably! I had 4th degree tearing which was unbelievably painful and a long recovery process. My child had shoulder dystocia and I lost a lot of blood. My child had to be seen by a neurologist to make sure everything was okay. It could have been avoided if I was given a CSection like I asked from the beginning. I am still recovering from the horrible job he did and would never want what happened to me to happen to anyone else

Dr. Burns is fantastic! I have been a patient of his since he delivered my daughter 10 years ago. I have traveled from another state the past 3 years just to keep my appointments with him. He is very knowledgable, patient, caring and makes sure his patients are comfortable. He answers all of my questions and never rushes me out of his office. I will not see another OBGYN. I highly recommend Dr. Burns and his friendly staff!

Dr. Burns is such an incredible doctor. I had the best pregnancy/delivery experience although there were several complications throughout. He truly cares about his patients and has an amazing bedside manner. So thankful for him.

I was happy with my time with Dr Burns but was very unhappy with every other aspect of the appointment. Long wait times both in the waiting room and the exam room. Rude front desk staff.

Dr. Burns is AMAZING! We were struggling with infertility and kept being misdiagnlsed from another practice. We were referred to Dr. Burns from several friends. I am so glad we were! We ended up switching to him and within 3 months we were pregnant. He just delivers our first child. He is very knowledgable and honest. He explains stuff in a way that is very understandable. He cares for his patients and goes out of his way to make sure you are comfortable. His nurse is great and very friendly! Th
