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.

Dr. Burns has the credentials, experience and specialized skills that I was searching for when I was seeking treatment for a bilateral hernia. He is also the only surgeon in California, and one of only a handful of doctors in America, that perform the Desarda Technique, no mesh, hernia repair. My surgery went exactly as Dr. Burns had explained the procedure to me. I feel very fortunate to have been treated by him.
