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.

I have gone to Dr.Burgess for over 20 plus years and I’m forever grateful that he is my primary doctor. Has a nice sense of humor to go along with the care for his patients.

The Best..
Absolutely the best Dr we have ever had..My wife's breast tumor was diagnosed early thanks to Dr Burgess insisting on a simple procedure that identified a lump and probably saved her life..

Dr Burgess is an excellent physician. As a physician myself, I know a good doctor when I see one. If a physician has chosen this doctor to care for himself and his family, that should speak volumes.

I think Dr. Burgess is an excellent example of what a physician should be. He is always professional and focused on me as a person when he addresses my conditions. He reviews my history at each visit to address any concerns he has and takes time to listen attentively to mine. I never feel that he is in a rush. I have trusted him to take excellent care of me for many years, and I have never been disappointed.

In regards to MD William Burgess, I am extremely confident that if I continued to see him I would be dead now. He cut my life short. I don?t have much time left. I have to say that he is rude, does not listen. I have told this to everyone I have met at Novant!
