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 Burnweit is phenomenal. I traveled 5 hours each way so that I could have her preform my tumor removal surgery. I met 3 other surgeons at top cancer centers who all said my surgery could not be done without major deficits. She is so intelligent and talented. She is also warm and has an amazing way about making the patient feel comfortable and confident in her. She is the real deal and saved my life!

She has a poor bedside manner. Very rude and has no tolerance for children of special needs!! This doctor when asked a question responded “it is not what you want mom, it is what I want!” This is no way to treat a parent that is just asking questions about her sons care.

I am so grateful that Dr. Burnweit helped my son. She had a very pleasant personality throughout the six month process of the surgeries. I couldn’t recommend her enough, we are forever thankful to her and her staff. The process couldn’t have gone better.
