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.

As a new patient I was welcomed graciously and Dr Burton impressed me with his taking time to go over my past med history and not just rush through this process.

A big thanks to Dr. Burton and his staff
I went to Dr. Burton’s office to establish care in this area since we’ve recently called Middle GA home. I was pleasantly surprised by the kindness and efficiency of the staff. Dr. Burton displayed much patience in hearing about my medical history and referrals that were needed for my continuity of care from my previous internist. He was kind, knowledgeable, took time to hear me out and never rushed me; he showed he was invested in my care. His office also made sure a necessary medication was called into my pharmacy the same day. I was a bit apprehensive and even nervous in establishing care with a new doctor in a new city and state: my concerns were relieved because of his disposition and his great staff. I will recommend Dr. Burton to any friends or loved ones as I had a great experience and he proved to be knowledgeable, patient, and caring. A big thanks to Dr. Burton and his staff.

I cannot ever get anyone to answer the phone. It's also hard to get refills.

Doctor Burton has been lacking and slacking patients care, he doesn't listen to what his patients has to say about his workers.. His workers in his office is very disrespectful to patients. Patients have a hard time getting meds called in to their pharmacy. His work ethics as a doctor is very very poor. He really needs to gain control of his staff they are terrible and very unprofessional.. I would never refer anyone to this doctor ever again. It's sad that people trust doctors with their health care and the patients are being neglected, disrespected and being stressed out by the lack of professionalism the staff and doctor gives patients. so my advice to people thoroughly check the doctors background and credentials, and the way the patients view or rate their work work ethics and staff. If your gut feeling is telling you something not right leave and find another doctor.. And carefully watch how you are being billed...
