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.

My Favorite Doc Ever

My husband is impressed by the care he gets from Dr. Burger. My friend and her family like him as well. I, however, must remind him of an ex-wife or a professor who graded him harshly. I have been seen in his office 4 or 5 times in 6 years. He keeps the appointments with me short. The last one was about 6-7 minutes. He cut me off while I described the symptoms that had brought me in 10 months earlier that were not taken care of at that time by the PA. He spent half of our time at that visit trying to convince me to schedule a colonoscopy and to see his PA for a gynecological visit. Less than a week later, I had a bladder infection that required antibiotics. I called before noon on a Friday. The office could not fit me in. It would literally have taken 5 minutes for me to give them a urine sample so they could test it and phone in a prescription. They offered me an appt on Monday. I spent 6 hours trying to find an urgent care that would take me so I could get relief.

Dr. Burger an awesome doctor!!! He has excellent bedside manners and never in a rush. He listens to your concerns and addresses them accordingly. He also does not push medications on you if it is not necessary; more like if the benefit outweighs the risk. I gave him a five star ??. I have been going to him over 4 years and have recommended him to my family. Keep up the great work Dr. Burger. I wish the office took Tricare insurance.

I've been battling some mental health issues for a while. Depression, exhausted all the time, lethargic, etc. Every other doctor I've been to just writes a script for an antidepressant. Dr. Burger is the first to take the time to get my blood work done and see if there's an underlying issue. Turns out there was. I finally feel for the first time in years that I'm on the right track to getting better! His staff was super friendly too.

Dr. Burger was very caring and wasn't in any rush when I met with him. I was really impressed with care and his council. The entire experience was excellent. I really like the Patient Fusion (a patient portal) on the internet. A way to view your health records and test results. You can even schedule appointments.

Dr. Burger is always efficient and caring. Two qualities that don't seem to go together, however he manages both with aplomb. He is invested in my health and encourages healthy habits and includes cards and take home articles for healthful living. His team is exceptionally responsive and takes time to help as quickly as they are able.
