"Excellent."

January 26, 2024

"Was the best caring professional I have ever had to deal with. 10 stars"

January 20, 2024

"I have already recommended Dr Burgess to a friend in need"

January 16, 2024

"He didn't seem to care about the history of what treatments I have already gone through over the past 3 decades. It seemed like he was more concerned with removing old hardware that isn't bothering me and wouldn't order an mri because of the hardware saying it wouldn't give clear pictures although I have had this test done a few times since having the hardware placed. So it looks like I have to start all over with physical therapy."
