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.

The office visit went very well. Dr. Burns took a biopsy of the area on my arm. I had to open the patient portal to view results, not one person called to let me know the results. I have left 6 messages with the technicians for a return call and have never received one.

Dr Burns has now removed 5 basal cell skin cancers in the six or so years I have seen him. For the three on my face, he was able to use the Mohs technique with great results. He has also treated me for rosacea and a mysteriious rash. Dr Burns listens and is fast to replace a prescription with a more affordable one, when necessary. I would not hesitate to recommend him.
