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 Burklund is a kind, caring and compassionate physician. He never rushes you and explains every detail of his procedure. He is so knowledgeable in his expertise. He answers every question with thorough detail. I would HIGHLY recommend him.

RFA
Telehealth
I’ve been getting an RFA on the lower right side of my back for years. The procedure I had last August didn’t get rid of the pain so I had another RFA scheduled for May 14th. When I talked to them about the pain they determined it was coming from the left side. They did some test injections on the left side and within an hour the pain was gone. Great prognosis from the Dr and his team. Thanks Guys

Dr. Burklund is very good about explaining the procedure. He is also very patient when you ask questions. I would recommend wearing something comfortable that you are able to lie on your stomach for a period of time without moving.

Outstanding bedside manner!!!
His biggest asset is his very personable and outstanding professional bedside manner. He strives to ensure his patients understand his actions before and during the procedure. His team did their utmost to ensure my comfort and reduce my anxieties, and they are as much to be credited as Dr. Burklund.

A Specialist In All Regards
Dr Burklund took over my pain management case two years ago when my former Specialist retired. He is respectful, attentive in listening to my concerns and desires to live my life pain free without relying on narcotics and has been Instrumental in transitioning me from steroid injections to radio frequency ablation that gives me better results and less risk to my bones.In my opinion he is a vital member on my medical team to keep me living my best life throughout my senior years.

Back injections
I saw Dr. Burklund for Lorraine back pain caused by degeneration and arthritis in my spine. He took the time to fully explain my options and helped me to determine what course of treatment was right for me. He has a great touch and the injections so far have been virtually pain free.

Excellent Doctor
I’ve seen Dr Burklund on several occasions and he’s the only Dr I’ve seen who took the time to understand my condition. We’ve tried several treatments without major neck & back surgery again. I’ve gotten results from my procedures and am really grateful! His staff and him are extremely professional, courteous and make you feel comfortable explaining everything they are doing. They are the best Dr team in Spokane, and I'm happy to give them 10 Stars!!
