— Healthgrades patient review"He patiently listens to me about my medical concerns and addresses each and every one... Not only is Dr Burton a intelligent and thorough clinician but he works many more hours than he should making sure his patients are taken care of."
— Patient review (Holt Tribble)"This place of medicine is terrible. It’s like they will listen to what works for you and purposely choose an alternative route of treatment. Instead of doing their job and treating you they will give you a bunch of dead end referrals to other offices."
