He understands his patients. He provides all details in discussing the issue and gives you all of your options. He doesn't make you ask all the questions, particularly if you don't know all the questions to ask!

Made multiple rude comments to me and dismissed everything I had to say. Didn't care to ask anything about my injury and handled me roughly when examining me. Never again.

Dr. Burek always takes time to listen and offers honest professional advice. I know everything will be ok once I have spoken with him in an exam.
