Today I saw the PA, I felt she was just rushing me out and not wanting to hear me out. I asked to talk with Dr burgar. She came in and we talked. I felt better after leaving my appt
Very upbeat.

Dr Burgar is the best!
Very through
Very personable and easy to talk to.
Dr. Burgar is excellent! She diagnosed an issue in my finger / my wrist and was the first Dr. to really listen to me. She providing a detailed treatment plan that was straightforward, within the same appointment. I would highly recommend her, she cares about her patients!
I had carpal tunnel operations on both hands, about 1.5 months apart. One was more extensive as there was another nerve issue outside the tunnel that required a larger incision and a more involved procedure. Dr Burgar discovered this abnormality after two previous doctors failed to do so. Both surgeries could not have gone better. I had absolutely zero pain or discomfort.
Always has time to listen and understand your feelings
