Post surgical care is not as aggressive as I would like to see. Hopefully the delayed PT will still be effective.
I saw another doctor and she was marvelous
She’s friendly, very efficient, knowledgeable, and has a good sense of humor
Dr Burgar has a delightful way of calming me, making me laugh, and getting down to business in one short appointment. I am so glad my doctor referred me to her because I hear past patients of hers say she’s the best when it comes to healing hands.
Have seen Dr. Burgar several times for various thumb, finger, and elbow issues. She is efficient, friendly, and clearly explains the respective condition. I am an active senior, and each time was able to resume my activities.
She is so knowledgeable and kind. She took care of my fractured radius. She answered all my questions and treated me with kindness and respect.
My appointment was scheduled with Dr Burgar. At no time at confirmation or at my appointment was I told I really wasn’t going to see Dr Burgar. I saw her PA. So why wasn’t I just scheduled with the PA? Also the off site scheduling staff at lunchtime,was confused about if there was an earlier appointment available that day.
She is one of the best orthos around. Highly recommended
She was very thorough .
She was nice and she was thorough
