Dr Burney and all the staff provided good comprehensive care, and put me very much at ease for the procedure. It was clear he was fully aware of my history and paid close attention to my overall health. His explanation of findings was very good and I feel comfortable knowing I can call with questions or concerns.

Dr. John Burney, III, M.D., chose a career in medicine because it was the perfect match of his passion for biological sciences and his "people person" personality.
