A compassionate doctor
Dr. Burns-Johnson is possibly the best doctor I've ever had. 1-5. Items above were nothing short of exceptional. She spent approximately 2 hours with us and it felt as if I was the only patient in her office.
Surgeon explained procedure. She made sure all my questions were answered.
Dr. Burns-Johnson is the most caring doctor I've ever had.
“From start to finish, I focus on engaging with my patients early and often. I make sure they understand their diagnosis, the options they have for treatment, my role in the process, and that the decision on treatment is their decision.”
