Patient Satisfaction
Leave a review
How likely are you to recommend Dr. Burford?
Dr Burford is the best communicator of any doctor I have dealt in my 79 years. I was very fortunate to have her take me as a patient after I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. She always explains the issues in terms that I can understand. She is always thorough during my exams and is always prepared for my appointment. Always spends the time necessary to cover all issues and never rushes. She's the best!
