The average wait time (with an appointment) is 1.5 hours and then you feel rushed once she meets with you. You can hear everything being said in the next room. Dr. Burack also didn't seem to be familiar with my history. I'm currently seeking a new provider.

The doctor and office staff were friendly, I went in for my yearly exam only. I arrived 15 minutes prior to my morning appointment, and ended up meeting the doctor about 45 minutes after my appointment time.

Abrupt and appears to be in a rush, like my case doesn't matter. Never knew who I was or anything about me. Come on just read the chart I shouldn't have to repeat myself every visit. Verifying is one thing but acting as if this is all news to her was so frustrating when I had given records and gone over everything multiple times with both doctors.
