Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Good Dr.
Dr Burnstein has been awesome. I really only see him for medication updates and refiling of meds the beginning he saw me for addiction to narcotics. He set me straight and help me deal with this issue. He never pushed me or told me to stop he was aware of my medical issues, and we dealt with addiction and medical issues without lectures. I got to a place where if i needed medication for pain I took it without all the drama. I learned how to use them as needed which stop the cycle of abuse, and to get threw day to day.

I was a patient of Dr. Burnstein who had to take a break from visits due to the fact a difficult pregnancy had me bed ridden. i let his staff know what was going on. I had a terrible depressive period due to having Hyperemesis and losing 30lbs. I made my way back to the practice after a hospitalization. Not only did his staff accuse me of trying to get more Xanax (I wasn't and wanted to change) they were incredibly rude. I go into the see the doctor-he demands I apologize to him for getting pregnant. I'm a married woman who had a condom break. He had to go through my history like he had never talked to me before. This man berated a pregnant suicidal woman. He's dangerous and if I didn't have the support of my spouse, I could have killed myself behind the way he spoke to me in his office. He has zero care beside manner and is careless. Please choose anyone else but this man. A ficus would be a better option.

If you need a psychiatrist you would be best advised to look elsewhere he’s rude disrespectful. I went there for help and I was told he would never treat me I was told he does not even want to converse eight with me I was asked to get out of his office very rudely and to never come back again this psychiatrist needs a psychiatrist for his self and I would not recommend for him to treat” dog.

I was very disappointed with the lack of attention to detail along with the lack of compassion for his patients. He also lacks the clinical ability to help people.

I was extremely disappointed with the attention to detail in care and medication management. Lacks compassion for his patients along with a lack of clinical ability to help people.

I have never felt less important to a doctor than I did when I went to Dr. Burnstein's office. He does not listen to the patient, he has already made up his mind. He only ever saw me for 5 minutes and I left his office feeling terrible and cried on more than one occasion. He yelled at me for having my therapist write a letter to him to explain my circumstances in more detail. The office staff are rude, unshowered, and always wearing sloppy sweatpants. Terrible experience all around.

If you're just looking for medication, he's fine but not much compassion.

He is very thorough. He can be blunt, which I appreciate. We work on the issues together. He explains things very clearly. My sister saw him, and hated him, but she can be a real b!tch. She was probably told what she needed to hear, but wasn't willing to listen.

I had a great initial visit with Dr. Burnstein. He asked very direct questions and got right to the main issue at the time, which was sleeping. Once that was better (which it is now), he monitored my medications for depression/anxiety (I was in the hospital in December of 2015 for depression and given meds). He is a very considerate, conscientious Psychiatrist. He makes eye contact and asks in-depth questions. Les
