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.

Hip Revision Surgery
Dr Burke did a hip revision surgery for me in Feb of 2024. The care I received from Dr Burke and his staff was excellent. It is now about one year later and I could not be more pleased. Thank you Dr Burke and your staff

Still Suffering!
Two and a half years following a total right hip anthroplasty, I'm still suffering from the damaged femoral lateral nerve which occurred during surgery. Throughout the duration of follow-ups, I was told to 'Give it time'. Well, now it seems it's diagnosed by others as being permanent and something I have to live with. His non-caring, flippant attitude toward the condition and failure to offer any solution or refer me to anyone or might have helped has caused nothing but chronic upper leg pain radiating from the scarred area ever since.

Excellent Surgeon
Dr. Burke replaced my hip in 2018. 6 weeks ago he replaced my right knee. The hip replacement was excellent. It appears the knee will be also. After vigorous PT have already been cleared to drive, swim, bike and golf. We be cautious before attempting. Dr. Burke has blessed me with two excellent surgical results. He is a superb orthopedic surgeon. His entire staff is very helpful with all aspects of pre and post-surgery

Outstanding MD
Dr. Burke replaced my left hip 10 years ago and recently replaced my right hip. All went well with both hips until a fall a month after the newest replacement which required revision of the new hip and repair of the broken femur. This was done within 24 hours . He even got me into surgery earlier than scheduled. He's the very best!

Great Doctor!
My first time having surgery was made more bearable and non-stressful due to the interaction, communication and care taken by Dr. Burke and his entire staff. I had a hip replace and am up and walking within three weeks afterwards without a walker or cane. Definitely an upstanding and highly qualified professional physician. If you are going to have a hip replace, I highly recommend. Thank you Dr. Burke and staff!

Anterior hip surgery
I was impressed by the professionalism of Dr. Burke and his staff. How friendly and positive all office and staff personnel were , as well as the nursing staff and hospital personnel. I had hip surgery July 24 , Dr. Burke visited me before the operation and after the operation, you can tell he really cares about his patients and is a perfectionist, and I feel great already!

Follow up from earlier review for Dr. Burke
I found his staff to be awesome after about a year when I started activity back to normal I started feeling extreme pain went back to the office. They figured it out. It was my back adjusted my activity now I’ve been out skiing for three weeks. Has Dr. Burke told me I could. My problem isn’t necessarily with my hip. It’s more with my back but I want to thank him and his staff for the kindness that they showed me. I had a total hip replacement.

The Best!
After suffering with hip pain for almost 3 years, Dr. Burke is definitely a miracle worker. He did a full hip conversion and now I can walk again. 5 months prior to surgery, I could hardly walk, the final months before the surgery I was in a wheel chair. It has been a year now and I am going for my final follow-up appointment. I am a new person with the use of legs. Thank you, Dr. Burke you are truly a miracle worker.

I had both knees replaced in 2014 and no problems. I had first class PT at Mariners by Jason. Burke and Jason were both responsible for the great outcome. If you have your knees replaced great surgeon and physical therapist are critical for long term success. Do not scrimp on either and follow their advice closely.

It is been 7 years since Dr. Burke did both my hips at the same time. Yes, both at the same time. The physical therapy group in Boca Raton, could not believe I walked into rehab one week later without a walker or a cane. No matter where Dr. Burke practices, Florida, Texas, California etc. I will travel wherever to make sure Dr. Burke does my surgery. Based on my experience he is the best. Thanks Dr. Burke.

Dr Burke and his PA Assistant Jeannette Owens are a great team. They did a removal of pins from a previous operation (by another surgeon) and hip replacement. I was walking within hours after surgery and with no walker or cane in 4 weeks. Would highly recommend this team.

Excellent results after an anterior total hip replacement due to severe arthritis. I work at Holy Cross Hospital and Dr. Burke was highly recommended not only by my Orthopedic MD but also by my colleagues in the Rehabilitation department who work with all of the surgeons. I am pain free and back to performing all of my pre arthritis activities. I would highly recommend Dr. Burke and his office team.

I had total left hip replacement, with the anterior approach, at Holy Cross Hospital on August 26, 2020. Dr. Burke did an amazing job! I was up and walking with a walker within a few hours of the surgery and went home 13 hours after surgery. One month post surgery I am walking on my own. Kudos to the wonderful Dr. Burke. Kudos to his team (especially Danielle, P.A. Kelly, and Morgan) who took excellent care of me, returned my phone calls/emails, and answered all my concerns both pre and post surgery.

Excellent experience. After suffering for over a year with hip pain and dysfunction, I was immediately free of pain upon awakening from surgery. Within one week , I was walking without any assistance from a walker or cane. My physical therapist was amazed at how quickly I recovered.
