Overall Rating

I am thrilled to post a review for Dr. Burkat. The smartest thing I had ever done was go to her for help. I was having trouble seeing off to the sides, and my eyes were sagging more and more. I finally decided to go in and see her. She was really sweet and her staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Once in surgery, I was made to feel comfortable, and felt no pain whatsoever. I did have bruising afterwards, but that was to be expected. Now I feel like a new person. I am extremely happy with the entire experience, and I would highly recommend Dr. Burkat to anyone wanting to change their life! Thank you so much Dr. Burkat. I can't thank you enough.
