I think Dr. Burkholder is fantastic! She is very knowledgeable, compassionate, listens well, and I have trusted her with my eyes. I have recommended her to several people. She identified and cured my uveitis and macular pucker when two other practices could not.

Dr. Burkholder was excellent and her fellow ? [staff] I believe, was superb. He spent approximately 30 minutes with me, was thorough and knowledgeable. Then Dr. Burkholder spent another 10-15 minutes and both addressed all the issues in depth.

Dr. Burkholder was very personable and kind.As this was a referral from my regular eye doctor, Dr. Burkholder told me her opinion with regards to the question my regular provider asked, and expanded on her comments in a manner I could understand. She also said she would confer with her associates. She prescribed a chest x-ray and blood work and told what she was looking for from those tests. I have a follow up visit in 6 weeks.
