Report
I was 10 minutes late but I was seen as soon as I got there. First for ex-rays then consult with Dr. O'Donnel. Both were enjoyable, not bad for going to the doctor

Report
Dr Burch and everyone here is to be commended on their professional behavior. Everyone I encountered was well informed and helpful. The people in X-ray were pleasant and efficient. Made me feel very comfortable. Dr Burch answered all my questions, made sure I understood his instructions and encouraged me to contact him with any further questions or concerns. Overall I highly recommend Universally Orthopedic.
