Dr. Burke was a great listener and communicator. She had a student MD do the pap/pelvic exam and she supervised the whole process all while interacting with me the patient and making sure I was comfortable with the MD doing whatever he was instructed or suppose to do for his training. I love Br. Burke for her bed side manner and her ability to help give back and teach general practice doctors in her field better ways about Pap smears and pelvic exams. It was truly a great experience for me.
