John R Burk

He doesn't talk at you but rather talks to you and he actually listens. His vastness of pulmonary really shows through his ability to treat his patients.

Too busy to see his existing patients. He treated me for lung cancer and now I can’t see him because he spends all his time helping COVID patients who refuse vaccinations. New Dr. found more cancer. Thank you Dr. Burk for ignoring my needs.

I have been very impressed with Dr. Burk and his PA'S ever since I have gone to his practice.

Dr John Burk took the best care of my father for years. His dedication, professionalism and doctoring skills managing his pulmonary medical issues kept him alive until 94 years old. Without Dr. Burk, he would have died years before. Thank you Dr. Burk for your extraordinary talents that surpass the bar always.

Most careful and gave me exactly what I needed. He ran every test to make sure I was treated for the correct disease

Having a chronic lung disease is not something you wouldn’t wish on anyone in life but that is my situation and I have had many doctors but Dr. Burke stays true to who he is he is blunt but he does it because he wants you to be better and if you’re offended by the truth then you need To make some kind of change anyways I read these reviews can’t help but think at sometime or another I have these same thoughts. BUT. The truth is Dr. Burke loves so big that he doesn’t know how to be anything but transparently honest that is why I will continue to go to my treatments and try to do all the things I need to do to be here with my son and wife. The office staff is not as inviting or friendly as you would think but they have 25 things going on at once and trying to juggle professionalism , sensitive information and take care of other tasks so I do not think it was over the top negative. The reality of the situation is the nurse practitioner is amazing and most of the time they are the ones doing the consistent care when the doctors are overworked and Dr. Burke has the best nurse practitioner in the business Having a chronic lung disease is not something you wouldn’t wish on anyone in life but that is my situation and I have had many doctors but Dr. Burke stays true to who he is he is blunt but he does it because he wants you to be better and … More

In March of 2019 my heart failed during my sleep and I stopped breathing. After they arrived it took EMS got me back. I was in a coma for 8 days. Dr. Burk was so kind to my family especially my wife. He was down to earth and really cared, talked to me and not just at me. I can't say enough good things about this man. He gave my family hope. He helped me discover what happened and that another Doctor had failed to tell me I had sleep apnea which played a huge role in me dying. He is amazing. It's been a little more than a year, I got out of rehab I am back to work, I have some brain damage but am able to function well. I have remodeled a kitchen sold a house and restored a car. Most importantly I have spent more time with my family. I owe much of this to Dr. Burk. God bless you we owe you so much. In March of 2019 my heart failed during my sleep and I stopped breathing.

He was so kind and helpful. Other Doctors have been pushing pills at me for years and I only felt worse. He explained my condition in a manner that was easy to comprehend without being condescending. My life is finally getting better.

After being in Harris Hospital for 4 days under Dr Burke’s care he released me with appointment to come back as an out patient on October 1, 2018 for a lung biopsy which he did. While in the hospital I had chest X-rays, CT scan & thorancentis to draw fluid off lung and a nerve was damaged. None showed any cancer cells after being reviewed by Radiology Associates. I had biopsy down windpipe where he biopsyed a lymph node and lung. This showed no cancer. I was to follow up with an appointment with Dr Burke. He couldn’t see me for 3 weeks. I was in so much pain I called his office to try to get earlier appointment or something for pain. The woman I spoke with was very rude and condescending. She said over & over & and over that I shouldn be having pain, she just couldn’t understand how I could be having pain. Said “you don’t have cancer” and by the way I don’t think we take your insurance. I was in tears by the time I got off phone with her. I started looking for another doctor but all the while the pain was getting worse. I finally got another doctor and had more X-rays, another CT scan, a PET scan, another biopsy by someone who knew what he was doing and was diagnosed with lung cancer. I would never recommend Dr Burke to anyone and you can read my hospital report on the Harris Fort Worth page website. I have suffered with severe pain for months due to negligence and am facing a lot more. Thanks a lot Dr Burke. This incompetence is probably due to the fact that I am 78 years old and I believe seniors are being weeded out. Cancer should have been found while I was in hospital under his care.

Dr. Burk visited me while in the hospital. Was very pleased. That was just last week

Professional, caring, through. Knowledgable and explains things well.

Needs to retire. Most negative, unhelpful doctor that I have ever seen. Horrible bedside manor.

Upon arrival the reception area had a very pronounced sewage backup smell ( yes this had me concerned) I asked the receptionist about it and she acted as if it was a shock there was an odor. So I thought it was a fluke. At the same first appointment dr burk ( whom I did not request) was in the office but decided minutes before my arrival that he had to leave ( although for the next 30 minutes the staff joked he was in the back parking area smoking I heard one nurse say to the other "why did he leave "and the other said "he didn't leave he's outback" ) hushedly about how he was still in the office but outside with whatever the issue was. The staff was very apologetic and found another doctor in the practice that would see me within an hour of my scheduled time. He prescribed a sleep study. He was attentive and I assumed he would be my dr from then on . Then... First sleep study no reminder calls But at 5 pm that day I recieved a call to see if I would mind not coming in because they were shorthanded! Nope not gonna happen I said I had rearranged my schedule and needed to and suddenly I could go. On the second sleep study I asked if they knew my appt date. The nurse at the study facility looked it up and gave me a card with the time. The day arrived - no reminder call but I took the day off from school and arrived only to find it was not the date. (reception stench is still present) I wait 2 more weeks received what I assumed was a text I skimmed it but didn't really read it - just showed up on time ... no ... dr ... Burke .... same stink in reception ... I asked for my files I no longer want to waste my time and I don't trust this practice . I was told to fill out a form of release. I did -then was told I could not get them until the doctor ( Burke) read the raw material. I've never met him why would I let him read the raw material and why can't another office... I asked if I could get it Tuesday she said no try end of the day wed. . I do not think this is a clean facility. I do strongly suspect that the sleep study and doctors office -while not in the same building and miles away -are owned by dr burk since his wife's paintings are all over the sleep facility ... it's a racket! I can not get the data unless I use it and dr Burk ! I would not trust any raw material that doctor read! He and his company are not reliable . He may be a great doctor if time is of no import to you but his inability to meet his appointment or have someone cover for him is a shame. I Have wasted 2 nights of a sleep study, 3 office visits with only one actual dr sighting and I'm screwed -my insurance will not allow a second set of dr /sleep studies and pay for it for my sleep issues because services have been rendered I just can't get the darn results I don't have time for missed appointments. Good luck if you proceed in using this doctor I plan on turning my issue over to the AMA Shame on this office. Clean up your act figuratively and literally Or get someone to cover ! As the video says I ain't got time for dat!

Terrible! Horrible attitude and very negative. Not sure why he is still practicing. He seems to hate his job and did nothing to help. Worst doctor that I have ever seen.
