Yes, yes and yes. Dr. Burton in my opinion is at the top of the list for any doctors. He has a pleasant professional demeanor. He lets you know that he is there for you and caring for your best medical advice and treatment. I went to see him for a second opinion for my knee and leg pain. Prior I had and was seeing another orthopedic surgeon for over eighteen months. I was getting pain shots and placed on drugs for my pain. The day I meet Dr. Burton he said within two minutes that he knew what my pain was caused from. He dire... read more

Dr Burton is my regular ortho doctor. He is a good listener which I love. He gives you all your options for treatment including therapy and does not pressure you to immediately have surgery. I trust him to always give me the best advice on how to proceed.

Yes I would recommend Dr. Burton to all those inquiring about knee replacements. He might be one of the only orthopedics whom actually gave what I've truly needed to hear in two visits, to delay or avoid replacement surgery in my life. I usually push for replacements, now thanks to Dr. Burton I have new goal. To avoid having any knee replacements ever. He listens and tells how it is kindly yet till I finally understand, now, so thank you Dr. Burton. Through his referral inside the Arrowhead Orthopedics I will be given the op... read more

I saw Dr Burton for a consult on my hip. After reviewing xrays & examining my hip, he patiently explained my condition & my options and answered every question I had. When I'm ready, he is the one I'll choose!

I needed a knee replacement and searched the web for a Physician that was not only highly qualified but also one that listened, cared and would be there for me if I had issues following the surgery. I had experienced medication issues with my other knee replacement and was not looking forward to the second one. My original Dr. who performed the first one had retired so I had to go outside the network to locate another. It was a long process to get approvals along the way but after 9 months of phone calls and completing paper... read more

My first hip replacement with Dr. Burton in 2009 went beautifully and there’s been no problem with it. This year I needed the other hip replaced and I’m grateful Dr Burton is still in practice. I used to work at the hospital where he did my surgeries and I know first-hand of his excellent reputation. My experience from my first office visit with him this past July through my recent post-op appointment was perfect. His office staff, including schedulers, Medical Assistants and Physician Assistants, are professional, efficient... read more

Horrible bedside manner on initial visit. Follow-up tele-med appointment was worse! Left me hanging on text for 30 min. Had to call his office to get him to complete visit. His Hemet office was sent my records 3 times and 1 time to his Redlands office. Staff was horrible and not customer friendly to look for/find out disposition of my records! After 8 months of waiting (allowing for Covid...) Still nothing accomplished except for a total of 3 calls to ask if I was still interested in having surgery!!! With my 40+ years of ex... read more
