I would not recommend Dr. David Burack to anybody who need to see a Rheumatologist. He did not take care of me well as his patient after diagnosing me with Fibromyalgia in December 2016. In Summer of 2017 I called the office because I needed him to order medical equipment because my health condition had worsen. I spoke to his nurse about that I needed medical equipment due to experiencing difficulty walking. Dr. Burack told the nurse no and refused to order it. Continuing to speak with the nurse, she explained I needed to make an appointment with Dr. Burack. I spoke with the front office staff member and she scheduled my appointment in July 2017 for November 2017. Well, I received a shocking call in September of 2017 from Lori one of the front office staff members stating that Dr. Burack had canceled my November appointment. She could not explain why he was cancelling my appointment. I asked Lori why would they give me an appointment in July to cancel it. It was completely unprofessional and inconsiderate for Dr. David Burack to have a staff member to call me and drop my appointment stating "he did not want to see me any longer" as his patient. Lori did not even understand Dr. Burack's reasoning for taking it upon himself to cancel my upcoming appointment scheduled in November 2017. Do not waste your time and money on this doctor. Stay away from this doctor he is very uncaring, inconsiderate and mean.

Dear Dr. Burack, I left the most glowing feedback, the options allowed and I will add my words of PRAISE. I've been seeing Dr. Burack, for over 30 years and I've never considered changing, to any other Rheumatologist. Rheumatology is only chosen as a specialty, by very few doctors, because it's difficult and not as glamorous as other specialties. The majority of his patients are elderly and usually have many other health problems, so he works with many other doctors, to provide excellent care, of his patients. Dr. Burack truly cares about his patients. He's one of the few doctor's remaining, who isn't part of a huge Medical Group. Most doctors participate in large groups, because: (1) Because: They pay less rent (2) Because: They pool money, so they can buy outrageously expenses equipment (3) Because: They can refer patients, for often unnecessary Tests that their Group already owns them. (4) Because: They automatically get (2) two bites at the apple. (5) Because: The Group gets discounted Rates, for Medical Mal-Practice Insurance, which is spread across so many doctors. (6) Those doctors have one thing in common and it's called Greed. If you've ever wondered why, so many doctors are part of large Groups, you now know why. If you are looking for a Rheumatologist, you can't find one that better.
