“I met Dr. Burkhart several years ago when our older children were in school together. My one year old son was sick, and had been sick with antibiotic resistant ear infections, skin rashes, horrible stomach aches, serious constipation and blood in his stool. He was sliding down the growth chart. Our pediatrician had him on a large dose of Miralax to improve his symptoms and antibiotics to address the ear infections. It wasn’t working. Dr. Burkhart saw that we were in distress and immediately stepped up to help, as a friend, mother and doctor. We discussed his health, and more specifically his diet. After lengthy conversations and minimal blood work we finally had an accurate picture. Dr. Burkhart set up a plan which finally solved his issues. Thru managing his specific dietary needs he grew, gained strength, reduced his digestive and skin issues and is now on the top of the growth chart. Dr. Burkhart’s guidance changed my son’s development, happiness and health. We don’t know what we would have done without her. She is a compassionate, calm, kind person, a patient and thorough educator, good listener and an exceptional doctor.”
