    I have read what other people have said about Dr. Burnett, and now I am going to tell you the honest truth about this Dr. Is he busy? Yes he is busy. If you check the surgical list you will see that he does more knee surgery's than any other doctors. When you go to meet him, just remember he is there to let you know how and if he can help you. He is not there to be your friend or entertain you. Is he good at what he does? In a word YES!!! He has replaced two knees for me over the last two years and I couldn't be happier with the results. But what you all have to realize when you sign up for a replacement, is that a great doctor is only part of it. You, yourself have to take the bull by the horns and work hard to bring back your movement, and not just for a number of weeks. This is an ongoing part that you have to take on "If you want your life back". I have mine back, and at 67 I'm looking forward to a healthy and happy seniors life. So all I'm saying is, don't blame the doctor if you are not working hard and doing your part in all this. I would refer Dr. Burnett to anyone who needs help like I did.

    I understand the mandate of Rebalance is to provide surgery in a timely manner. I waited almost 5 months for a hip replacement. It is my belief there is insufficient opportunity to discuss a medical condition with Dr. Burnett, since he gives a patient the feeling that he is too busy to impart any information about pending surgery, or after care. His staff was most helpful, but accessing information from staff members is difficult. I can't understand why emails are sent out with a one time passcode, and I wonder how many of his patients are confused and stressed by the videos, emails, and lack of appointment choices re: time and date. There is no doubt Stephen Burnett is a brilliant surgeon, but a little more "personal touch" would be helpful
