Similar to other poor rating below. Dr.Burra performed a surgery on my left knee. After the surgery he never saw me.  I went to the office and only PAs saw me. Tried to make an appointment to see him. Appointment told me that Dr.Burra's protocol is: he will see ONLY NEW PATIENTS. he will not see the patient after the surgery.  I am in pain after the surgery and i told the appointment desk. still he wouldnt see me.  I dont want any doctor who just cares about the people who will bring money.
