I just had a total knee replacement and was told to go to Burke. Best decision ever. I have been to four star hotels that have not treated me as well as I was treated at Burke. I stayed in 1North. I consider myself possibly the worst patient any doctor can have. I hate people waking me up and I barked at every nurse that came into my room for anything. They remained so pleasant it was crazy and it was a genuine pleasant not a false face. One the night I arrived I had a panic attack and Frank got a woman named Loretta Woods to sit with me all night to put me at ease by just letting me know that I was going to be fine. Nurse Grace was very nice but stern. When you needed anything she made it happen. Lori-Anne (probably not spelled correctly), Daisey, Zaneth and all of the nurses in 1North were perfect. The therapist were equally perfect. Grace, Danielle, Jason, Jessica are not letting you leave until you are ready. Special thanks to Grace. She made me feel like family. I will actually miss my rehab center. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH Although I will not I feel like I can run right now.

My sister was a patient in February 2014 for rehab. She is recovering from heart bi-pass operation and a stroke. The stroke left her almost blind in her left eye and she had problems with her right eye even before she went to Burke. We asked the doctors and social worker before her rehabilitation started to evaluate her vision and subsequent rehabilitation.problems which would have certainly helped their understanding of her true condition The therapy personal people did their work well as they could not knowing her almost blind condition and helped her ambulatory condition improve. Most everybody else in the facility did a fine job. What I found disturbing was the habit of the coronary rehab. areas habit of circling many of its patients around their nurses station for hours in their wheel chairs just steering and being bored. Some needed to be feed but after that would still remain looking at nothing but the nursing station instead of resting in their bed to watch TV or answering their telephone calls from their love ones.

This review comes very late....My Dad was a patient at Burke. He suffered from pulmonary disease, COPD and Emphysima. Burke saw that he still had a will to fight for his Wife of nearly 50 years, his 5 children, and 11 grandchildren. They provided daddy with the comfort and push he needed at the time. Old-school raised, he surprised us all, and even himself, when during a visit, he announced that he was taking a meditation class and had to cut the visit short. Burkes entire team worked cohesively to insure that my dad felt cared-for and supported him during the various stages of acceptance. And when the science simply wasnt there anymore, they supported his decision to live out his final days his way. Daddy passed away knowing that the medical staff provided him with every chance to enjoy a full life until his time here was finished. Thank you to all at Burke!
