    Of all the doctors I've seen regarding my GI Issues (and I've seen a lot), Dr. Burtrum has been the ONLY one to figure me out. She has always, and I mean always, listened when I've come to her with concerns. She may be a general surgeon but the effort she has put into my very confusing case and the care she has continued to provide, has made her the best GI doctor I have encountered. No one can match this woman's heart, compassion, tenacity, or intelligence. To have stumbled into this woman's care, was by far the best blessing any ER visit has ever provided. My sincerest respect and admiration to Dr. Catherine Burtrum and her staff. I truly owe them everything.

    The appointment was a complete waste of time, because when I made the appointment it was suppose to be for a recheck/ultrasound which I explained when I called. Instead I show up to see the doctor and she seemed confused as to why I was there. Then she looked at the images for what I think was probally the first time, and says she'd needed a repeat ultrasound to compare. So I was very annoyed. This is the second timeI was sent to her office for basically no reason, because what needed to be done before hand didn't get done, because the people who are making the appointments aren't making them for what is needed. There's a lot of miscommunication going on, and it's getting ridiculous.

    Of all the doctors I've seen regarding my GI Issues (and I've seen a lot), Dr. Burtrum has been the ONLY one to figure me out. She has always, and I mean always, listened when I've come to her with concerns. She may be a general surgeon but the effort she has put into my very confusing case and the care she has continued to provide, has made her the best GI doctor I have encountered. No one can match this woman's heart, compassion, tenacity, or intelligence. To have stumbled into this woman's care, was by far the best blessing any ER visit has ever provided. My sincerest respect and admiration to Dr. Catherine Burtrum and her staff. I truly owe them everything.

    The appointment was a complete waste of time, because when I made the appointment it was suppose to be for a recheck/ultrasound which I explained when I called. Instead I show up to see the doctor and she seemed confused as to why I was there. Then she looked at the images for what I think was probally the first time, and says she'd needed a repeat ultrasound to compare. So I was very annoyed. This is the second timeI was sent to her office for basically no reason, because what needed to be done before hand didn't get done, because the people who are making the appointments aren't making them for what is needed. There's a lot of miscommunication going on, and it's getting ridiculous.

    I was told my breast biopsy would be uncomfortable but not very painful. It was so painful that I almost passed out. I did break into a sweat and my vision went blurry. I felt like a drill was being inserted into my breast. Definitely a 10 on the pain scale. I pray that if I need another biopsy I will be given something for the pain.
