PATIENT REVIEWS

I recently moved from Orlando to St Pete and was searching for a Dentist who does Filler and Botox. I always went to my client who is a Periodontist back home because he was a natural, being so familiar with the facial structure and muscles. I found Dr. Burns through a Google search and I couldn’t be more pleased. Her office is beautiful, the staff is wonderful and Dr. Burns herself is incredibly kind, thorough and genuinely in love with what she does. As a perfectionist she took extra time to make sure I was satisfied (which I totally am) and was as fascinated by the changes she was able to make in helping me deal with the aging process but making it them look natural. I have already referred Dr. Burns to a few people, not just for injectables but for dentistry. She will absolutely be my dentist! One more thing I’d like to say is that she is very involved in giving back to the community and helping those who are not as fortunate as herself. I find her so easy and enjoyable to talk to, which is rare with Doctors these days. She is trustworthy, skilled and really, just wonderful. Thank you for the outstanding customer service!

This was the best annual dental exam and cleaning my husband and I have received in over 20 years of dental services. All of the front end office staff are exceptionally courteous and professional. Dr Shoopak, her assistant, and the hygienist are very thorough, using the latest technology and actually treated me with respect and dignity; and not just like some other patient or cog in a factory wheel. The entire experience was outstanding and I highly recommend this team of professionals to others. You will not be disappointed!

First of all- i almost never write reviews but couldn’t help but share my good fortune to have found Dr. Burns ! I’m very particular about my dentist and dreaded finding a new one when I moved here from Northern VA. I was SO lucky to have found her – from cleanings to a pain free crown, I have never had anything less than a 5 star experience with her and her staff. I have absolute trust in her and, because of that, recently decided to try her Facial Aesthetics services. I’d considered trying fillers for years but was always nervous to try. I knew she would take good care of me and I have had AMAZING results. I let her make the recommendations as to what would work best for me and I could not be happier. I’m turning 57 this week and because of her I think I can shave a few years off that number!! I had no pain or bruising and the results IMHO are better than ANY before & afters I’ve seen on the internet! If you are even thinking about it, please discuss with her – I wish I had a lot sooner!!!!

I was referred by a friend to Dr. Burns. Her office is clean, staff is attentive and wonderful. It felt good from the minute I walked in. The best part is my cleaning didn’t hurt ( I have very sensitive teeth). She is an amazing hygenist. Then I met Dr. Burns. She is honest (told me I didn’t need fillings when another dentist in town said I needed 3?) and I could tell she just cares. She is very gentle and kind. You will not be disappointed. I am so glad I found her. She is simply the best!

I have had several bad experiences with dentists and had stopped going for several years. I knew I had to do something as my gums had become sensitive and I was fairly certain I had some issues with back teeth. I was very nervous coming in – but left Karen Burns office feeling comfortable and confident that they are true professionals who care about their patients and make recommendations based on what is best for the health of your teeth. They carefully explained everything they were doing and the treatment plan moving forward. They are thorough with the exam and can show photos to help you understand any issues. A wonderful office! I feel lucky to have them and happy knowing my teeth will finally get the care they need.

By far the best dentist I’ve ever had. I skipped the dentist for 10 years due to an absolute fear of them. I finally caved in and made my first dentist appoint last year with them. The best decision of my life. This office has the nicest, attentive staff I’ve ever met. I had my consultation and xrays and they listed all the recommended work I needed and the cost for each thing up front, showing me costs with and without insurance. There was no pressure on what I had done or when I wanted to do it. They have always been able to get me in last minute and completely on my schedule. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

From the moment I called to set up an appointment to the time that I left I couldn’t have left happier. The office staff was amazing and made sure I felt comfortable. Dr. Burns was great. She seemed genuinely concerned and wanted me out of pain asap. She even sent me to a specialist for a second opinion to make sure my tooth could be saved. I am very satisfied and consider this dental facility my new dentist. Not to mention its high tech and super clean. Definitely recommend!

Dr. Burns and her staff are wonderful! Having been multiple times, each staff member continues to provide the most pleasant and comfortable dental experience of my life. Mixing delightful personality with gentle and efficient dental procedures, I walk away every time with tremendous satisfaction. I would encourage anybody to visit! Particular shout out of late to Dr. Kidwell and Nicole, as they have paired to form one of the best dental duos that have ever treated me!

My experience at Dr. Burns office exceeded all of my expectations. My first visit was for a new patient consultation with Dr. Anna Shoopak. During this visit, I had X-rays taken of my mouth and a comprehensive oral exam of my gums and teeth. Dr. Shoopak took the time to explain everything in a way that I could understand. She was very informative and even made several recommendations. Unfortunately, I did have a very small cavity in which I scheduled a follow up appointment for the filling. When I returned for the filling, Dr. Shoopak and her dental assistant Kylie welcomed me with a friendly smile and made me feel at ease from start to finish. Dr. Shoopak explained the options for numbing the area with local anesthetic and then began the procedure. It was seamless – I was not in any pain and it was pretty quick. She then examined the area to ensure that it was complete to perfection. Dr.Shoopak truly cares about her patients and results! THANK YOU to Dr. Shoopak and Kylie for going above and beyond. I would highly recommend this awesome duo to anyone!

I would give 10 stars if I could but I will just have to settle with 5 stars which I think they deserve more rating then ever. After moving to St. Petersburg Florida and searching for a dentist. I came across this facility. I had 3 appointment visits with this amazing dentist. My experience was awesome words cannot describe this place. I mean this is the best dentist I ever visit. The place is very clean with high tech equipment. The staff is very professional, friendly, and Curtisy. They did a great job with my treatment. The best thing of all they will show you what’s going on with your tooth or whatever proplems you maybe having rather then tell you what’s going on. Most dentists will tell you what’s going on but doctor Karen staff actually showed me step by step on what’s going on with my toothes which is the first time a dentist has ever perform that type of X-ray. This staff will give u the best treatment of care u need and any suggestions to better help you for healthier teeths. Trust me you won’t be disappointed. You will walk out feeling so confident. I am so satisfied with the results. I am proud to say this is my home dentist now. I will recommend this place to the whole Florida region.

I have lived all over the country. I have had several Dentist that were very good, kind and affordable. However, every experience at Karen Burns office is painless, professional even exciting. The staff treats me like family. The office is impeccably clean and comfortable. The skill set of all the staff members are the 1% of the 1%. All of the ones that worked with me were precise and efficient. In the past, it was always tedious to take time from my overwhelming work Day to make the trek to the dentist and go through the motions. When I go to Karen Burns office, I look forward to it. I had recently lost my father and was in a financial pinch. Their business manager assist me with securing a credit line to cover what my insurance would not. Best Dentist and staff in America!

I’m a regular patient of Dr. Burns and recently went in to get a front chipped tooth repaired. Dr. Burns and her team are amazing! They took the time to perfect the color and make it look natural. You would never be able to tell! I couldn’t be happier with the results. Their entire staff including the reception/front office team are so kind and patient. I will never go anywhere else.

I was very pleased right away. This was my first time here, I was impressed with the friendliness from all staff, the fast service, I did not wait more than 10 minutes from my arrival time (I made an appointment). The first exam was a new experience because there was some high tech items used and then the Dentist went over all the findings, the good and the bad. I would recommend this place to anyone!

If you are looking for a great dentist, this is the one. From the office staff, dental assistants, hygienists, and Dr. Burns – they all are friendly and genuinely concerned about your good health. I was a bit skeptical not having the greatest experience before, but they immediately made me feel comfortable. I also had to have a deep cleaning that scared me, but it was so much easier than I expected. Laura was a great hygienist. Now my family goes here and Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great dental office.

If you want a caring Dentist, go here. The front desk staff is so welcoming. Today was my son’s first visit ( my older son is already a patient) I just had to post this since it was his first visit. He was given a consultation and fortunately they were able to clean his teeth before heading back to College. I decided to wait and observe the waiting room. It was calm until a woman showed up with her daughter. She was rude to the staff and did not want to wait. They never lost their cool and were so kind to her. You will be treated with dignity and respect. No judgements. Dr Burns is an expert at what she does. I’m going to move our entire family there. We have a big one. Fascinating and wonderful Doctor who donates time to people in need. Her prices are reasonable too.

The entire staff is so professional and supportive. I went in with my mouth a complete mess and slowly but surely we are fixing everything. Dr Burns is amazing, compassionate and takes her time to make sure you feel like you know what you are getting done before going into it. They are affordable and offer fair options for treatment and payment. I would recommend Dr. Burns to anyone. By far the best dentist I have ever come across.

I just moved to the area and found Dr. Burns via Google reviews. I am so glad I did! Every bit of my experience there has been fantastic from calling to make my appointment to their very thorough first appointment process to the excellent cleaning. I left feeling that each person I spoke to was incredibly knowledgeable and cared a great deal. Plus, they have a great, comfortable facility. We all need to go to the dentist, why not go to one that is clearly a cut above the rest? (I mean, I am leaving a review about a dental visit; it has to be good!)

5 Stars. I’ve been going to see Dr. Burns for more than 4 years now. She has an incredible staff and a beautiful office. When I found her listed on my in-network and went in for my first appointment, I thought I had to be in the wrong place because there was no way I could deserve such wonderful treatment. After my first appointment, Dr. Burns and her team worked with me to make a game plan that fit my budget. I had an appointment today and after some mishaps with my insurance, they were still able to get everything worked out. I would give 10 stars if I could. Highly recommend.

I’m so glad I found this dentist. First of all, the office is beautiful – it’s modern, clean, and nicely decorated. The dental hygienist is very friendly and warm, so the appointment goes by quickly and is actually enjoyable. Dr. Burns comes at the end of the cleaning, and she is very friendly and thorough as well. They are happy to answer any questions and seem to genuinely care about the patient’s best interest. I highly recommend!

Dr Burns is simply the best and most caring professional I’ve ever had in the health care industry. Additionally the front office staff is top notch with making appointments, notifications, and billing with your insurance company. the hygienists are excellent at what they do, same goes for the technician staff. The office is clean and neat, great music while your work is being taken care of. I can’t give a higher recommendation. Visit Dr Burns and you’ll never go back to your old Dentist.

Dr. Burns is professional, informative and reassuring. I trust her experience and judgement and really feel like she gives personal consideration to each patient. I’ve been waiting for almost 10 years to fix an issue that concerns me, mostly because no other dentist seemed committed or sure of the right approach. Dr. Burns changed that and I’m super pleased with the result. The office staff and technicians are all 5-Star.

Thrilled to have my mercury filings both removed today by Dr Burns! She is cutting-edge, expert with such a calming, caring demeanor. My trips to the dentist are no longer dreaded complete with her team of kind hygienists and techs. I am appalled that another dentist in my past covered my childhood silver mercury filing with a composite, which is why I had recent decay. She safely removed and correctly cleaned out my tooth, with use of a comfortable dental dam. I was thinking it would be tough but the entire things went so well. In fact since we didn’t have to do a crown on my first tooth which would’ve taken another hour, she actually removed another mercury filing from tooth #2 and I have a mercury free mouth now! Very relieved, happy, rested (as I fell asleep during the second mercury filing removal !) , and grateful for cleaner health and a trusted Dentist!

I found this office because I was shopping in the store downstairs. The office is very nice and clean. The staff was beyond friendly and professional! The dentist even went over every aspect of my teeth with me, explaining what she was looking for and etc…, I was never left in the dark. She would answer my questions before I even asked them. After my initial exam and exrays I was able to get an appointment the next day for my cleaning! I would recommend this place to anyone. I am a self pay client, the prices are very responsible and they won’t force any treatment on you, and give multiple options.

I recently finished a long process of getting crowns on six of my front teeth. Dr. Burns and her associates did a great job. The teeth look terrific. With procedures and temporary bridges over the course of about six weeks, I was in the office quite a few times. Here’s the thing: I didn’t MIND GOING TO THE DENTIST. I actually kind of looked forward to it, even though a lot of the work was anything but pleasant. Her office staff and assistants are first-rate. I was a high-maintenance patient, I’ll admit it, but they took phenomenal care of me. Here’s the backstory: I was in need of major dental work recently – on my way to a nasty toothache – and, amid the COVID-19 crisis, Dr. Burns willingly treated me. Because mine was an emergency situation and she has limited office hours, I texted her directly and she was always prompt with her responses. Did I mentioned she’s a terrific dentist? Dr. Burns has an energetic but gentle demeanor, which is especially good for an anxious soul like me. She uses her patients’ names, which is one of those small things that really matters to me. (“You’re doing great, Eric.”) She lets you know what’s about to happen next. Janna, who has assisted on my procedures, is a calming presence and it’s obvious she’s a skilled assistant – even if, from the chair with my mouth open, I couldn’t see it. Dr. Burns’ practice is next level. The waiting room is classy and welcoming. I’m glad I found her – especially seeing as I needed serious dental work during a pandemic.

Very impressed and felt right at home. I was in search for a new dentistry office and found Karen Burns DMD through my insurance provider. I called, was able to get an appointment that week and thoroughly enjoyed my first experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is in search for a new office! The staff and Dr. Shoopak were so friendly and made me feel very comfortable the moment I stepped in

I had been looking for a kind, gentle, and personable dentist for a long time. Well, I found her! Dr. Burns was fantastic. She explained everything so well and made me feel I could trust her from the beginning. I also had a great experience during my x-rays with Janice. She was also so kind and personable. Will be referring others for sure.

Teeth are something that no one should compromise on . Dr Burns and her staff are very knowledgeable, professional and they took care of my dental issues extremely well , I am fully satisfied . Dr Burns personally comes and see patients . If you are looking to have your teeth fixed from cleaning to crown to filling to whitening , this is the place to come . Trust me you will never regret the money or copay spent here . I will recommend everyone to this practice .

Being new to the area, I was apprehensive about finding a new dentist. After finding Dr. Burns through my dental plan, I scheduled a new patient exam. Upon entering the newly decorated office from the elevator, I was greeted with friendly faces who showed me the restroom and coffee and water locations. After a brief wait, I was taken to an exam room, complete with a tv. I usually have trouble and pain with xrays, but Diana was extremely gentle yet thorough. Dr. Hurd gave me an exam and after finding no problem areas, scheduled a return appointment for a cleaning which I had this morning. Hillary did a great job! Thank you all for making my new patient experience an extremely positive one. See you all in October!

I’m a new patient but have been very impressed by Dr.Burns and her staff. Dr. Burns is thorough and patient and she gave me several options to consider for treatment. Her front desk staff is knowledgeable regarding insurance and really helps provide detailed information so you can make the best decision based on your coverage. Her office is clean, quiet and the equipment is up-to-date with is super important to me!

I can’t say enough about this dental clinic. They are meticulous with details and organization. It’ the most professional clinic I have ever been to. The quality and skill of care is 2nd to none. I even had other dentist tell me that Dr. Karen Burns is the best! If you just moved here like we did, you will be total satisfied in choosing this clinic for all of you families dental needs.
