  • Dr. Burns is truly the best! We love coming to see her. She is very thorough during our visits and always demonstrates compassion when examining and evaluating my boys. She is an asset to the practice and to the CHOP institution as a whole.

  • I loved that Dr. Sandy asked me, as my son's mother, what my concerns are for him. I felt heard and understood. We couldn't resolve the issue, but I was asked and that meant a lot to me.

  • I didn't realize how much time had passed until after the appointment. Dr Burns spent so much time with us, listening to my child's full life story, listening to my concerns and worries and fully answering questions. She was understanding, empathetic, and never rushed or dismissed me. She was able to answer every single question and I trust that if there was anything she didn't know, she would do anything possible to get the answer.

  • We love Dr. Burns. While we had only one question, she anticipated what was coming next for this stage for my child, and I was able to ask questions that I wouldn't have been able to anticipate. We've always loved that about Dr. Burns!

  • Dr Burns is amazing! We now live an hour away but continue to go to her because I trust and like her so much. She's wonderful with my children and is very patient and knowledgeable with all of our questions. Can't say enough great things about her, only wish the practice was closer to our new home!

About the Patient Experience Rating System

The Patient Experience Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions shown above from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score. We are committed to true transparency. However, to ensure the comments are fair and correctly attributed, we review each one before posting to the website. We exclude entire comments that disclose patient’s protected health information, are off-topic, or include other confidential or inappropriate content. Comments will appear on provider bios only if providers have a minimum number of comments. Comments are shared internally for education purposes to ensure that we are doing our very best for the patients and families for whom we are privileged to care. The comments are submitted by patients and families and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not reflect the views of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
