Could not have had a better experience and forever grateful to Dr Burns and PCH.
The best peds offering in the region. I appreciate the attention to detail, staff engaging with my child and empowering them to answer for themselves, and the professionalism in the workflow: waiting room, MA intake, X-Ray Exam, Rooming, Doctor visit, dismissal.

My 7 month old got some X-rays taken and everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable!
We are so grateful for Dr. Jessica Burns and her team! They took the time to thoroughly evaluate our 19-month-old son and made thoughtful, well-explained recommendations. We truly felt included in his care plan, and they patiently answered all of our questions. As first-time parents, it means so much to us to have a doctor and team who are not only knowledgeable but also kind and attentive. We can't thank them enough for the care and attention they've given our son!

Jessica Burns is a wonderful and very polite provider/ doctor. She gives you her best knowledge on a situation in the case of the matter pertains too. I'm so grateful she is my son's doctor's. She gives me understanding if I don't understand the situation. Keep up the great job Jessica Burns you rock!
Not only did Jessica include my child in the conversation and let them know what they would do before touching my child, her students did as well. They all took great care to make him feel safe and in control Anne even make the appointment playful and fun. Very much appreciated given how stressful it can be for children with long medical histories.
Dr. Burns and the team are amazing. Spends time explaining recovery and importance of healing.

We had a wonderful experience with Dr Jessica Burns! She was very professional and thoughtful.
Dr Burns is amazing and I love how she remembers the little things about my child that don't have to do with her care, just her interests.
Dr. Burns has been amazing and so encouraging during what was a very traumatic experience for my daughter. Dr. Burns always made sure my daughter was comfortable, encouraged, and educated on her treatment and prognosis. I can't fathom how much more stressful the whole situation would have been without the care of such an incredible doctor.
I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr. Burns. She was remarkably skillful and an even better human being. Even though our issue is now resolved we will miss being under her care.
