    None, Dr Burch has been treating me for 16 years. He is a very professional and excellent physician. Each visit is pleasurable and he explains what his exam and treatment will entail. Hopefully you will honor him in some way, but at least recognize his contribution to Prisma Health.

    Prisma needs to raise the compensation for its staff so it can retain enough people to provide adequate care. I waited 40 minutes after my scheduled appointment time to see my doctor. This was a waste of my time and insulting after I'd gotten many reminders to confirm my appointment and get there 15 minutes early. Prisma must offer better compensation so you have sufficient people to support the patients. Fewer administrators and executives, more providers.

    The doctor needs to order the blood work to be done before the appointment so that at the appointment he can discuss the blood work with me so that I know what direction I need to go because I am having symptoms that are very negative and those were not addressed. Thank you.

    There was a significant wait time, I would say. There was some kind of computer issue or something, and the lobby was full, and many of us were checking in for our appointments at the same time, and it was just a backlog. And then once we checked in, we still had to wait. I just think the wait was too long. We respect the doctor's time, and I think the doctor and staff should respect the patient's time as well. Thank you.
