Never in a million years would I have thought I would actually enjoy a visit to the dentist. But after finding Dr Burk's office several years ago, that all changed. I am so entertained when interacting with Dr Burk and Holly, and honestly everyone who works there. I never feel anxious or judged for not flossing (I know, I know I should..) I've never waited for more than a few minutes at the front desk. Not only is the whole team good at what they do, they act like a true family and I feel welcomed with open arms.

Dr. Burk has taken care of our entire family! After being new to the north Austin area, my research of dentists led me to Dr. Burk. We were not disappointed. He took thorough x-rays and talked me through the process. He referred us to an oral surgeon that he's worked with for 20+ years for my son's wisdom teeth and an orthodontist for my daughter that his own hygienist uses for her kids because they are the absolute best. Like many of the other reviews say, I can confirm that he treated us like family. He has a conservative approach which means he doesn't suggest controversial procedures or work unless it is actually needed. He's not there to make extra money off of you. He'll deliver the truth. You'll find a warm and trustworthy experience at Dr. Burk's practice.

I was terrified of the dentist and would fight going unless I absolutely had to untiI I found Dr. Burk 6 years ago. My dentist anxiety is a thing of the past and I visit his office regularly. The entire staff treats you like family and you can tell they enjoy what they do, which helps to keep the mood light and enhance comfort levels. About a year ago, I chipped a front tooth and within 2 hours they got me in and had it fixed up like it had never happened. The repair/filling from that tooth recently broke again and they fixed it at no cost to me this time around, which was extremely generous because it was no fault of their own as it just happens to be a difficult place to keep fixed. I can't say enough good things about Burk Family Dentistry. I've had nothing but positive experiences with them.

I can't say enough about Dr. Burk and his staff. They are professional and friendly and make it an enjoyable event (if that is possible)! I recently had a dental emergency and Dr. Burk let me know he would be available if needed. He followed up with the endodontist to make sure I had been taken care of. This type of care is very rare these days and why I can't recommend them enough!

Dr. Burke and his staff are wonderful. My wife and I have been coming to his office since we moved to Pflugerville nearly 8 years ago. Holly is usually my hygienist and is a delight. A fun bunch, very honest and reasonable.

These guys are the best dentist I have ever been to. I am generally very nervous about the dentist but after 5 minutes with Holly and Dr. Burk I had forgotten all about my anxiety. I highly recommend them to everyone.

I've been in his office qu I tell a few times. Always greeted by name at the front desk. They get me in within 5-10 minutes. Extremely friendly friendly at the back office. They work together like a well oiled machine. Nobody is better than the others and it shows with the efficiency shown to patrons. I feel fortunate to have found them.
