I don’t know what I would’ve done if I had not found Dr. Burkett. My dog was struggling for years and has seen many vets with no resolution. I felt confident about Dr. Burketts treatment plan after my initial visit and my instincts were right! We still have a long way to go before my Lilly is fully healed but she is way more comfortable than she’s ever been! Thank you Dr. Burkett and his lovely staff for taking such good care of my baby

This is a tricky one for me. First I will say the office staff is pleasant and professional. The dr., like others in the medical field, while not unkind, wasn't the type for easy conversation. I guess some would say reserved. I have a couple of concerns and that's what makes this review challenging. I was slow in getting the allergy serum once it was ready bc I live so far away. I finally opted to have it shipped. I think due to the holidays my request got overlooked but a simple phone call resolved that. My other concern bothers me a little more. When discussing the arranged allergy skin test, the doc never told me what materials they would test for and I didn't think to ask. The outcome is that Tucker was not tested for food allergies. We've had him on a special diet at the recommendation of our vet, but that's all based on assumption, not science. And since he's continued to suffer allergic reactions, I don't know if he is or isn't allergic to beef. Frustrating....the only solution would be to risk introducing meat products but is that wise since we are injecting doses of environmental allergens? Simply stated, testing for food allergens as well as environmental would have answered these questions definitively. I feel as lost as I did the day we went there.

Dr. Burkett is very stuck up. Barely looks at you to greet you. Very rude. Theres a receptionist there named Ashley shes very passive aggressive. With a little smile she gives you an attitude. She gets mad at you for not understanding her, but in reality she doesnt know how to explain things clearly. When she explains things its all over the place. Then gives you an attitude. Really disliked my experience there.

Went to Dr. Burkett for an allergy exam on my cat. They told me when I got there that they could not do an allergy exam because he was too young. Therefore they did a skin scrape to check for mites and found none. I spent $300 for them to scrape my cats fur and give me a flee preventative. Biggest waste of money I have ever seen.

My dog got some mysterious lesions on her face that grew exponentially over the course of 1 week and at the exact same time she also had some nasty, funky brown stuff in her ears. She was scratching them literally until they bled. Being the season down here in SW Florida, I couldn’t even get in to my own vet for months. I was calling around to ask if anyone would see her. 1st visit and almost $500, I go to a local Petco vet. She was nice enough, but hours there even though I had appointment was ridiculous. And no success treating problems. 2 weeks in, I end up at dog ER , 5 1/2 hours waiting ( I went in knowing that emergency animals came first) $680 there and no improvement in her condition. Return visit there and very nice doc suggested to see Dr. Burkett. Sooooo happy I did. 3 weeks in, her snout covered with lesions and the state of her ears horrendous. The smell coming out could knock you out walking into my house. First, I begged for them to get me in, they had mercy upon me and did. He is very kind and compassionate and professional. He diagnosed with inflammation issues and ear infection. After various meds from others, he gave me meds that worked in 2 days!!!!! 2 days!!! My poor dog was suffering so long, I felt so bad for her. 2 days after, she is playing and running around, happy camper!! Love these people! Highly recommended.

They treated my little Boba with love and care, and now that we know exactly what she’s allergic to, she’s getting allergy treatment tailored to her exact needs. I’m very grateful to Dr Burkett and staff, they’re so thorough and kind!

Pleasant enough doctor and office staff, but 215$ to tell me they can't freeze growth because it's too big. I could have sent a picture to him and been told that.After my initial survey response the vet responded referencing my "cat" and what I said about the assessment needed. In fact I don't have a cat but rather a dog. Second what I said is the other vet wanted to see if it was possible to freeze this off vs surgery given my dog's age or is it too big. My askwas could you not simply look at a picture to seeifot was too large. Finally the cost for the 15 minute exam to say yes it's too big was 50% of what the actual surgery cost. When you know most people do not have insurance for pets this cost vs effort seems out of line

I have a White American Bulldog that has a ton of skin issues and they have been wonderful with him. They have helped him so much. I was feeling hopless until I was told about this!

My dogs' primary veterinarian recommended Dr. Burkette for recurrent ear infections that did not respond to oral antibiotics and prescription ear drops. Rather than simply throwing more antibiotics at the problem, Dr. Burkette took the time to thoroughly review my dogs' health records and to speak with their primary vet. He cultured their ear infections and found that the strain of bacteria was resistant to the medications their primary vet had prescribed. He dispensed an ear solution with a steroid to reduce the inflammation and an antibiotic to treat the infection. I drive to Animal Dermatology & Allergy from Punta Gorda whenever my dogs have a recurrence. He is able to distinguish between a yeast and a bacterial infection, and prescribe the correct medication. Because my dogs have thyroid disorder and allergies to specific environmental triggers, they are prone to ear and skin infections. Dr. Burkette has provided extremely professional, competent, and helpful care to my aging canine companions. The staff are extremely pleasant and courteous. I am grateful to have Dr. Burkette within driving distance.

Professional staff and kind. It was a bit pricey, and I didn't get answers that I wanted, but they treated my dog well.
