About Me

My love for the practice of family medicine over the last 37 years is based on the relationships that I develop with my patients. 

Family medicine encompasses every aspect of life including the wonders of growing children; the goals, aspirations and disappointments of adulthood; and the challenges of old age. 

Life is often a roller coaster and my job is to help navigate the hard times and enjoy and celebrate the good times with my patients. 

My other goal is to aim for a healthy and long retirement for my patients utilizing preventive care medicine and best practice recommendations.  That means doing what is appropriate, avoiding unnecessary (and often costly) testing and educating my patients in shared decision making so they understand the reasoning behind the care they are (and are not) receiving. 

I received my medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and completed a residency at Sacred Heart Hospital.

I am married with 5 children and 2 grandchildren.  Along with hanging out with my wife and kids, I enjoy regular exercise including the gym, skiing, tennis, the piano, Sudoku and a good book.

08/11/2023
It was an excellent visit. My mother recently moved in with me. I established her with Dr. Burkowitz and saw how he treated her so well that I decided to move my care under him, which your office is 5 min from our home. He was very encouraging when he saw my vitals. But he continued to listen to me well regarding my arthritic pain and gave me another option for a prescription. I took it last night for my pain in my joints and it worked well. I appreciate that Dr. Burkowitz takes the time to take accurate notes so he is able to come back to assure I am receiving the best care. He is also pleasant and has a funny sense of humor. I believe that makes the work environment enjoyable for the staff.
