Nicole, 30
I have never met another doctor like Dr. Kimberly Burke in my 30 years of life. When I say she truly cares about you and your health, I genuinely mean it. For years, I struggled with my weight, PCOS, acne, and constant flare-ups without ever understanding the root cause. My general doctor repeatedly prescribed birth control to manage the symptoms, but I knew I needed real answers.
​
I started seeing Dr. Burke after my sister, Grace, highly recommended her, and from the very beginning, I could tell she was different. She immediately ordered a comprehensive blood panel with a wide range of tests. Once the results came back, she spent an hour and a half with me going through every single result, explaining what everything meant and what my numbers indicated.
​
That’s when I learned I have Hashimoto’s in addition to PCOS and hypothyroidism — something I may never have discovered if it weren’t for Dr. Burke taking the time and care to truly understand what was happening in my body.
​
She helped me completely rethink my diet, guided me toward the right supplements for my autoimmune issues, and supported me mentally and emotionally through the process. Thanks to her care and expertise, I’ve lost weight, my skin is finally starting to clear up, and my inflammation has significantly improved.
​
Most importantly, I feel better than I ever have — both physically and mentally — and I owe so much of that to Dr. Burke. She is an incredible doctor and an even more incredible woman.

If you need an empathetic, knowledgeable, hard-working professional who will hear your concerns and answer them with clarity, look no further. I struggled for almost a decade trying to figure out what was wrong with my health. I met with so many doctors and tried a multitude of medications.
Nothing helped. Without Dr. Burke, I’d still be burning myself out every single day struggling just to feel normal on my best days. She caught on to my medical patterns immediately and helped me get the tests I needed to prove my condition (PCOS, now renamed to PMOS) and seek proper treatment.
Women’s health is still largely unexplored in standard medicine and in a space where I was crying out just to be dismissed and ignored, she listened. Under her support and guidance, I was able to regain a sense of control over my body and understand what my body’s needs actually were.
She has gone out of her way time and time again to care for me on my health journey over the many years, treating me as more than just a patient but like family. I have trusted her with my health, and that decision has made all the difference.

Dr. Kimberly Burke has genuinely changed my life, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart.
​
I came to her dealing with PCOS, thyroid issues, horrible eczema, and a cycle that was almost 50 days long. I had tried so many times to get real answers from regular doctors and just never felt heard. Dr. Burke was completely different. She took the time to do a full assessment and actually got to know me and my body — she never rushed me out the door or offered some quick fix.
​
The results speak for themselves. My eczema is gone, my thyroid is so much better, my cycle went from almost 50 days down to close to 28, and I've lost 10 pounds. Most importantly, I feel the best I have ever felt in my life.
​
Honestly, I recommend her to literally anyone I talk to about health. You deserve a doctor who actually listens, and you cannot put a price tag on that. Coming to Dr. Burke is one of the best decisions I have ever made!

I started seeing Dr. Burke last October for major G.I. issues, severe unexplained motion sickness, immune deficiencies, and food intolerances. She put hours, days and weeks into reviewing and deeply understanding my health history, taking the time to start dissecting these issues so we could start the healing process together.
​
We have done a number of things to help me, including acupuncture, diet changes, supplements, lab work, and GI Map testing. When I began seeing Dr. Burke, my white cell count was dangerously low, although no provider before had ever flagged this. Dr. Burke treated me with weekly acupuncture sessions and significant (yet gentle) changes to my diet, such as following an auto immune protocol and eliminating foods that were harming me. Within months, my white cell count increased from 2.7 to 4.5! This one incredibly significant marker of my immune health was finally in the normal range.
​
All of my other recent lab work has been phenomenal, and my immune system feels unbelievably strong. Dr. Burke has helped me tremendously when it comes to making better food choices and has prescribed me all kinds of helpful supplements tailored to me.
​
Above all else, the thing that I love and appreciate the most about her is her compassion. I have never worked with someone so compassionate, loving, patient, understanding, and devoted. I have felt deeply held, supported and cared for throughout our entire time working together. I don't know where I would be without her and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone I know.

Dr. Kimberly has been a true gem to work with over the past several years, every time I need something addressed she has a world of knowledge on underlying causes. Her expertise, and her kindness, are unmatched.
When I began seeing Dr. Kimberly in 2021, I was experiencing severe hair loss. During our consultation, she took the time to review my medical and overall health history all the way back to childhood, as well as my nutrition habits and supplement protocol. Over the next few weeks we made adjustments and started acupuncture. As a very special bonus, I became pregnant 6 weeks into her treatment, when I had been trying for over a year!
I’ve maintained regular visits to Peninsula Holistic Health, continuing acupuncture and making changes as needed throughout pregnancy, post pregnancy, and motherhood guided by Dr. Kimberly’s advice. Any issue big or small, from keeping labs in optimal range, to keeping my hormones happy & migraines under control, Dr. Kimberly always knows exactly how to address my needs.
I am now pregnant with baby #2. I absolutely credit Dr. Kimberly’s passion and true dedication to her patients successful health journey for making this 2nd pregnancy possible, and easy to conceive this time around!
