Bruce Burton MD, Family Practice/Geriatric Medicine
Home Page
 
I am a solo Family Physician. I have a private practice in Corydon, Indiana. My office is located in the Doctor's Office Building next to Harrison County Hospital. I see patients of all ages and cover the whole spectrum of primary health care. Some of the problems I commonly treat, just to name a few, are heart disease, bronchitis, diabetes, infections, injuries, lacerations, digestive problems, menopause, contraception, rashes, thyroid disease, fatigue, pain, and depression. I also am a specialist certified in Geriatric Medicine. As a geriatrician, I deal with common problems associated with aging. As our population ages, many more people are facing problems of getting older such as arthritis, insomnia, and memory loss. I am here to help with these and other problems more common with aging. My practice is oriented toward prevention, especially with regards to cancer and heart disease. You can schedule a yearly physical exam, or a routine gynecologic evaluation through my office. I perform minor sugical procedures in my office such as removal of skin cancers and moles. I also treat other common skin conditions such as acne in teens. I treat sports injuries in students athletes as well as in weekend athletes. Students involved in sports can schedule a sports physical through my office. As a solo family doctor, I like to emphasize the very personal attention my office gives to each one of our patients. I will be your doctor, and each one of my staff will be focused on helping you. The long term doctor-patient relationship is very important to me. I want to be a partner with you in meeting your health care needs. If you have any questions about my practice or what I do, please call my office at 738-3293. If you would like, we can set you up with an introductory appointment just to go over how we can assist you in staying healthy.
Daily Health Tip:
Who let the reptiles out? If your child brings home a lizard, turtle or a snake, put it back outside where it came from. Children should not be allowed to play with reptiles, nor keep them as pets. Reptiles can spread life-threatening infections to both children and adults and are best left outdoors.
