Burbank CA Chiropractor Dr. Charlene Thorburn Wins 2011 Top Doc L.A. Award

Dr. Charlene Thorburn, D.C., R.N. has been selected by Top Doc America as one of the “2011 Top Doctors and Dentists” in the Los Angeles area. Top Doc America is a research, information, and marketing company that conducts a nationwide awards program. Their purpose is to make it easier for the public to meet the most popular and qualified doctors in their area. Dr. Thorburn has been honored as being in the top 10 percent of the region’s best doctors.

The winning doctors were chosen based on popular ranking by patients on review websites such as: Web MD, Yelp, Rate MD, Health Grades, Physician Reports, DR.Oogle and other leading independent healthcare rating companies. Top Doc America also takes into account the doctor’s professional qualifications and reputation (such as education, board certification and spotless disciplinary record). Their skills in dealing with patients are reviewed, such as listening and communicating effectively, demonstrating empathy, and instilling trust and confidence.

Sally Connors, who attended a recent health talk of Dr. Thorburn’s, says: “After three weeks of adjustments from Dr. Thorburn, I have seen an improvement in the quality of my life. Since beginning treatment I no longer have as much sinus trouble, chronic cough, or gas pains, and my legs are finally strong enough to get me out of a chair without pushing off. My backache is much better also. I want to thank Dr. Thorburn for improving the quality of my life.”

Dr. Charlene Thorburn is a Board Certified Chiropractic Orthopedist, which is a specialist in chiropractic medicine requiring several years of postgraduate study. She is also a Registered Nurse, and served for twelve years as emergency room staff and a charge nurse at a local Medical Center. Her unique combination of experience in the traditional medical model, combined with intensive studies in the area of chiropractic and nutrition, make Dr. Thorburn’s healing approach very broad and thorough.

For the last two and a half decades, Dr. Thorburn has cared for the Burbank community and beyond and has donated her time and expertise in a variety of ways. From providing no-charge back and neck check-ups to company employees to help them stay healthy on the job, to educating seniors at adult centers on how to prevent osteoporosis and increase energy; to presenting wellness and nutrition talks at the local movie studios. Dr. Thorburn’s center sponsored the “Kid’s Day America” event and has raised funds for the YMCA, Salvation Army, Boy Scouts, and Burbank Temporary Aid Center.

Top Doc America not only locates doctors with the highest patient rankings, they also send out thousands of nomination forms to local medical professionals. The idea being that healthcare professionals are best qualified to judge other healthcare professionals. The peer review survey asks recipients to nominate those doctors who, in their judgment, are the best in their field – especially those to whom they would refer their own family members and patients.
