William R. Burden, MD, FACS

""More than I could have ever asked for." I came to Dr. Burden for a rhinoplasty revision, hoping to correct a previous surgery performed by a different doctor that hadn't met my expectations. When I arrived, it was clear that this experience would be different. Dr. Burden's professionalism and expertise were evident throughout. He explained that the procedure would give me the natural, balanced look I desired. His approach was thorough and put my mind at ease. One of the most memorable aspects of this journey was Nurse Joan. Her exceptional warmth and attention to detail were evident in every interaction. She took the time to address all my concerns, ensuring I was comfortable and well-informed at every step. The results have surpassed all of my expectations. The changes are significant and subtle, blending seamlessly with my features in a way that's impossible to pinpoint. I am deeply grateful for choosing Dr. Burden and Nurse Joan.. Their expertise and compassion have made this experience more than I could have ever hoped for."

"PROCEED WITH CAUTION IF YOU ARE HAVING SURGERY WITH DR BURDEN Where do I start! I saw Dr Burden for an initial consult and explained to him everything I needed and also showed pictures, I was specific on the type of implant and also where the implant should be placed which was under the muscle. This was my 3rd Breast Augmentation and 2nd lift over the years so I knew exactly what I was wanting. Well not only did he not go under the muscle on the initial surgery ( i thought i was only having one surgery) but he went over the muscle, did the lift and put my old implants back in stating my original implants were over the muscle so he could not do the implant exchange (never heard of this and speaking with other surgeons they are stating the same that is an infection waiting to happen), Which I know for a fact they were under the muscle as I have had confirmation from the previous surgeons and records. Well I got an infection and the stitches opened up. He stated they would heal and we have to go in to do the implant exchange now anyway. Second surgery, he decided it was best to go through the armpits, not only did I get an infection in my armpit but he put the incorrect implants in, after I did some research and found out what he had placed in there. Now once again my stitches opened tremendously and again I was in a worse position. My husband and I complained to him about the implants and he argued with us. The third surgery he did a scar revision as it needed to be closed. Well I ended up opening again much worse than the previous 2 times and I contacted their office with no response. I knew it was infected and not once did I receive antibiotics for the opening wounds. I ended up at the emergency department with 2 lots of bacteria infections, alot of pain and was put on strong antibiotics with an IV and also antibiotics to take home. The ER doctor was astounded that I was not put on antibiotics sooner. That is where I decided I am not going back to Dr Burden as I now have significant damage not to mention concaveness in my chest area and implants moving into my armpits. I believe negligence on Dr Burden's part. Not to mention I have made contact with many other ladies with the same issues that he has done to them, which lead me to now pursue restitution for all the pain and suffering and time off work and scarring and what I have been through mentally! I am worse off now than what I was when I first saw him for a consultation. I will not rest until this is brought to justice especially since so many women have had these same issues with him. I started the first surgery in August 2023 and had the last Surgery in December 2023 I am still struggling with all the issues. I have seen a new plastic surgeon and he will be fixing all the issues, he was also shocked at my outcome and what I had been through. Feel free to contact me with your story as I am gathering a lot of information from other patients. He can no longer get away with this! I am not going to go away quietly when he keeps doing this! The board did not review and agree and you always have an excuse for your work! There will be justice for what you did to me! Let me make that clear, all you need to do is check his past!! I did and wish I had checked before he did my botched surgery. I have always been happy with my past surgeries so I do not have outlandish expectations , I expect the correct implants and the correct placement ! I will be exposing all his botched surgeries nationally ! Not to mention my Surgeon does have all the information from surgical notes to actual physical and other people you have botched!"

"I had new implants put in two years ago. I had went back for my check up after surgery and one of my implants was too small. I had to pay extra money for him to go in and replace the implant. Then close to a year I got a knot or bubble in my implant. Went back to Dr Burden said it was scar tissue and it would be okay. I had a MRI and ultra sound on my breast before appointment. They said my implant was a defect in it. Dr Burden said it would be okay. Now going on three years the knot or bubble got bigger and my implant has got hard. I paid all that money for beautiful breast and now I have one that isn’t right. Now I don’t have the money to get it replaced. Very disappointed"

"The staff was better than Dr. Burden himself but that is still not saying much. I had to drive two hours for each appointment, which were absolutely pointless and could have been done by video call. Because I was not some botox barbie and this was my first cosmetic procedure, I was treated like a street rat. Weeks after the procedure I told Dr. Burden that my new 650 cc breast implants looked sad not perky and definitely not like I just had an augmentation, his response was "you probably could have used a lift". Which was news to me and something I would have opted for instead of the saggy large breast have now. He also made the pockets too large, specifically on my left breast so it now falls into my armpit when laying down. I'm 5'6" athletic and 135 lbs, they shouldn't look the way they do but he brushed it off like he was saving me because of scars. Definitely see another doctor..."

"Dr. Burden and his staff were amazing. He listened to what I wanted and did not push me to do what he wanted. Always with a smile on his face and he was very kind. He took the time to go over everything with me and let me know my options, I was on the verge of needing a lift but I was right on the line so we decided just to do the augmentation under the muscle. I got my breast augmentation done by him November 2021 and I am absolutely in love with the results! The day of surgery I decided to go bigger than we initially discussed and he was so amenable about it. I went from a 32A to a 32DD. Went in for my 4 month check up and did my before and after pictures. We were all super happy with the results. I got a pseudo lift in the process! I would recommend Dr. Burden to anyone thinking about getting breast augmentation done. He’s absolutely one of the best doctors I’ve met and seen. Thank you to Dr. Burden and all of his wonderful staff!"
