Be Careful if You Plan on 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.
