John Burns Plastic Surgeon M.D.

Dr. Burns is an excellent doctor and surgeon, and so motivating and encouraging. He truly understands our issues with obesity and that we not only work on our weight loss journey; but that we need to work on our body journey. He is very thorough in explaining what he will be doing and providing information of what you can expect; but I feel very confident and safe due to his knowledge and skills both before and after.

Dr Burns wants us to look our best, understands that some of us cannot do everything at once and works with you to complete that body journey.

He was referred to me and I will tell you that I will refer everyone I know to Dr. Burns and his Excellent Staff.

I was referred to Dr. Burns by my primary care physician/nutritionist after my lap. band surgery. Dr. Burns was very careful and explained my surgery to me in great detail. I found him to be extremely personable and I felt completely comfortable. He has a protocol which he follows but he really listened to me. He made sure that my weight was stable before surgery and called my doctor before surgery to let her know what we were planning. I received a very complete folder of information explaining the tummy tuck procedure and the before and after instructions.

Dr. Burns did a great job and my recovery was quicker than I expected. He has a wonderful surgery center and his staff was very helpful. Dr. Burns is in a large practice and one of his partners called me back one night and when I called with a question. His partner was extremely nice and helpful.

I plan on having more surgery with Dr. Burns in the near future and highly recommend him. I would also note that it has been much easier to keep my weight off after the skin and fat was removed from my abdomen.
