I wanted to update on my post from several months ago on the poor surgical result and experience…read more(lack of reply to my issue) with Dr. Burns. It has now been approximately 8 months and still no reply regarding my issues from Dr. Burns or his office. I have since flown from Indy to Houston Texas and had my belly button revision. This is the first of what will be a two stage correction meaning I will travel again and pay again for a second revision procedure because of how poor my belly button was done initially. My current surgeon is perplexed by what exactly was done in my surgery with Burns. The only thing he can guess is that the incisions were closed with too much tension especially with the lower long scar he possibly took too much skin and had to pull the incision too tight causing the belly button to have constant pulling on my incisions. My long scar initially post op did start opening in a few spots which was told was normal and to put bacitracin on and keep it covered. Now I see this was also probably related to the the incision being closed too tightly. My low incision didn't heal great because of this as I said in my previous post but at least that could be covered with clothing etc. The revision has to be done in two steps since there was zero laxity left from my surgery with Burns. My new surgeon went in from the low incision and excised some of the excess scar tissue and took out the "outer circle incision" and has managed to actually tuck everything in (scar and incision) to be moreso hidden inside the bellybutton as new technique is done versus the antiquated "circle" around the whole outside of the bellybutton that Burns did. My next surgery will be to hopefully make the belly button smaller and tuck everything in further. My new surgeon didn't have the laxity at this point to work with requiring the second surgery I will need. To add my new surgeon who is truly an artist and updated in his techniques also completely revised my low scar and took out the widened areas that was caused my by initial incision being too tight and pulling open. He did this as a courtesy at no charge. After my next revision procedure when things are all healed up I will post before and afters - at this point I am still self conscious about it despite it being so much better that it was with Dr. Burns result. My new lower revised incision looks fantastic however and from week four was thin and you really had to look for it!!! He brought it lower and into my contour more... I really didn't realize how subpar my low incision even was as I was so focused on my poor belly button result. At this point I am out SO much money between my initial travel to Dallas for Dr Burns and two subsequent visits with Dr Burns again traveling from Indianapolis for him to attempt to "fix it." Airfares, hotels rental cars x 3 Dallas trips. My initial request was asking Dr Burns to refund my tummy tuck fee portion of my initial surgery cost which went unanswered. With all of my other expenses and now my revision procedures x 2 and subsequent travel across the US I have/am spending a fortune to fix Dr Burns poor work. What I asked of Dr Burns was a small small amount in the big scheme of things. The fact that I have still not received any reply to my initial emails and request speaks volumes to me about Dr Burns and his true charachter. Like I said prior these people will seem over the top friendly and caring, and Dr Burns will email you and respond to your emails personally until you have a problem or concern and then it will fall upon deaf ears and you will not get a reply. If you are seeking a surgeon once again I would advise you to keep looking. I found Dr Burns on TikTok and truly wished I didn't fall for the cutesy comedy videos and fake persona that they/he portrays - I wish I would have went with someone who was spending their free time updating their outdated techniques. Someone who is more focused on my surgery than perhaps rushing through it to go make the next TikTok video. I will keep sharing my result and experience on this platform and others in hopes that it helps others. Dr Burns has recently renovated his fancy office and practice suite yet could not have the decency to refund a very small nominal amount of money for his mistake. That tells me all I need to know about who he truly is as a person and what his priorities are.

I had an appointment for a consultation and had to pay for when I booked it. Got there on time at…read more4pm and waited for an hour before anyone came out. And the girl was rather rude when she did finally come out because by that time the office was closed. Even the receptionist left before anyone came out... During the wait time I discovered the doctor I was seeing was basically finishing his training. Uh no.. I expected to see an experienced surgeon. I'm really mad I wasn't told this prior to making an appointment and paying. I would've never made the appointment. I searched for the doctor trainee and I couldn't find any reviews or before and after photos of anything he's ever done. Sorry not going to be someone's practice dummy. I am highly pissed I took off work early drove to the other side of town for nothing. And now that it's after 5pm I get to battle traffic for 45 mins to get home.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Dr. Vennemeyer and his entire team. From my very first…read moreappointment all the way through surgery and recovery, the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. To give some context I've only ever had C sections before this, so going into a completely elective surgery was honestly terrifying for me. But every single time I walked into their office, I immediately felt at ease. Dr. Vennemeyer is incredibly professional, supportive, and reassuring, and his staff are some of the warmest, most comforting people I've ever met. Even though I live out of state and had to travel for my procedure, the entire process was seamless. Their team was so accommodating with my schedule, and they truly went above and beyond leading up to surgery. They made sure I completed all of my pre-op testing on time and even reached out to other doctors on my behalf to ensure my results came in before my procedure. That level of care meant everything to me. Dr. Vennemeyer also provided extensive pre-op education over a hundred pages of information plus videos which answered every question I had (and even ones I didn't think to ask). It made me feel so prepared and confident going into surgery. The day of surgery was honestly such a calm and positive experience. I told my husband it felt more like I was walking into a spa than a surgical center. The entire team was so kind, gentle, and attentive. I thought I would be terrified walking into the operating room, but instead, I felt completely taken care of. I remember them making sure I was comfortable and cozy in the bed... and then I woke up. I'm only a few days post-op, but I already feel amazing thanks to Dr. Vennemeyer's multi-modal pain management approach. My recovery has been so much smoother than I expected. If you're considering a procedure and feeling nervous like I was, I truly cannot recommend Dr. Vennemeyer and his team enough. They made what felt like a scary experience into something calm, smooth, and incredibly positive.

I underwent a full mommy makeover in November with this office and I truly wish I had looked deeper…read moreinto post-operative complication management before choosing this surgeon. While the office is now attempting to frame my outcome as a normal healing process and unavoidable complication, my actual experience over the last several months tells a very different story. Following surgery, I experienced significant wound healing complications that required a wound vac, debridement surgery costing me over $1,000 out of pocket, antibiotics, Santyl, mupirocin, ongoing wound dressings/supplies, drainage issues, and prolonged healing complications beginning as early as December. At the same time, I repeatedly communicated concerns regarding increasing hardness, high-riding implants, asymmetry, discomfort, abnormal appearance, and progressive tightness. I sent numerous photos and messages over the course of months expressing that things did not feel or look right. Most of these concerns were repeatedly attributed to "drop and fluff," swelling, settling, massage, or needing more time to heal. Now that revision surgery is being recommended by other surgeons, it is extremely frustrating to look back at months of documented concerns that were continually minimized as normal healing. It is also frustrating to now receive lengthy explanations defending the management of my care rather than acknowledgment that perhaps more aggressive evaluation or intervention should have occurred earlier. The office has stated they offered in-person evaluations, but much of my follow-up care was intentionally managed virtually through photos and messaging, which I relied on heavily because I trusted their guidance. At no point was I made to feel the severity of my concerns warranted urgent intervention until things had progressed significantly. What has been most disappointing is not just the complications themselves, because complications can happen with any surgery, but the feeling of repeatedly advocating for myself while being reassured everything was normal despite worsening symptoms and mounting additional expenses. Between the wound vac, debridement, medications, wound care, time off work, emotional stress, and now revision surgery costs, this experience has been physically, emotionally, and financially exhausting. Patients considering a major cosmetic procedure here should strongly consider not only before-and-after photos, but also how postoperative complications and patient concerns are handled when things do not go as planned.

They are not inclusive of the spouse and may zero accommodations for you to see or support your spouse. The communication is terrible and they did not even explain to my wife the medication she was supposed to use, which resulted in her almost taking blood thinners long after she was supposed to stop. She had complications with retaining water and they won't explore other options, but merely drain her three times a week. Texas is a large state with very qualified professionals, just go elsewhere, you will be thankful you did. This place was an awful experience and I would never recommend it.

It took me 45 minutes to get here only to be locked out with no way of contacting anyone inside, waiting around for over half an hour outside, and then another 45 minutes heading back home. So in the end, after her surgery, I wasn't even able to check on my wife and see how she is doing. Absolutely ridiculous.

I am leaving two stars because the staff was kind to me in person. They were friendly,…read moreprofessional, and I believed they cared. I came in because I had an important interview and wanted help with the "11" lines between my brows. During the consultation, Dr. Lam told me that much of the wrinkling in my forehead was caused by ptosis, a condition I did not know I had. He showed me with Upneeq drops. The before and after was taken from the same angle, about 10 or 15 minutes apart. He was right. My forehead had been working to lift my upper eyelids, and it explained the lines, the tension, and the tired look around my eyes. He offered surgery as one option and Upneeq as another. Because my interview was that week, the drops made sense. The office knew about the interview. We talked about it. We even joked about using the drops for it. I ordered the Upneeq. I thought it would go to my pharmacy because the intake form asked for my pharmacy information. After I paid, I learned it was being shipped to my home from New Jersey. I live in Texas. My interview was in 5 days. I called and asked if anything could be done. I was told no. I called again and asked whether I could buy one or two vials for my interviews while I waited for the shipment. I was still told no. I was not asking for anything free. I was asking for help with the same issue I had just been diagnosed with, for the same interview everyone knew I was preparing for. That is what disappointed me. The visit felt caring. The follow through did not. After seeing the difference the drops made, I felt more self-conscious than when I walked in. I left knowing there was something that could help me look more awake and less strained for my interview, but I could not get even a small bridge supply in time. I will be going into that interview tomorrow feeling like I am at a disadvantage without the eyedrops for the ptosis I had just been diagnosed with. Dr. Lam may be right about the diagnosis. The staff may be kind in the room. But when I needed help after the appointment, I felt alone and unsupported when I really, really needed the help.

Dr. Lam is SO incredibly knowledgeable and trustworthy. I cannot recommend him enough to everyone…read more He is an AMAZING surgeon!!! I had two moles on my face surgically removed by Dr. Lam, one on my left cheek and on the middle of my nose. I felt very insecure and was bullied for it when I was growing up. I came into his office really nervous and honestly fearful of what he might say, and I left feeling confident and knew I had made the right choice picking him for my procedure. He uses Botox on your scar post-surgery (as it is healing) to minimize scar visibility afterwards. This does hurt because obviously poking scar tissue is going to be painful, but it was SO WORTH IT. When I say you can BARELY TELL that I had surgery on my face, it is INCREDIBLE. I used to always feel like I had to wear tons and tons of makeup to try and cover them up all of the time since I was bullied for it, and now I don't even wear makeup anymore half of the time. He has given me confidence again, self-worth, and he truly takes the time to make sure you look your absolute best post-surgery. I used the silicone cream and the patches on my face while it was healing. Definitely important to follow his post-surgery guidelines. I stayed out of the sun to make sure that my scars did not sun burn and made sure to wear a hat when I was outside. I wore the cream at night, and the silicone patches during the day on my face. I literally wore them to work and all around, because I knew that they helped in the end. I have to say that this man TRULY changed my happiness, and I will forever be in awe of not only the incredible surgeon that he is, but how he truly cares about his patients, he's honest, and he really knows what he is talking about. He is not going to lie to you, and he will tell you exactly how it is. If you are thinking about who would be the best fit for your surgical needs but you aren't sure who to choose, you should definitely pick Dr. Lam, as you will be in great hands.

However, once I was there, the doctor examined me, sold me a moisturizing cream, and then they tried to charge me more than what was originally quoted. In the end, I paid $125.00 for the consultation and $24.00 for the cream -- a total of $149.00. On top of that, I was prescribed the wrong medication -- something meant for bronchial issues -- when all I had was a simple skin infection with itching and pimples on my back. The doctor also incorrectly diagnosed me with a hemangioma (a benign tumor made up of blood vessels), which was completely false. I went to my primary care doctor, who confirmed it was just a skin infection and prescribed an antibiotic that cleared it up in three days. To make things worse, I later received another bill for $124.99, even though I had already paid everything. I do not recommend this place. I found the experience dishonest and unprofessional.
