I recently underwent a 3000-graft FUE hair transplant with Dr. Burka and his exceptional team, assisted by the ARTAS IX robot. This was my second FUE procedure, the first being in Turkiya in 2014, and I can confidently say that Dr. Burka and his staff exceeded all expectations.

From the moment I walked into the clinic, the professionalism, care, and attention to detail were evident. Dr. Burka took the time to understand my goals and delivered results that went above and beyond what I had anticipated. His team—Sarah, Javier, Sole, and Vane—were incredibly patient, skilled, and meticulous in their work, ensuring every bald spot I wanted addressed was filled with newly grafted hair follicles.

The dedication of this office is unmatched. They reserved the entire day for my procedure, and Dr. Burka, a board-certified general surgeon, personally performed the surgery with the assistance of his highly competent staff. Their teamwork and focus on precision were remarkable, making the experience smooth and comfortable.

Having compared my experience with friends and family who’ve had transplants in both the U.S. and Turkiya, I can confidently say no doctor or team can outperform Dr. Burka and his staff. They’re not just professionals; they’re artists dedicated to their craft.

If you’re considering a hair transplant, look no further. Dr. Burka and his A-Team set the standard for excellence. I highly recommend them for anyone seeking the best care and results.

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience from start to finish. Initially, I consulted with 7 different hair transplant clinics in the NoVa/DMV area and felt that Dr. Burka was the most understanding and least salesy. During our initial free in-person consultation, he really took the time to listen to my unique situation and carefully explain all my options to achieve my goals (In comparison, most others offered virtual or rushed in-person consultations with cookie-cutter recommendations of ~2000 graft FUE and no supplementary treatments). Further, Dr. Burka’s holistic approach - including medication and specialized Alma TED treatments prior to the surgery - have really improved the efficacy of my hair transplant. Even if you live farther away from his clinic (I live ~45mins away) you won’t regret the extra travel time.

Now about the hair transplant itself: I did a 4500 graft FUT which is relatively more gnarly with the incision. Dr. Burka was very meticulous, and his team ensured I was comfortable throughout the day and felt as little pain as possible. The techs who harvested then placed the grafts clearly knew exactly what they were doing and were very friendly. They actually harvested more grafts than we anticipated, but didn’t rush anything and stayed until past 7pm to make sure everything went smoothly and all the grafts were placed correctly. Everyone involved was super professional and went above & beyond to make sure I was comfortable and that I’d get the best results possible.

My followup appointments for the first hair wash & stitches removal went smoothly since Dr. Burka provided very clear instructions that I followed. I’m about 3 weeks post-surgery now and everything seems to be going according to plan. I was expecting more shedding of the newly implanted grafts at this stage, but the ALMA TED treatment I got on Dr. Burka’s recommendation seems to have minimized the shedding. I’m very grateful for his uniquely well-informed advice (no other clinic in the area provided me this insight) and look forward to seeing results gradually over the coming months.

Last but not least - Dr. Burka’s team is super talented and friendly. Sarah and Valerie are awesome and make me feel welcome every appointment. I can’t thank you all enough for helping me restore my hair and confidence. I look forward to coming for routine checkups in the following months!

Dr. Burka has been wonderful! Always answers his calls.  Very responsive and fast!  His staff is on the ball.  My procedure was June 2024 and I just had my 6 month follow up.  Very happy with my results so far, and I shiuld expect to have even more growth over the next 6-12 months.  The techs in June 2024 kept me entertained during the entire procedure and were very kind and thoughtful to pain and hunger and bathroom breaks.  Valerie at his front desk is amazing.  Always smiling and very kind to me in every interaction!  Wonderful all around!

Dr. Burka and his staff did an amazing job of explaining all of the options for hair restoration and the pros/cons of each. They listened to my questions and needs and helped design a specific treatment plan without prescribing or forcing any specific procedure. Additionally Dr. Burka responded to my email questions prior to choosing to work with him. Highly recommend just for a consultation and certainly for any treatment as well.

Dr. Burka is an excellent surgeon! I’ve tried many of his Medspa services including Daxxify and EmSculpt. I’m very happy with the results!
