I've had Dr. Burkhead as my doctor for 2 pregnancies and I always feel like I am his only patient. Excellent, knowledgeable and caring doctor!

I had a great experience with my pregnancy, labor, and post-birth with Dr. Burkhead. Wish I had the same insurance so I could return to him with this second child.

I used him for two pgs, the first resulting in a csection that was done by someone else. (They could not tell me that my baby was posterior, and that is why I was laboring for days with no progress. The nurse on call also told me that amniotic fluid does not smell, which the nurse in L & D told me was not true.) He told me that I could VBAC for my second, but I had to do it on his timetable. My son had different ideas and lost his calendar, and I was forced into an unnecessary surgery just because the date changed and the doctor didn't feel comfortable waiting, though we were fine according to all of the NSTs I went through and the biophysical profile and my son's 9/9 APGARS. I liked him, but I could never trust him again. My son wasn't quite ready to come out, and we were lucky that everyone was okay.
