As a former walk-on college football player at Notre Dame during the “Rudy” era, and later as a New Orleans resident during Hurricane Katrina, facing these unique challenges equipped Dr. Michael Burgdorf well to become a surgeon. 

Determination is the foundation of his lifelong mission to constantly improve the patient experience and is just a small part of the reason why women from all over Tennessee seek his expertise, especially moms. 

As a father of four, Dr. Burgdorf shares his unique perspective as a surgeon in his book The Mommy Makeover: Restoring Your Body After Childbirth to give new moms considering surgery access to accurate information without leaving their baby’s side.

ABOUT MEET THE DOCTOR 

The purpose of the Meet the Doctor podcast is simple.  We want you to get to know your doctor before meeting them in person because you’re making a life changing decision and time is scarce. The more you can learn about who your doctor is before you meet them, the better that first meeting will be. 

When you head into an important appointment more informed and better educated, you are able to have a richer, more specific conversation about the procedures and treatments you’re interested in. There’s no substitute for an in-person appointment, but we hope this comes close.

Meet The Doctor is a production of The Axis. 
Made with love in Austin, Texas.
