Bruce M Freedman, MD

Fantastic surgeon! I had a freak accident and did severe damage to my shin. Severe meaning I know what my bone and muscle look like. Dr. Freedman not only put my leg back together but did it with more compassion and bedside manner than I have seen from multiple physicians combined.
He personally called me each day after my surgery until I came in for my follow up exam. He personally examined me and dressed the wound.
If I choose to have elective or need emergency plastic surgery ever again, there is no doubt who I want to do the work.

Please look at the reviews that are hidden for this «surgeon» specifically the one by Sam T. My experience is not an isolated incident. Sometimes it takes a long time to deal with a traumatic experience by a healthcare provider. Sometimes people cannot bear to even think about it much less do something about it. Loss takes time to accept. You grieve & that takes time too. Like all professions there are some of us who are truly gifted & invested in our profession & in this case their patient more than their sense of self. I received Dr. Freedman’s response which was to point out he is not the only care provider I wrote «negative» experiences about. The fact is when you have a good experience, it doesn’t haunt you — so we may not share that as much as one that does & it is true perhaps we should. To point at the person who at his hands had a poor experience, is tantamount to «blame the victim» — «kill the messenger». When this occurred, Dr. «F». did not show compassion or support or offer what to do about it. I’m hoping with the positive reviews there has been an evolution from a young arrogant doctor to a seasoned «care» provider. That just didn’t happen to be my personal experience. I don’t speak for anyone but myself & my experience. The best personal reference is probably his ex-​wife and his children — but that is not what my review was — it was not personal as his response seemed to be.

Dr. Freedman is very welcoming to new patients. He has an excellent demeanor. He is up to date on new skincare treatments. He will tell you what works and what is hype.

I had a pleasant experience with this office. I hardly saw the doctor but hey, thats how it works these days. The only thing I didnt like was he quoted me a higher price when I went in about 6 – 12 months later for another consult and to book the surgery. I dont see why the price increased. Overall, it was a good experience. :)

A very good friend of mine referred me to Dr. Freedman. He is professional and a perfectionist. He did my breast augmentation. I love my new breast. He changed my life completely. The entire process, procedure and recovery was a breeze. The procedure was at a great price with no hidden fees, The practice availablity is willing to accomadate you in everyday. Dr. Freedman, Elizabeth RN and office staff Joanna provide centered patient care. I will be going back there soon for laser hair removal. I can only speak highly of Dr. Freedman and his team. I have recommended my friends and family to him if your seeking perfection and beauty enhancement.

I was you a month ago… thinking, contemplating, mulling it over… Well, STOP thinking about it and do it!!! I am soooooo happy I finally did!
Last year, challenged by a friend, I changed my eating habits and began to lose weight… –100 pounds later and I am looking awesome… but, I was left with bat wings/​granny arms. I kept talking about «having my arms done»… Finally I decided it was time — it’s almost summer and I longed to be able to wear sleeveless dresses and shirts.
I researched top plastic surgeons in my area and made three separate consultation appointments.
I was so nervous at my consultation (hind sight 20/​20, I had nothing to be nervous about). Dr. Freedman and his nurse Elizabeth are really down-​to-​earth, professional, and caring people. We talked about what I wanted, Dr. Freedman explained and showed me what my arms would look like, Elizabeth answered all the what-​ifs and questions I had. I didn’t feel rushed during my consultation. I left that consultation with a spring in my step, feeling uplifted — it was apparent that they knew what they were doing and did it well.
After the three consultations with different plastic surgeons, I chose Dr. Freedman — and I am sooooo happy I did! The reason I chose Dr. Freedman over the other plastic surgeons is because he was confident without being arrogant — because he took the time to answer my questions, didn’t make me feel like I was stupid, and didn’t make me feel rushed or that I was a burden — because he didn’t try to up-​sell me on things I didn’t need — because he genuinely cared about me and my journey — because Elizabeth is knowledgeable, warm, and caring — and because his staff is professional and courteous.
Fast forward — I had brachioplasty surgery. It took about four hours from the time I went to the office until the time I was discharged. I am soooo happy with my arms — they are absolutely beautiful! My incisions are healing well and my scars are thin lines.
If I had it to do all over again, I would only do one thing different… I would have gone to Dr. Freedman six months ago when I started talking about «having my arms done.»

I’ve been to Dr. Freedman’s office twice for chemical peels (purchased via Groupon). Both times, Dr. Freedman and his staff were incredibly helpful, and friendly. The peels left my face glowing, and I’ll be returning for another treatment soon!

Wow, they need a new receptionist! I tried scheduling an appointment for a chemical peel and she told me the calendar was not open that far in advance — 6 weeks? She was very short with me and asked me several times to repeat myself, annoying! I hope the appointment goes better than trying to book this appointment!

The staff here is amazing, friendly, patient, and willing to explain everything about the procedure you are interested in. Dr. Freedman’s bedside manner is above and beyond any physician I have ever seen. When I had breast augmentation done in 2010 I was treated like family by everyone in the office. The office did not try to up-​sell me additional procedures — ethical, caring, amazing outcomes.
I would highly recommend anyone consult with Dr. Freedman if they are interested in breast augmentation.

I got my breast implants here back in November 2008. Here are a few tips when picking a surgeon and why I went with here.
1) Price/​payment plans. I was recommended to another doctor at GW however was informed he took no payment plans. Now some might cry «low budget» however keep in mind surgery is upwards to $ 10K and I don’t know about you, but I don’t have that chilling in my bank account. Here they do accept payment plans that are contracted through CapitalOne medical and they also accept care credit. Kudos to them for thinking outside of the box.
2) Staff: When you get implants, you have to back a bazzillion times for check ups and 99% of the time you’re meeting with the surgeon’s nurse staff. The nurse staff here is awesome, kind, compassionate, all of the adjectives that describe what a good nurse should be.
3) Quality: While I do like my implants, I wish they looked more fake. I know, I’m a weird-​o. My implants look natural. NO ONE can tell they’re fake. If you want the porn star crazy look don’t come here because Dr. Freedman will make them look natural.
Overall I am happy with my experience here and would recommend Plastic Surgery Associates of Northern Virginia to anyone looking to get a little more on top.
