I consulted Dr. Corrado for a rhinoplasty last year, and the experience has been outstanding to say the least. Last August, I found him through Google and decided to send an email for a consultation. Their response was fast and I was scheduled for a consultation in September. However, a day later they said they could speed me up for a consultation next week! It was very exciting, yet nerve-racking because I wasn’t expecting it so soon, but the consultation was easy and comforting - I knew I made the right choice contacting them. His whole staff was friendly and kind from the start, I felt very safe in their hands the minute I met them. At the consultation, we went over my goals and what could be achieved and what couldn’t. We also took before and after pictures of what my nose could look like after the procedure. I called a few weeks later to confirm my procedure with them and was booked for January 3 2022 (college/winter break).
Between August and January, there were a couple appointments (virtual and in-person) which included discussions of safety procedures to go over, guidelines such as eating and drinking, exercise, and so on. His whole team made sure to outline every step before and after surgery to make sure I had the best experience possible. Jessica was awesome in keeping me up to date with everything I needed to know leading up to surgery.
January 3, woke up at 6 am, drove over to the surgery center, anxiety was through the roof, but Dr. Corrado was awesome and made me feel at ease in such a nerve-wracking environment. The procedure was seamless and I was able to go home by the afternoon. The week I had my cast on was not pleasant by any means, but not was torturous as I expected. The worst part, personally, was having to sleep on my back. Other than that, there was no pain or tears shed.
A week later I got my cast off, and this was probably the most emotional and best day of the whole journey. My nose looked even better than I could have imagined. I’m so glad to have trusted such a wonderful and professional team with my FACE! I cannot thank them enough.
I’m about 7 months post op and my nose is still slightly swollen in the tip but I fall in love with it more and more everyday. Being a person of color, it was hard finding someone to trust with my nose knowing many patients don’t look like me. But I am so glad to have chosen Dr. Corrado and his amazing team.
