I have seen some of your doctors speak highly of Dr. Gunter and Dr. Rohrich here in Dallas/Ft. Worth for "redo's" of nose surgery. I know alot of you have voted for Dr. Gunter. My delima is Dr. Gunter doesn't file insurance but Dr. Rohrich does. I know a great protion of my problem is breathing with some cartlidge deterrioration. Is Dr. Rohrich as good as Dr. Gunter? Everything I have read from his webpage and seen pics. seem to me to be good. Thanks for any advice.
