“Life Changing - Beverly Hills, CA”
Spent: $8 in Beverly Hills, CA

To change my past feelings of self-conciousness, and feel better about myelf.
From my teenage years until now, I have struggled with feelings of anxiety regarding my nose. I realize it never was terrible, but I was very self-aware. Whenever I thought about rhinoplasty and discussed it with my friends, everyone would just say, “Oh, its just in your head, I think its fine.” Nobody would understand. Nobody would understand the self-awareness I felt over simple things, such as putting my hair up in a ponytail, wearing a hat, or even crossing the street. Anything that I felt would draw attention to my nose and especially my side profile, I would fixate about and be extremely self-aware. I finally stopped listening to my friends and took control.

My rating:
Thank you Doctor K for providing me with a new life. You have erased all my feelings of self-consciousness, replacing them with self-confidence. Never before have I felt so comfortable in my skin. Now, looking back 25 years old and 6 weeks later after my surgery, I wonder why I had waited so long. After meeting with Doctor K, I instantly knew that he would be performing my surgery. Of all my consultations, Doctor Kotler was there to make sure I felt comfortable with the entire process. He cared about my well being, answered all my questions, and was there 100% of the way, from the moment I stepped into his office for the consultation, until today, 6 weeks later after my surgery. After my surgery, he called me everyday for 5 five days to check up my recovery. Surgery is scary, but Doctor K was there every step of the way to make me feel more at ease. I can’t thank you enough Doctor K for my new nose and my new life! Jane Smith
