Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Skilled Surgeon, Fantastic Demeanor, Great Results!
I had FFS with Keojampa four weeks ago and, though it is still early in the healing process, I am thrilled with the outcome thus far.
My greatest fears going in to FFS were that it would not be sufficient to make me pass, that I would be left with functional impairment, or – worst of all – I would wish I had gone with another surgeon; none of those came to pass, and I don't believe there is anyone in the world who would've produced a better result.
I did not expect choosing who to go to be easy for me; though it may be a routine procedure for the provider, it is a (hopefully) once in a lifetime event for the patient. I wanted to feel confident that I was making the right decision. I did extensive research to learn what was within the realm of possibility results wise and then set out to find a surgeon who I felt could come closest to that ideal. I read Dr. Ousterhout's FFS book, spoke with friends in surgical residencies, reviewed publications on soft tissue and bone work, etc. to make sure I understood what I was getting into and which procedures were necessary to reverse the effects of testosterone-based puberty.
After consulting with Keojampa, the choice was clear.
He was incredibly thorough during our first meeting, happy to explain why he uses specific techniques, what he does to minimise scarring, and discuss the pros and cons of different approaches, etc. - it was clear to me that he loves the work he does and strives to produce the best outcomes for his patients. At no point did he attempt to upsell me on any procedures – he even talked me out of a couple I had been considering!
The final surgical plan was typical of FFS, with a Type 3 forehead reconstruction, jaw and mandible contouring, lip lift, and cheek augmentation. The forehead and soft tissue work healed remarkably quickly; the mandible is a bit more trouble, but recovery was as easy as I could have hoped for, and the worst pain I experienced was comparable to a bad headache and I was able to return to working remotely within a week of surgery.
Post-operative care has been wonderful and exceeded my expectations, with prompt responses to all my questions (even trivial ones!).
Though I blended well before surgery, there were obvious signs of facial virilization under scrutiny. Those are gone. What more can a girl ask of FFS?
