I had a bad nose job when I was a teenager. I was young and trusting and believed the surgeon. He never even mentioned the possiblity of a poor result. The next time I did a lot of research. I interviewed 4 doctors and then made my choice. I selected Dr Smith because he is clearly knowledgeable and genuinely interested in having happy patients. His wait time is longer than the others, but it was the right decision for me.
My surgery took over 3 hours and he had to use cartilage from my rib. This was initially a concern as the other surgeons didn't mention this. I'm glad I took 2 weeks off as suggested as I was very swollen. However by a month it was pretty clear what the results were going to look like. I'm a year now and I look great. Dr Smith is a very careful, experienced and thoughtful doctor and I recommend him to anyone thinking about a rhinoplasty.
Great review?
My Doctor: Oakley Smith, MD
My rating:
I didn't feel rushed, I never waited longer than 1/2 hour, and he responded quickly to my emails.
