An accident left me with a collapsed valve on the left nasal passage
Hi, My name is John P. My nose history is complicated, and after an accident left me with a collapsed valve on the left nasal passage, I couldn't breathe, sleep, or concentrate. Bloody discharge. Crusting. Infections. An inability to speak clearly because of the congestion and pinching sensation. But it was the pain – the excruciating discomfort – an unescapable pinching and pressure that made life so difficult. I couldn't live with this. Live was not sustainable under these

Amazing experience. Dr. Chow and his team is extremely attentive, caring and responsive. Dr. Chow listens and helps guide you through the process to achieve the desired outcome even though I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted except to look more refreshed.

As an Esthetician Dr. Chow is the Only Doctor I'd Ever Refer.. Natural, Beautiful Results.. Every Time.
Dr. Chow is basically a time machine. I've been his patient for over 15 years. His approach of doing targeted but small tweaks over time has changed my life. My most recent procedure was a temporal brow and face lift done at age 52. Using a small incision in my temple he eliminated early jowls, crows feet, and he returned my brows to where nature once put them. The results FAR exceeded my hopes and look completely natural. I returned to work 10 days later and no-one was the wiser.

Septoplasty: Lovely outcome!
Dr. chow and his team are so wonderful! Jennifer always answers the phone like she’s been friends with them for years; she is really on top of things! Dr. Chow gives off a very relaxed energy, even when I ask him to explain something three times. He is very helpful and knowledgeable. I had my procedure over a year ago, and I’m very pleased with the results. My esthetician commented on my nose, as well, after I told her I had surgery. She was so surprised she couldn’t tell I had

Dr. Chow Was the Perfect Choice!
Dr. Chow and his staff are wonderful. I felt comfortable and at ease immediately. They listened to me, really listened, and help guide me through a tough decision. They advocated for me with my insurance provider, and were able to get my procedure covered. Post surgical care was fantastic as well. My questions and concerns were all addressed quickly and thoroughly. Also, i never waited more than 2 or 3 minutes agter arriving for any of my appointments! I had a fantastic experience,

Excellent Appointment
Dr Chow is an excellent doctor. He fixed what another doctor messed up. He is very compassionate and caring. I never have to wait. I get in on time or earlier. He listens if you have any concerns and helps you with them. I have never been treated so kindly and with concern as Dr Chow has. Thank you , Dr Chow.

Breast Implant Removal with Capsulectomy
Worth it! I had my breast argumentation and removal with capsulectomy with the same doctor. I had my silicon implant for 4 years. My health started declining and had the autoimmune disease after I had my breast argumentation. I didn't think my breast implant was part of the cause for the auto-immune disease. After I removed my implant, I feel lighter and brain-fog was gone right away. I feel less tired. A year later, I am off my medication for the auto-immnune disease. I would

Always Happy with Dr. Chow
I have had lip argumentation by Dr. Chow 3 times now. He listens VERY carefully and tries extremely hard to create the look his patients desire. He keeps very detailed notes and bases each appointment on feedback from previous visits. Therefore, he can really tailor the results. The past two times he has done exactly what I asked for, a very natural look. The third time I suggested he just go for it and do what HE thought would look best. Of course, this time was the best outcome.

Amazing Rhinoplasty
I went in for a Rhinoplasty and could not be happier with my results. From the start of the process to finish the customer service that was provided to me, far exceeded my expectations. Dr Chow and Patsy really took there time with me and made sure all my questions were answered and made me feel real comfortable with my decision to move forward with the surgery. The receptionist Jennifer was amazing. If i had any questions she made sure they were answered in a timely fashion and
