Rhinoplasty

World class surgeon with ethnic rhinoplasties, nose fits my face!

Dr. Ellis is a world class surgeon with Ethnic Rhinoplasties!!! I was very nervous to get one, as I have seen so many rhinoplasties done of those of African descent come out strange. Dr.Ellis went above and beyond my expectations! My nose fits my face without being to small, and I still look like myself and my ethnicity. His bedside manner and his team were impeccable as well.

Life Changing —If I could do this all from the start I would choose Dr. Ellis

My experience with Dr. Ellis has been an extremely happy one. A previous surgery with another doctor had left me very unhappy, deeply depressed, and hopeless to get my confidence back. Meeting doctor Ellis was refreshing in many ways. He listened to every one of my concerns and my goals and assured me he would do his best to achieve them.  My recovery was so different from my first surgery, and this time around, within a week, I had nearly no swelling around my face or any bruising, and no bloodshot eyes. At two weeks, no swelling or bruises around the face are present, and when swelling fluctuated at its lowest, I could see glimpses of the final result and I couldn’t be happier and more excited with the natural outcome.  During my follow up appointments I’ve had concerns, mainly tied to fears of my first surgery, and again, Dr. Ellis was very reassuring and honest and helped me feel much better about myself and the healing process. His staff at the office are very kind, professional, and always ready to answer questions and help.If I could do this all from the start I would choose Dr. Ellis and will continue to do so through my journey. I feel very lucky to have been referred to him and would refer him to any of my loved ones.

I was referred to Doctor Ellis after being diagnosed with Breast Cancer. After my double Mastectomy, DR. Ellis spent time with me and thoroughly went over my options for breast recontruction. After Careful Consideration, I decided to proceed with free flap reconstruction and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. I new before hand that this surgery would be timely and required a PS skilled in microsurgery. DR.Ellis fit the bill and my new breast look and feel amazing. DR. Ellis is an artist beyond his years. He's a perfectionist and he takes pride in his work. Thank you Dr. Ellis for making me feel whole again.

Dr. Ellis where do I begin, he is a absolutely one of the best surgeon in the whole United States! I don't have enough space on here to write as much as I want to! I am so honored to have him as my doctor, he goes above and beyond, he never gives up and fights for his patients to have nothing but the best. He gives you back the confidence and the beauty you once lost. Words can't express enough how much him and his crew mean to me!

terrible

Ellis dismissed swelling, a rash and extreme discomfort. Thank goodness I didn’t believe him. Better surgeons discovered breast implant illness, capsular contraction and a bulge/hernia. He deserves nothing good!!!

Bad Experience with Rhinoplasty

After two years I finally got a revision rhinoplasty with a different surgeon and received confirmation of the mess this man left me in. I had rhinoplasty with him back in April 2023, and as soon as the cast was taken off I could tell there was a dent in my nose bridge. As the swelling went down it became even more apparent, it sucked so much to live like this for over two years. He said something along the lines of the cartilage didn’t take and turned to mush which just didn’t make sense to me, I could tell he was not being forthcoming. Fast forward to today, now my new surgeon confirmed to me that the amount of cartilage that had been removed had left my nose completely unsupported and had led to it collapsing on my right side and detaching from somewhere else. Do yourself a huge favor and do not go to this surgeon.
