Ziad Katrib, MD

This review is solely for the consultation. My nose was left botched after multiple surgeries by a sole surgeon. Anyone who has gone through this knows how difficult it is on your body and mind. Dr Katrib was 1/3 doctors (out of 10+ I've consulted with) who not only went over my surgery notes in detail but expectations and was patient. He gave me hope. Something that many doctors don't because of how risky revision is.

Dr. Katrib performed a very complex 2nd revision septorhinoplasbty on me less than 2 weeks ago and I already look and feel so much better although I am still very swollen. I can't wait to see how it heals

TL;DR: Unbelievably proficient both in technique and artistry, with these to boot: bedside manner of a saint, patience of a teacher, and calming, fun demeanor of a good friend. I could not ask for a more capable and trustworthy doctor than Dr. Katrib!
Family and friends were perplexed when I left Dallas and went to Louisville for my septal reconstruction and primary rhinoplasty. However, my years of research (that includes several in-person consult in and out of TX) in approach to Asian rhinoplasty and doctors brought me here - not Dallas, not Beverly Hills, not Seoul. I followed Dr Katrib’s IG for over a year to make sure that his results are consistently good despite the unique challenges of the case and ethnicity, and…are not cookie cutter like what seems to be the majority of the IG elite in facial plastics. The in-person consult and actual surgery further reinforced what I already know to be true - he is very knowledgeable and current in his techniques, he loves and takes pride in what he does, and above all, he listens to his patients, sets realistic expectations, but strives to give you the dream!
He is always within reach and very quick in responding. He explains things thoroughly and patiently — before, day of, and after surgery.
I trust him implicitly that I even decided last minute to have a forehead reduction surgery in addition to the scheduled septal reconstruction/primary cosmetic rhinoplasty. Now, 8 days post op - both nose and forehead are healing beautifully.
Things went so well that I recommended him to my sister and bestfriend who needed revisions for entirely different reasons. The three of us ended up going to him - all out of state. Yes - he is worth it!

Dr Katrib is top of the line. I had the best experience pre op and post op with him. He was extremely comforting, has the best bed side manner, and his skill level is above anything I’ve ever seen. I went in seeking a cosmetic rhinoplasty and explained everything in great detail. During my operation it turned out that I had a deviated septum (couldn’t tell from the outside) and he fixed that during my surgery. My new nose looks so beautiful and has healed so nicely. Would recommend him to everyone who is looking for any sort of facial surgery including trauma

I am not pleased with my revision rhinoplasty results from Dr. Ziad Katrib. I was only looking for tip refinement and improved breathing. Breathing now worse. Appearance now worse. I got a saddle nose deformity from the Surgery . My pictures speak for themselves. Very few words are needed..

Terrible experience. I left with a nose that is a blob. And when I explained my concerns and he would not hear it. He’s great to you as long as you do what you’re told and like your nose. If not then you will see his true colors. Pictures show nose

Dr. Katrib was tired, derogatory, and disinterested. Seemed he has his preferred types, which I wasn’t. Never before have I experienced such negativity from any doctor. He did talk for full consult hour.
