5 out of 5 stars Septoplasty
His work is beautiful and natural.
Knowledgeable. Innovator. Professional. Septoplasty with a cartilage graft. His work is clean and natural. I asked for very small changes in appearance as there was SLIGHT asymmetry and he delivered perfectly.

Horrible Result - Livonia, MI
Online and referral He withheld information and then kept telling me it would be OK. It has changed my life dramatically. I can't go out in the sun, wind, extreme temperatures. Can't wear cosmetics, sunscreen or moisturizer. I wish I had known what I know now about what he planned on doing to my face - I would have never opted to go through it, it certainly wasn't worth it.
1 out of 5 stars Septoplasty
Worst Decision of my Life - Livonia, MI
I went to Dr. B, despite his absolute lack of personality, because he came highly recommended for septoplasty. Not a day goes by that I don't regret the decision to have surgery with him as I feel he butchered my nose. My breathing is worse then ever and my nose is deformed as a result of his "over-agressive" surgery (as described by other doctors). I was left with a wide, bulbous, uneven nose that now droops on one side. I had one revision in attempt to get it fixed ($10k), but to no avail. This surgeon indicated that he had done several revisions for surgeries performed by Dr. B. I'm now consulting out of state surgeons for a second revision.
