Asked By:sonia8123 in Seattle, WA

Hi ,i recently had rhinoplasty,i just wanted to ask something that is bugging me. on surgery day doctor was very upfront and there was no warmth from the staff either,except for the anesthesiologist...i only got one follow up call from the nurse and for cast removal she said that i can either remove myself or come to office. doctor will not be in town that day, i did not pay them to just ignore me..isn't the doctor suppose to take my cast off and take his patients seriously or am i overthinking.
