How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Bad
This doctor did not produce results that last over time. The area I wanted fixed is unchanged, and the area I didn't ask to be changed is so collapsed that I can't breath through my nose at all anymore. Luckily it is so collapsed that insurance is covering the cost to fix with an ENT.
Nasal passage collapsed and deformities
5 years later and I'm having surgery with an ENT to fix the lower nasal collapse which occurred after this rhinoplasty. Dr. Basner also never fixed the part of my nose that I wanted corrected the most. I had a button nose and never asked for a pinched nose but that's what I got. My nose certainly doesn't look horrible but I just don't think he had the expertise to do what was needed.
Positives: Out of all the surgeons I've had...
Positives: Out of all the surgeons I've had consultations with, he was one of the better. My overall nose looks MUCH better than before and there are no major asymmetries. He listened to everything I wanted and did his best to accomplish that. I am extremely grateful at the work he was able to do and I look much better in person and pictures. I do believe Dr. Basner is a good rhinoplasty surgeon!
Negatives: I often felt rushed in our apts. A year after my surgery, the part I hated most about my nose is still unchanged. I was worried this would happen but in consultations he assured me multiple times that it would be changed. He says that part looks normal now, but other surgeons I have seen since agree that it looks abnormal. I'm also praying my breathing gets better, people have commented on my heavy breathing ever since the surgery. Lastly, one time they forgot I was there and I waited 1.5 hours to be seen.

Provider Review
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
The Plastic Surg. Ctr. for MD, Lutherville Timonium, Maryland
He's a nice guy who truly cared about me and my concerns. He is very knowledgable and comfortable doing procedures which made me feel safe choosing him. Only negatives about him are I often felt rushed in our appointments, and post op he didn't seem to like admitting what didn't turn out as planned.
