Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
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.

So my reason for getting a Rhinoplasty was because...
So my reason for getting a Rhinoplasty was because of my dorsal hump, as well as my tip which had an indent (a cleft tip). I had been wanting this surgery since I was about 15 when they took profile pictures before I got braces on... I was horrified at what I saw! Ever since then I was very self conscious, and would cover my nose when I crossed the street, or reposition myself at social functions so people wouldn't see me from the side.
I finally began to seriously research clinics last summer. My initial problem which I realized not long ago, is that I was picking places based on clinic reviews, and not specific Doctor reviews. I found a clinic in my hometown which had high ratings, so I emailed them for a consultation appointment. Since I had a referral from my family Doctor, I was able to have to consolation fee waived.
When I met the Doctor, he was super sweet and understanding. He listened to all my needs and never made me feel rushed. When he found out I had a referral because I was domestically assaulted, hence my broken nose and problems breathing, he was very sympathetic and let me know he would sent out a request to the health ministry to have the septoplasty portion of my procedure covered.
It was a long process to have my case reviewed, and eventually found out 7 months later that I got approved! So now it was a matter of booking my surgery date, which I booked out another 3 months out so I could figure out my work situation.
I had my surgery on June 2nd, so I am 5 days post op. I got my cast off today, and I am horrified at how swollen I am. I swear I am much more swollen than many peoples profiles I have seen on real self. I am questioning myself because I really wish I had done more research and picked my Doctor based on his personal reviews - not the clinic reviews. His reviews aren't that bad, but he is by no means a "nose specialist."
My doctor is so sweet and has been nothing but good to me, but I hope I did not make a huge mistake by going along with him based on his manner and not by his reviews..which I can't find much of :(
