I Wish I Could Give Zero Stars for Dr Loeb. Stay Away!

UPDATED FROM Resourceful323

Picture

I have added a picture below. This was taken a few years out from my procedure. You can see that the right nostril is collapsed. The doctor who performed my revision said almost all of the cartilage was taken out of that side. Thank god I was able to find someone to fix this mess.

The old guy ?
I had the same experience with Dr Loeb. My nose totally collapsed to the point I couldn't take a deep breath. I could no longer exercise, I couldn't taste, and anyone could see my entire nose retract every time I inhaled. ON TOP of that, he scammed me and never did my septoplasty! A CT scan revealed it was "significantly" crooked per the radiologist who signed off on my records, and confirmed by the proper surgeon who fixed his "work", and 2 additional ENTs gave me the same feedback. So that's 4 other MDs total who all agreed my septum was in bad shape after the bogus septo. RUN from this shyster. Don't say you weren't warned.
Wow same thing happened to me and besides completely dismantling my nose and taking all the cartilage out so I couldn't breathe because it was collapsed mid vault ad completely crooked , he also never corrected my deviated septum as confirmed by multiple credible facial plastic surgeons , STAY AWAY FROM LOEB... I'm going to write my full length review soon once I recover from my revision surgery with pictures but I don't want anyone to experience the pain I did this past year , i was extremely depressed and didn't recognize myself , I couldn't exercise because I could barely breathe and loeb is so ego centric and arrogant he never acknowledged or apologized for the mess he created
Did you find anyone that you like? How much should I expect to pay for this?
Same thing happened to me... never performed by septoplasty and breathing is worse. Nose leans to one side. Avoid this doc.
Why did you not write a review?

You think it helps people that you suppress this information? My God; maybe you could have spared this woman this pain.
same thing happened to me. huge dent in the middle of my bridge. one side is starting to collapse after about 18 months. nose job was done in April 2019

Stay away from dr loeb. I went to him for a rhinoplasty- initially I was happy. About 18 months out my right side of my nose collapsed due to the fact that he took out almost all of the cartilage. I went to his office and he was rude and dismissive. Thank god I found a wonderful surgeon who was able to fix this mess ( not easily, I may add).

Who fixed it?
Same thing happened to me from loeb.. it's been a horrible year and I am currently recovering from a reconstruction by a different amazing surgeon and had to have ear and rib grafting because he took all the Cartilage out of my nose and it was collapsed
Who is your new surgeon? How much was the procedure anyway?
