I am not satisfied with my rhinoplasty!

$23,500
Yes Dr. Weintraub has the best bedside manner, he is personable, sweet and lovable but he did disappoint me. He did not give me my dream nose, and I paid a lot of money for this surgery, I didn’t borrow, it was my hard earned cash I stumped upfront and still ended truly unhappy with the result, perhaps because I am African he found it difficult to give me the nose I desired though it was very achievable, I don’t know what went wrong but my right side is depressed, even after 2nd revision, he tells me it looks perfect but to me it doesn’t, and no I am not crazy nd was not asking for Barbie looks he just failed to give the nose I wanted, now I have to find another surgeon, wait till the end of the year and if I am over this distrust I have now developed for plastic surgeons, try to fix it and hope my nose doesn’t ruined even further. I was afraid to post this because he has such great reviews and it was precisely why I went to him, after tediously searching all over nyc for the perfect doctor, he had me at first consultation and I was excited to do my surgery but I say this with deep disappointment and a heavy heart that I wish I could had picked another doctor. I do not plan on going back to his establishment which is why I am boldly posting this. The staff are great but I am disappointed with my nose, it was better untouched.

Have you considered Turkey, dr Umit taskin ?
I find this comment strange because in our office, during your postop follow-up, you had only described your final result with satisfaction, happiness and praise. This slight revisionary tweak was, in fact, performed on you free of charge. Furthermore, you returned to our office numerous times for additional services. Noses are not made out of paper mache. In fact, to this day, I truly wonder if you really understand what cosmetic nasal surgery can and can not do. As a result, I would highly caution you against further surgical intervention. Your improvement was accomplished with skillful precision and mature cosmetic surgical judgement, producing a result reflective of natural, understated beauty. Nevertheless, you are still welcome in our office at any time for any matter of concern, at no expense to you.
I am sorry to hear about your experience. I also had a terrible rhinoplasty result with him. Sadly, I also learned from public records in the Supreme Court that he is one of the most sued doctors in New York for medical malpractice! I wish I had known this before trusting him with my surgery. Dr. Weintraub has a questionable aesthetic sense and a tendency to be sloppy, callous and unethical.
I also had a bad experience with BW and found another who did a beautiful job revising my rhinoplasty, which is much harder than a primary. I was truly amazed at what he was able to accomplish and he is also very personable. Of course, what really what matters are the results. The new doctor was also very honest and ethical which was, let's say, refreshing.

I have some recommendations in Manhattan, if that interests you. Private message me. :-)
