Life changed from a really badly deviated septum

I had terrible breathing through one side of my nose for years. During the day it wasn't as noticeable but at night I'd have interrupted sleep from not being able to breathe and would often sleep in a position so that my face could be pushed on the pillow at an angle that would hold my mouth open so I could just breathe properly. I started using nose strips that hold your nostrils apart which helped a bit but ultimately didn't solve the problem. Dr.Kim took one look at my nose and told me it was a really badly deviated septum. She was extremely empathetic, professional, and communicative throughout. She performed my septoplasty which was my first type of any surgery ever and I felt completely at ease thanks to her. One week after the procedure, which is still early in the healing process I already feel a world's difference in my breathing.
