Patient Reviews
Sep 21, 2020
Dr Watson is a miracle worker. Could not be happier with the results of my Septo/Rhinoplasty. Complicated procedure resulted in my ability to breathe fully through my better looking nose. All pre and post op visits with Dr. Watson were pleasant, easy, painless and she answered all my questions. She is truly skilled and competent with complicated nose surgery! Highest recommendation to her and her Team. 6 weeks post op and I can breathe better than I could of imagined and my nose looks better than I had hoped even with some swelling. 5 Stars across the board for Dr. Watson.
