Patient Reviews
Aug 03, 2023
Don’t listen to the Karen-cry-babies on here whose feelings were (supposedly) hurt. Dr. Teng is courteous, and professional; and (most importantly) did a great job with my Septoplasty surgery. The only things that should truly matter, are results. One of the reasons I decided to go with Dr. Teng (besides the fact that he’s Asian-American, and Asians are - on average - smarter than other groups), is because he’s not just an Otolaryngologist (ear, nose, throat, (ENT) Doctor); but he’s an ENT with a background in plastic surgery. And although I went in to have my deviated septum repaired to fix my blocked nasal airway (Septoplasty), one could say was more like a SeptoRhinoplasty, since I can now breath fully with my nose, and my nose’s aesthetics are improved as well; is more even, and better looking. To other’s getting the same, be patient with post-surgery recovery process - Swelling can take a while to fully subside. Don’t get discouraged. Just wait.
