Sinus turbinate surgery can cause Empty Nose Syndrome, which makes you feel like you're suffocating. It is very debilitating. Even a small procedure can cause this condition.

This doctor is a true professional. He has many years experience in the ENT field and is renowned for his expert surgical skills ( if needed!). I found him to be highly knowledgeable and trustworthy. You cannot go wrong with this one.

I love Dr. B. Not only is he a great doctor (he performed surgery on me twice - both successful), he is also hilarious and an altogether awesome guy. 100 percent recommend him.

Beware of this doctor because you will go in telling him what is wrong. And yet he will start treating you for something else as long as it bills high. That's right this is the Scam Man, who's abusing the system just to get paid. don't forget he's ruining it for other honest doctors.
