I prefer writing glowing accounts of my experiences with those merchants and healthcare professionals I visit. Sometimes I can't, because what's the sense of creating a review , if not to accurately voice an opinion of your experience. That is where I'am with Dr. Furze. I originally wrote my preferred 5 star review, but after some time and consideration, it was apparent to me, I was overlooking too many things. Let me start off by saying, I was referred to Dr Furze, by another ENT doc that did not do balloon sinuplasty, but thought I was an ideal candidate for that procedure. I never met Dr. Furze before the procedure, but his PA did conduct a tele-visit and then scheduled an appointment to have Dr. Furze perform an in office sinuplasty. This seemed a little unconventional, but given the circumstances of it being a referral and all scans and examination notes were available, I had very little concern. I met Dr Furtze the first time on my scheduled appointment. Easy to like him as he puts you at ease. Thanks. However, don't be fooled in thinking this is a pain free procedure. I won't go into detail, but trying to deadened the pain of injections in the nose by jamming probes with topical lidocaine into your sinus passages makes no sense, when anesthetics as those used by oral surgeons  would  make this stress and a pain free 15-30 minute procedure. There are doctors who prefer this, but I assume insurance issues might have something to do with it. Perhaps, others can tolerate sinus probing, but I doubt few will feel  well the following day, even though you are told you can go back to your normal routine. Yes, the pain is nominal, but count on cold like symptoms for at least 2-3 days that slowly dissipates to around a week. Following the procedure and at home, I had some questions regarding pain medications. The office was closed and left a message. Within about a half hour Dr. Furtze called. I was thoroughly impressed with his concern and again, thanks. I was originally given an appointment for a follow up tele-visit about 4 weeks out. I called the office to change it to a office visit. Initial reaction ,was "we only do tele- visits for follow ups". I said that is absurd and asked for a call back, by someone with authority. I received a call back shortly there after saying, I could have an office visit, with the PA. I explained, I wanted to have Dr. Furtze check things out ,as he was the one who did the procedure and like any other surgery the surgeons evaluation has no equal. I was told he wouldn't be available for 4 months. I explained a lot could happen in 4 months and questioned that his schedule was so busy he didn't have time for a 10 min consult. I should add part of the consult was to check the filer he injected under my eyes, as an additional procedure, which he did while we waited for the topical to take affect. In summary , this is not a 5 star practice, but it wouldn't take much to become one.

I have had issues breathing through my nose and dealing with post nasal drip for over 5 years. I originally went to a different ENT who told me that I needed to have both sinus surgery and surgery done on my nose in order to fix my problem. He recommended I do the more invasive sinus surgery first despite the fact that my sinuses were clear on my CT and that my main issue was structurally in my nose. I came to Dr Furze and his PA Eugene for a second opinion and they wonderful! They listen to your concerns and take into account everything- including the fact I didn't want a major surgery. They agreed that I didn't need the sinus surgery and that my issue was primarily dealing with my turbinates. They offered an in clinic procedure that would reduce my turbinates and zap my posterior nasal nerve to slow down the post nasal drip. The procedure was quick, painless and I was in and out of his office that day. I was able to go back to work the following day. I am 6 weeks out from my procedure and I am feeling a ton better! I can finally breathe better when I'm sleeping or doing physical activity. I'm not waking up in the middle of the night choking on post nasal drip and my husband says I don't snore anymore! Overall, this was a great experience. All of the staff are friendly and helpful. Dr Furze and Eugene are extremely knowledgeable and down to earth. I highly recommend Dr Furze and Eugene!

My entire experience with Dr. Alexis Furze and all of the staff I encountered along the way were phenomenal. I had a lot of internal work done to fix chronic sinus and breathing issues; Dr. Furze is a perfectionist and knows exactly what he is doing with respect to the ENT issues (otolaryngologist & double board certified in reconstructive and plastic surgery). I always felt like I had his full attention in appointments, was never rushed, and he would close out every visit ensuring that I did not have any unanswered questions. The accessibility and friendliness of his staff was refreshing. He was very realistic and honest with anticipated outcomes and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

TOP #1 PHYSICIAN. Highly recommend Dr. Furze!!!! To begin with, I live in LA and have been searching for quite some time to find the right physician. When I heard about Dr. Furze from a family member and heard what a great surgeon he was , I trusted my instinct and booked a consultation. From the moment I met Dr. Furze and his staff, I immediately felt that I was in good hands. Dr. Furze is phenomenal, professional, and a very caring surgeon. I had my septoplasty/rhinoplasty with him not too long ago and my journey with Dr. Furze and his office staff has been so smooth and wonderful. I LOVE MY NOSE!!! He delivered exactly what I wanted, but also what was the best fitting for my face. I can FINALLY breathe better - Dr. Furze took his time on my surgery because I had quite a few problems internally. He is very meticulous and a perfectionist and not only is his work amazing, but so are his bedside manners. He LISTENS to his patients, and as a patient, I always felt calm because I was always heard and never rushed when I had any questions. He takes his time educating you about the entire procedure pre-operatively, post-operatively, and any related questions you have after surgery - he guides you. Dr. Furze and the entire office staff make you feel like family. That is what kind of care and services you get. They are extremely professional and so kind. I referred my family, friends and colleagues to Dr. Furze and they were all so pleased. Therefore, anywhere you are he is definitely worth the trip, he is definitely worth your time, and he is definitely the right surgeon for you. Dr. Furze, Thank YOU for taking such good care of me and for giving me the best nose ever!
