Dr. Afifi is truly a ONE OF A KIND doctor!!! I had my rhinoplasty surgery in January and I am beyond thrilled with the results, both aesthetic and medical. Aesthetically, my nose is symmetrical now and looks so natural on my face. I cannot emphasize enough how natural the results are. I was also so relieved when I saw that I had ZERO BRUISING after the surgery. I’m sure we’ve all seen photos online of nose job patients who get black and blue all over their eyes and nose… well not with Dr. Afifi!! This truly helped me mentally post opp, I can look in the mirror with my cast on and still be calm and recognize my face. Medically, the surgery has helped my breathing a million times over. For the past 10+ years I’ve struggled to breathe due to a deviated septum and have really suffered from its impact. This surgery was truly life changing, and I’m not one to be dramatic so believe when I say: this surgery was life changing!!! I’ll never forget the moment when Dr. Afifi removed the inner packing from my nose and I could breathe for the first time with my new nose. It was so surreal. For so many years I seriously forgot what it was like to easily breathe and take a full breath of air. I wanted to run outside right away and smell the fresh air for what felt like the first time. Dr. Afifi’s compassion and confidence throughout this whole journey is what sets her apart from every other surgeon I’ve met. In our first consultation, she was so honest and detailed about the surgery. I walked out of her office 100% confident that I was finally ready for this surgery. The morning of the surgery, she gave me a pep talk and reassured me once again. This truly made a world of difference and helped lessen my anxiety. She was so kind and warm, I’ll never forget that day. During the post opp appointments she was so considerate and made me feel so relaxed during that sensitive time. On the office side of things, she fought with my insurance for MONTHS to get them to approve my case and even sat on the phone for hours with them pleading our case. Now what surgeon would ever do that!? Dr. Afifi!!! This is what I mean when I say, one of a kind doctor. She goes above and beyond for her patients and is with them every step of the way. I am forever grateful for Dr. Afifi and her staff and am so lucky to have gotten this surgery.

Dr. Afifi is amazing! She not only does amazing, natural looking work, but she is personable, answers all of your questions, and is HONEST. You never have to worry about being oversold on work or on products. She gives her honest opinion and explains her reasoning without being pushy. I’ve never left disappointed . She will be my forever doctor and I highly recommend her to everyone I know who uses a plastic surgeon.

I've trusted no doctor or surgeon more in my entire life. Afifi is the utmost caring, knowledgeable, truthful and talented. She went out of her way to ring me personally when I had to move my surgery date last minute due to a medical emergency within my family. She's always willing to go the extra mile for her patients and her staff follows suit. Every person I've come in to contact with throughout the process of surgery as well as pre and post care has been wonderful and my results are absolutely beautiful!
