Dr. Karimi, just the BEST Dr. Ever!

Dr. Karimi (AKA Dr. K), and his entire staff (receptionists, assistants, nurse (Megan), and anesthesiologist) are the best in the entire world. I have never met a more caring Dr., or staff. From my first appointment until now (5 weeks after my surgery), Dr. K had given me so much of his time and answered all of my questions and concerns immediately. When I say immediately, I mean it! He gave me his cell phone number before my surgery, so that if I had a question or concern I could call him. I texted him everyday for about a week straight with questions because this surgery was my first ever, and I didn't know what to expect. He answered my texts as soon as I sent them and replied to every one of them. Dr. K is also so professional, and his work is outstanding! I had a septoplasty, balloon sinuplasty, turbinate reduction, and while he was doing all of that, a rhinoplasty to decrease the bump in my nose, and make my tip look more feminine. Dr. K's results are fantastic. I can breathe so well (it feels like breathing is my super power now) and my nose looks amazing. I love it! On top of making me feel, and look so much better, he also offered to give me a lazer facial to reduce my rosacea for free! I cant thank Dr. K enough for all of his time, kindness, and expertise.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Dr. K!
One very happy patient,

Best Plastic Surgeon!

I was very excited, but also nervous to get botox/facial fillers for the first time. Dr. Karimi spent so much time with me during my consultation, and reassured me by answering all my questions. I feel 100% comfortable with him. He continues to provide me with phenomenal care each time I return to see him, and I always feel like he gives me his undivided attention during each return appointment. I couldn't be happier with my results!!! I will return to Dr. Karimi for all the future work I plan t...Original review on DoctorsDig.com

Great overall experience!

I went in to see Dr. Karimi because I was having severe allergies, causing nasal congestion and making it difficult for me to breathe.

The Dr. and his staff were exceptional at making me feel at home and providing quick and personal service. I also got the feeling that Dr. Karimi really cared about my health and well being. I've seen many doctors in the past who treated me like I was just another patient, rushing through the process and leaving most of the face-to-face time to their assistant...Original review on DoctorsDig.com

Exceptional Service!

As a male, i was pessimistic about the procedure but also felt uneasy about my decision. Dr. Karimi provided ample information and calmed my nerves and described the procedure very well. He maintained contact with me post visit to see how i was doing. - Excellent service!Original review on DoctorsDig.com

Relief from jaw pain and migraines

Dr Karimi did a TMJ treatment with Botox that helped reduce jaw pain and migraines. He was very helpful and quite thoughtful about all questions I had about the treatment. Original review on DoctorsDig.com

Gentle and experienced

I was always skeptical of getting Botox because the only time you really see it is when it's done really badly. II was afraid of that "frozen face" look I've seen on some women. But I recently turned 31 and felt like I needed to do something about the wrinkles on my forehead. From the minute I met Dr K I felt instantly at ease. It was painless! He totally understood my desire for it to be subtle, no one wants to hear "hey, nice Botox!" If you want to look "naturally refreshed" then you must go s...Original review on DoctorsDig.com

A true believer!

As a pretty average guy, I was fairly skeptical about getting any cosmetic work done, and I'm certainly not a fan of "going to the doctor" more than I absolutely need to. So I was less than enthusiastic about having botox work performed. However, Dr. Karimi was simply phenomenal! First, for a procedure based entirely on needles, he made it painless with his method and approach. Second, and most importantly, within a few days I saw results, and wow! My forehead is smooth and my crows' feet h...Original review on DoctorsDig.com

Dr. Karimi is the best!!

I have had the most wonderful experience with Dr. Karimi as my physician. He is kind-hearted, patient, and his surgical expertise and artistic eye are everything I was looking for in my doctor. I would recommend him to my closest friends and family members. He is truly devoted to his field, and most importantly he puts his patients first! Original review on DoctorsDig.com
