Verified Patient Reviews for Richard Balikian, MD, FACS
Very impressed with the office and staff. Everyone was helpful and friendly. I've been an RN for 47 years and after speaking with Dr. Balikian, I have complete confidence in his skills. He was very nice and went into great detail about the entire procedure.
Could have had better pictures to show what nose would look like with the rhinoplasty.
Dr Balikian was very thorough, kind and so appreciate his expert honest evaluation...only wish it wasn’t so much! Erin very professional and so helpful trying to get me scheduled. Also love that several of the staff members have undergone some surgeries and they ALL look amazing. Would highly recommend tDr. Balikian and his Team.
* Absence of post surgery Vertigo I experienced in a previous surgery * No pain before, during, or after… completely comfortable the entire time * Dr. Balikian's positive attitude, attention to detail, ability and willingness to listen without making me feel rushed, and without seeming distracted * Very pleasing visual results * Pristinely clean, fully equipped operation facility * Professional, kind, caring, staff (especially nurse Pattie!) * Large number of staff members in case of emergency
From the moment I checked in throughout the consultation and my time with Erin up to meeting with Dr. Balikian went above my expectations. Everyone is very friendly makes you feel at ease excited about your journey and knowledgeable.
