Akshay Sanan Md's Online Review Report Card

After seeing numerous H&N surgeons to evaluate my deviated septum, my search stopped at Dr. Sanan. His expertise as a facial plastic surgeon amongst his charisma and ability to connect with me as a patient is what assured me that Dr. Sanan was perfect for the job. He took the time to get to know me, and even my family as he fielded many concerned questions and answered them by setting realistic expectations. Dr. Sanan didn’t sell me on far-fetched realities but instead his ability to be thorough and pragmatic about what I should expect. Two-years post-surgery I continue to think about how having a septorhinoplasty with Dr. Sanan truly changed the quality of my life. In addition, entrusting Dr. Sanan’s cosmetic expertise also led to botox and filler appointments that I have equally appreciated.

I went to see Dr. Sanan for wrinkle relaxer, but he carefully and compassionately answered all my questions about a variety of things. Also, I’m loving the results from my visit! Thank you so much!

My experience with Dr. Sanan was great! He’s very easy to talk to and happy to inform you with any questions or concerns ! What’s also important going in for surgery is feeling comfortable around your surgeon and I definitely felt at ease around Dr. Sanan . I had a very complex surgery . I was very happy with my results not only did I feel much more confident in my own skin I could also breathe ! I definitely would and have been recommending everyone to Dr Sanan who is looking for life changing and natural results !

Dr Sanan did an excellent nose reconstruction for me after I had Mohs surgery to remove some skin cancer. This was my first time having any kind of procedure done on my face so I was a bit nervous. Fortunately Dr Sanan was friendly and easy to talk to and put me at ease right away. He was confident he could fairly closely put my nose back to how it looked before the Mohs and I’m happy to say he was right! The reconstruction took about 3 hours and I was awake the whole time chatting with him. I never felt anxious or concerned at any point as he kept me updated throughout the procedure. He did play lots of Coldplay though which I found questionable, haha. The surgery was painless and the aftercare was straightforward. Truly appreciate how relaxed and personable Dr Sanan was and how he was calmly confident but not cocky. He has an excellent “bedside manner” is polite and professional and made a fairly anxious experience a positive one for me. I think my nose looks great. Very happy. If I ever need any more reconstructive or cosmetic work done I’m going back to Dr Sanan for sure.

Dr Sanan is brilliant ! He is an amazing doctor that goes out of his way to make his patients feel comfortable, special and he makes them his #1 priority. I would recommend him over and over again

I am the biggest fan of Dr. S he’s an amazing doctor

If I’m being honest, the whole process behind my Septoplasty was a little nerve racking. Having never had surgery, I didn’t know what to expect. Dr. Sanan made the whole process simple. He didn’t overcomplicate anything. Looking back at the whole process, I’m so grateful I had Dr.Sanan as my ENT. He was straightforward and did amazing work. The recovery process takes a while, and it’s a two way street. Follow Dr. Sanans instructions to a tee and you’ll come out of recovery feeling great and so glad you followed through with the procedure.

We are so grateful to Dr. Sanan for giving our daughter a new life. A life where she can actually smell and breathe through her nose! Since we can remember, she had to sit up while sleeping and push her nostril to one side to get sufficient airflow. And when she got sick with a stuffy nose, sleep was just about nonexistent. We were ecstatic when we met with Dr. Sanan and found out life didn't have to be this way for her. He performed a septorhinoplasty on her at the ripe age of 18. She is still in disbelief that this is the way she should have been breathing her entire life. And the confidence she has gained from the subtle adjustment to the bridge of her nose is priceless. I mention her age because this process was scary for her and us, but Dr. Sanan answered all of our questions during the consultation and even a few leading up to the surgery. He calmed our nerves and was patient through the entire process. Dr. Sanan is amazing at what he does and is just downright a good person! We highly recommend him!

Dr. Sanan conducted a cosmetic rhinoplasty on me a few months ago and I am absolutely in love with my results! If I could rate him more than 5 stars I would. He removed the hump on my nose and fixed my deviated septum which resulted in a more softened and natural appearance along with improved breathing. 6 weeks after my rhinoplasty, I unfortunately broke my nose causing it to shift and become crooked. He was able to take me in for an urgent surgery and my nose was back to looking like my initial results! He was extremely helpful and attentive throughout the entire process and was always available to answer my questions. I could not be more grateful to have had such an exceptional doctor like himself perform surgery on me not once, but twice! I would highly recommend him - you will not be disappointed!

Dr. Sanan is a fantastic doctor whom I trust immensely - which is important when it is your face! I had never tried any sort of botox or fillers. Dr. Sanan totally understood my hesitations and eased my nerves. He's super smart, easy to talk to, and isn't trying to convince you to do anything you're uncomfortable with. I think when you're new to all of this, are doing it voluntarily, and paying out of pocket you're skeptical if it is necessary, if the doctor will do too much, and if you'll come out looking unnatural -- Dr. Sanan understands all of this and objectively will advise what you can do to enhance what you already have. I come to LA from SF to specifically see him and would highly recommend!
