Denver, Colorado

I'm only 10 days post-op from my rhinoplasty but I wanted to be sure to let Dr. Broadway, the surgical team, and everyone in the office how happy I am that I chose Dr. Broadway to do my surgery. Everything has gone so amazingly well, including the results. I'd been thinking of this for 41 years!!! Yet once I decided to pursue the surgery and met Dr. Broadway I knew immediately that he was the right surgeon for me. I remember thinking that aside from understanding the surgery, the risks and potential complications, I wanted to chose a surgeon who was experienced, board certified, and came across reassuring. He was all these things and more. In fact he was so understated at my initial interview that my confidence in his ability soared. And I was right.

The surgical team of registered nurses and the nurse anesthesiologist was extraordinary. As I'm a registered nurse by profession, you were all what I would call "the nurse's nurse." Liz, RN anesthesiologist called me the night before surgery and listened to my concerns about post-op nausea and pain management. She added some medications to the plan and I never once experienced any nausea. I also had very little discomfort post-op and stopped the narcotic pain medication within 24 hours of surgery. In pre-op everyone was so personable and focused on me and my comfort.

I think the most amazing part of the nose reshaping is that I still look like me and my new nose looks completely natural as though I should have been born with it in the first place. I told Dr. Broadway that it was my profile that I hated. His initial exam of my nose let me know that he understood exactly what changes would make me feel much better about my appearance. And here I am looking at me with a great profile that he says will only get better with time as the swelling continues to abate over the next 12 months. At 10 days I'm already so pleased that any additional improvements will only be frosting on the frosting of the cake for me.

Please thank all the office staff too. Everyone has been so kind, caring, encouraging, and reassuring every step of the way.

Sincerely,
Janet Christensen
