Dr. Samimi changed my life. After being turned away by other cosmetic surgeons who considered my malar festoon eye bags too complex to treat, I found Dr. Samimi -- and the difference he has made to my appearance has been truly remarkable. He performed an in-office skin pinch, midface lift, fat grafting, and direct festoonectomy on me. What struck me most was his combination of youth, innovation, and exceptional talent. Where others saw complexity and walked away, he saw a path forward and delivered results I honestly didn't think were possible for me. I cannot recommend Dr. Samimi highly enough. If you've been told your case is too difficult or complex, don't give up -- find this doctor. read more

Dr. Samimi was just excellent. During my consult, he explained to me what the issue was and not only how he planned to treat it, but why he made these choices. I was encouraged to ask questions, though I didn't really have any, because he was so thorough. On the day of my procedure, Dr. Samimi and his team were fantastic. He re-explained everything, and the procedure was quick and painless. I felt really seen and cared for. read more

I was referred to Dr. Samimi by my ophthalmologist and my optometrist for ptosis. My drooping eyelid was covering part of my pupil and obscuring my vision. In addition, it affected my appearance. Our first meeting included examination, explanation and planning. The procedure was performed in his office and I couldn't be happier. It didn't take long at all. I can't tell yet how much my vision has improved (haven't had it tested yet) but my appearance is dramatically improved. I'm very happy and highly recommend him. read more

Dr samimi is the best of the best , so happy with my results, I did the upper and lower eyelid,

I needed to remove a skin tag under my eyelid. My dermatologist wouldn't do it and said I needed a plastic surgeon who specialized in eyes. I asked around and heard good things about Dr Samimi. What a terrific find. The office staff were all so welcoming and professional. The Doctor had a wonderful "bedside" manner. He took his time explaining everything that was happening. The procedure went so well. I was extremely happy to have him as my doctor. I recommend him without reservation. You will be lucky to see him. read more

Our experience could not have been any better With Dr. Samimi and I felt like my son was in great hands! read more

I went to Dr. Samimi for a surgical Exxon of a lipoma in my right eye. He was very professional and personable. The office was modern and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. The surgery was performed under local anesthesia. They started with a gel-like topical anesthetic so I did not feel the local injection. The surgery went smoothly and did not take longer than expected. Post operative instructions were given orally and written. I stopped by the pharmacy where a prescription for antibiotic eye drops was waiting. All went as expected without complications. read more

I cannot recommend Dr. Samimi enough! His knowledge, professionalism and procedures are second to none. He explained my options thoroughly thaI was very comfortable with my decision to move forward with my eye procedure. Best of all the results far exceeded my expectations! read more

I went to Dr. Samimi based on the the recommendation of my dermatologist as well as a friend of mine, who had a very positive experience. I had elective surgery on both the lower lids and upper lids at the same time. Dr. Samimi was personable, professional and responsive. He explained everything very thoroughly before the procedure. His office staff was very helpful and professional. When I contacted Dr. Samimi to ask questions after the procedure, he responded right away and has continued to be responsive at all follow-up appointments. I had consulted with two or three different doctors before deciding to go with Dr. Samimi and am very happy I went with him. I have gotten so many compliments on my eyes - people just think I am well rested and relaxed, they look so natural. I would highly recommend Dr. Samimi and his office and would definitely go to him if I needed anything done in the future. read more

I had upper and lower blepharoplasty with fat transfer to my temples and lower cheeks. I highly recommend Dr. Samimi and his staff. They were very professional and supportive from the first appointment to the last. Dr. Samimi is a great surgeon and has vast knowledge of the face and eyes. He was very realistic with my results and answered all my questions every time I visited him. I believe my first appointment lasted over 30 minutes. The staff was also amazing and answered all my questions when I called them for support after the surgery. I was quite nervous to do this surgery but Dr. Samimi made me feel very comfortable and showed me, through previous photographs, what the results would look like. I was very excited am very pleased with my results at 9 months in. He indicated that the full results of the surgery won't show for over a year. I highly recommend Dr. Samimi - you will not be disappointed. I look forward to seeing him in a few years when I am ready for my face lift! read more

I was referred to David Samimi, M.D. over a year ago by a noted surgeon in the cosmetic field. From the moment I engaged with Dr. Samimi's excellent staff and associates, I felt certain that he would be my doctor for life. His economy with his surgical work is spot on. What I mean by this is that most of my of my trusted friends and colleagues tell me "You look so much better and I cant tell that you had anything done." As an actor, this is music to my ears! Dr. Samimi's Santa Monica and Encino offices were always efficient, communicative, organized and provided a sanitized & safe environment since the global pandemic began. I cannot recommend David Samimi, M.D. enough. As I said previously, he is my cosmetic surgeon for life! Thank you, Blake Boyd read more

I highly recommend Dr Samimi. I needed a Chalazion removed from my eyelid as my eye became so dry and vision became blurry. At first the office told me they were booked till October but I explained the situation and they fit me in 2 days later. I was terrified because I watched YouTube videos of how doctors remove them and well it looked barbaric. But Dr Samimi thinks outside the box and managed to do it really almost pain free! He used numbing cream and I only felt a very small prick of the needle to numb it further. He was so gentle and precise. I was impressed! He told me I could expect my eye to have some red discharge but I did not. He also told me to expect to look very bruised which I don't! It's cause he is so good at what he does. He didn't take my HMO insurance and they only charged me $500 and I was quoted $1200-$2,000 by another doctor in Beverly Hills. I'm so glad my Ophthalmologist refered Dr Samimi! He's amazeballs, and I was a terrified nervous patient. read more

Back when Yelp was new, I took it very seriously. I reviewed just about everything I did. I was part of the LA "Yelp community" including social events etc. That eventually slowed when Twitter came around. So you can see I've been at this a long time. In the last several years, I seem to only Yelp when I want to either boast about a business or warn people of horrible service. Dr. Samimi is worthy of my time here. Having reached my 50's, things, as expected, start to drop and sag a little. I'm not an incredibly vane guy but I did have an "issue." I had a pea-sized lump in my lower eye bag area that stuck out even more when I smiled. There was a bit of "bag" under my other eye, but if they were both like that one, I'd feel it was just normal. I wanted this pea-sized lump gone and started looking into surgery. Based on a recommendation, I was pretty much decided and ready to go to San Diego with a doctor there, but at the last moment, I went back to researching my home area of Los Angeles. I came across Eyesthetica a few times and the more I read, the more I thought to trust a place the specializes in eyes. I was clearly on the fence since the "other place" was a recommendation. Having to deal with travel to San Diego just started to seem daunting. Then I met Dr. Samimi. He evaluated my situation and really listened to my concerns and studied my eyes. He spoke with confidence and knowledge. He gave me a few options and I immediately had his trust. I decided on a couple procedures on both eyes with my biggest concern being symmetry. We scheduled surgery about two weeks out. I took it upon myself to go in a day ahead and get my prescriptions handled first so after my surgery, I could just go home and not deal with it. I'm glad I did since after the surgery, I looked like I just got out of the ring with Mike Tyson followed by a few free shots by George Foreman. The only meds I didn't need were pain meds. There was the expected discomfort for maybe a week, but simply no pain. As of this writing, I'm just under the 6-week mark of recovery and all the swelling is gone and I'm only treating a soon to be virtually invisible tiny scar with scar gel. Only 6-weeks out and I keep staring in the mirror in amazement. Dr. Samimi is a miracle worker. As recent as a week ago, it didn't seem I would have symmetry in my face even after all this, but somehow, as the last of the swelling has subsided, it all looks amazing compared to before. I'm a bit more shy that others, so I won't post my pics, but if you're wondering how legit my post is, go back and look how many reviews I've written and how long I've been at it. This is 100% legit. I've never been bought or paid off. If I was the least bit unhappy with anything, I would say it. So to wrap this up, if you're considering Dr. Samimi, just go meet with him then let your gut guide you. He really knows what he's doing. And being a specialist in eyes, that really makes a difference. I have zero regrets and I can also say, Dr. Samimi is really a good person. He cares about his work and wants you to be happy. I wouldn't mind being friends with him. He cares and knows his craft. Bottom line. I'll update this review when more time has passed. read more

After my dads blepharoplasty procedure, Dr. Samimi was well aware of my fathers dissatisfaction. Since then, Dr. Samimi and I have been in contact and have spoken over the phone about this as he wanted to ensure questions were answered and both parties were pleased. He was sincerely sorry for what had happened and wanted to do right for his patient. We communicated and I can hear in his voice that he was distraught that a patient of his wasn't satisfied. No one wants to hear that.Dr. Samimi went out of his way to show how terrible he feels and make my father a happy patient... For that reason I appreciate the efforts he put into making light of the situation even though it DID happen. Still a mystery as to why it went the way it did, but, it's something to look past as there's no way to turn back time. My father expressed how pleased he was after his post op visit with Dr. Samimi as he was professional, truly sorry, and very kind. My father felt that he was listened to, cared for, and felt comfortable speaking with the doctor and that's what every family members want to hear! read more

I cannot say enough about Dr. Samimi. He's personal and takes his time with you. He listens to your concerns & addresses any worries you may have. I had quite extensive upper & lower lid surgery with fat repositioning. The recovery time is a bit longer but it's worth it! I never had a day of pain. Dr. Samimi was always available post surgery addressing any questions or concerns I had too. I only wish I did this sooner! I would definitely send my friends to him. read more

David B Samimi, MD - This is my before and after 3 months post-op. - Ophthalmologists Near Me - Santa Monica, California

I am a newbie to Botox. Although I was never opposed to having it done, I never felt like I wanted it until I was in my thirties. Like many women, my husband "vehemently opposes" botox and fillers. I think that this has more to do with photos and videos of overly enhanced people. Anyway, I saw Dr. Samimi based on my aesthetician's recommendation. My favorite thing about Dr. Samimi is his demeanor. In L.A. there are plenty of doctors that do amazing work, but Dr. Samimi is so patient, calm and relatable; this makes it more of an experience. He will respectfully make his recommendations but not try to push procedures that you do not want onto you. He will listen to your goal and base his recommendations around what you are looking for. Dr. Samimi has a light hand and understands the facial anatomy. What more could a girl want? If you're looking for some aesthetic enhancement, pay Dr. Samimi a visit. read more

I was referred to Dr. Samimi by my dermatologist Celia Brown. From the moment I met Dr. Samimi, I knew it was going to be a good experience. First of all, he welcomes you and makes you feel very comfortable. He has a great demeanor along with an outgoing personality. For the procedure I needed, removing fat deposits from under the lower eyelid, he was very honest and took the approach that would work best, along with saving me a bit of money as well. On the day of the procedure, which was in his office, he kept me engaged so I understood everything he was doing, along with keeping me comfortable the entire time. After the procedure, there was some bruising which disappeared rather quickly. On my follow up visit a week later, he was just as sweet as he was on my prior visits. We agreed the results turned out great. We even had a friendly little chat. I have no doubt you will truly like Dr. Samimi and his office staff, along with his skills as a doctor and surgeon. I also believe his fees are very fair. I highly recommend Dr. Samimi. read more

David B Samimi, MD - Ophthalmologists Near Me - Santa Monica, California

I should probably start this by saying that I have quite a long history of various ocular concerns (some serious, some not so serious). Of the "not so serious" variety, were questions regarding the appearance and symmetry of my eyes after all of the surgeries and procedures that I've been through. A very trusted doctor referred me to Dr. Samimi, and I'm so glad I came. I can not say enough about how great my experience has been with him. He really goes above and beyond to make his patients comfortable and happy. He explained my options in great detail, with pros and cons, his recommendations, etc. At no point did I feel like he was just looking for a payday (which unfortunately is an experience I've had with a few other doctors). When I decided to go ahead with surgery, I felt absolutely confident in my decision. Post-surgery, Dr. Samimi continued to extend his gentle care throughout my smooth recovery, and he achieved excellent results that I am very happy with. Not only does he know what he is doing, but he's also just an overall nice guy with outstanding bedside manner. Your search for the right surgeon stops here; Dr. Samimi is the absolute best! read more

I did some research and decided to have a consultation with Dr. Samimi. I carefully selected, 3 doctors I wanted to see as they all have a consultation fee, and of course the doctor you go with will deducted the fee from your procedure, the others your out the fee LOL. After my three Consolations Dr. Samimi was my choice. Reason for my appointment, I had a drooping upper lids and I was given several options. I choose the Fillers and I am 100% happy with his work. I found him to be Kind Honest and Charming. I have had several visits with Dr. Samimi and he's always on time, very important to me. The office staff very friendly and quick... read more

I had developed fairly severe bags under my eyes over the padt several years, which made me feel self conscious. I also have ongoing complicated glaucoma, for which I'm followed by a glaucoma ophthalmologist, and have had numerous surgeries on left eye. This dr.referred me to Dr. Samimi. I was able to get an appt in a timely manner, and was able to choose my surgery date, and surgery location from several facilities. Dr. Samimi did a terrific job, fixing my extra folds of skin on my upper lids (covered by my insurance), lifting the left lid, which was drooping due to the multiple surgeries, and completely eliminated the bags under my eyes. And, I had no post-op pain. He is a very friendly dr. I highly recommend him. read more

Over the past couple of years, catching my reflection in the mirror had gradually become a risk I incurred every time I entered the bathroom. Puffy bags under my eyes appeared without my permission, and dark circles added to the horror. Through a referral by my trusted dermatologist, Dr. Paul Smith, I happened into Dr. Samimi's capable hands. When I went in for the consultation, I found the staff to be organized and Dr. Samimi punctual. I was struck by his energetic demeanor and youthful good looks - I even wondered whether he was old enough to have a degree in medicine, let alone practice surgery .... and on MY eyes. He handled me with the poise and confidence that one can only derive from years of successful practice and a sense of achievement. He quickly revealed himself to be meticulous and accurate, assessing my situation and formulating his recommendations with no hesitation. Ten minutes with him were enough for me to turn my bags and circles over to him, knowing that he would dispose of them safely. But it wasn't until after surgery that I realized that Dr. Samimi's success was not only accomplished through diligence a steady hand: he is also artistic. He didn't wipe 20 years off my face, or stretch my skin over a drum: he found, and returned me to myself. Even my incisions are barely visible to the naked eye, and only if you knew where to look - I only had the procedure done three weeks ago. I know, singing Dr. Samimi's praises might be getting a little boring by now, but I cannot post this review without at least mentioning that, beyond his medical acumen, and his artistic vision, he is also of unpretentious and honest character. He offered to drive to my house, just a few hours after my surgery, to drop off an antibiotic cream that I had forgotten to pick-up before leaving the hospital. And, last but not least, he even adjusted my droopy eye lid at no extra charge (I sound like I must have looked like such a monster before the blessed surgery.) In conclusion: anyone who needs, or wants, eye surgery is safe under Dr. Samimi's knife. I enthusiastically recommend him. read more

I've been moving around a lot and good doctors are really to find. When I got my second chalazion in a year, I freaked out. If they don't go away, they require surgery and surgery near the eye while awake is pretty awful. You must seriously trust who you see! Finding Dr. Samimi was the best surprise. Most experiences at the doctor are underwhelming but Dr. Samimi is friendly, patient, extremely knowledgeable, talented, and considerate. He brings a level of humanity that many doctors offices are lacking. Plus, he's fun and easy going. I stumbled into his office for a chalazion and now trust him for aesthetic procedures as well. It's important to find someone who knows their stuff, is honest, and talented. If you are looking for an oculoplastic surgeon, look no further! read more

Simply the best and most understanding Doctor. Dr Samimi is very gentle, very approachable, I was pleasantly surprised especially because he is such a young doctor. He is very nice, very professional and at the same time very concerned about his patients and their needs. I highly recommend him. read more

It's not often I can be so positive about experiences with health issues and care providers. I had tear duct surgery to open blocked drains that prevent my eyes from draining. Dr. Samimi's operation was simply fantastic from top to bottom. Office staff, medical staff, O.R. check-in, doctors, nurses and orderlies were most pleasant, efficient, communicative, and showed a sense of care during a time that is always a bit nerve-racking as a patient. And Dr. Samimi himself consistently took time to explain things and answer questions. His demeanor and attitude never felt rushed or dismissive. I realize these facilities care for an enormous amount of patients, so I am always very appreciative not to feel hurried or talked down to. I understand that the emphasis of their practice is aimed at cosmetic procedures. But I was not given short shrift. In the end, not only were my issues completely and successfully corrected, but the entire experience was handled as well as can be imagined, and was all in all a great one. Five stars is simply not enough! Kudos to Eyesthetica and the entire team! read more

i saw DR SAMINI on tues. oh my gosh, what a fantastic DR. he was funny very gentle, explain things in detail to where i can understand what needed to be done. i felt very comfortable, i no im in good hands. THANK U DR. SAMIMI!!!i have to say SAMANTHA IS A GEM!! she is friendly, very helpful, explained all the paperwork, instructions before & after surgery. VERY NICE LADY, FUNNY TOO! I RECOMMEND YOU "SEE" HIM! this is the office to get ALL ur eye problems taken care of in 1 office. U WONT BE DISAPPOINTED! read more

First let me say that I absolutely hate going to the doctor, so the fact that I'm writing this 5 star review says a lot! I needed to have a mole looked at that I had on my caruncle (the pink blob in the corner of your eye) so it was a necessary visit. I was referred to Dr. Samimi by my optometrist and it turns out he was the same doctor that my daughter saw about two years prior! Wow! Small world and what a relief! He's the type of doctor that makes you feel as if you've known him forever- very personable and warm. Even better, he doesn't try and upsell you on cosmetic procedures (like every other doctor!) I felt at ease knowing he would be the one working on such a delicate and important part of my face. I ended up needing to have the mole removed, so on the day of the procedure I prepared for the worst. I thought I would be half blind and in pain for at least a couple of days, but I literally walked out feeling like all I had done was put drops in my eyes. It was quick, painless, and I probably didn't even need to skip work that day! My mole is gone and you can't even tell it was ever there. Dr. Samimi even personally called to check on me later that day! A true professional! I highly recommend Dr. Samimi. He is friendly, trustworthy, and skilled at what he does! I might even go back for a little extra work ;) read more

I brought my 9 year old daughter to Dr. Samimi's Santa Monica location because she had a stye that just would not quit! It was determined that it had to be removed surgically and I was referred to Dr. Samimi. We went to the surgical center in Encino for the actual surgery. Dr. Samimi is warm, attentive and thoughtful. He put my daughter at ease, and then he put me at ease as well because she needed general anesthesia and I was nervous about it. The staff could not have been friendlier and the surgical center is amazing. The surgery was a total success. Cannot recommend this doctor enough! read more

I have never written a review about a doctor though this was quite an exceptional experience. I had an issue with my eyelid that needed to be taken care of. When you travel for a living little things like getting in to see a doctor at a moments notice becomes a daunting task. Dr. Samimi's office made this easy for me to get in the following day! I had made numerous calls to many other Ophthalmologists with little to no assistance. From the time I walked in I knew I made the right choice. Gabby greeted me with a big smile, what a delight. Quickly processed all the paperwork and explained all my options. Dr. Samimi was very professional and made me feel at ease immediately. He presented a treatment plan that was easy to follow and got me on my way. This is true excellence and tremendously reassuring that there are great doctors in Santa Monica. Doc you rock! read more

Dr. Samimi, was very professional, knowledgeable, he did my wife's eyes, we were very happy, that's why I made an appointment as soon as possible, we recommend Dr. Samimi, to our friends and family. The office staff is very friendly, we actually looking forward for our office visits. Thanks again. We love you Dr. Samili. read more

I had upper and lower eyelid surgery with Dr. Samimi on May 6th, 2014. I was referred to him by my eye doctor in Santa Monica, who highly recommended him. I am really happy with the results and I'm glad I had the surgery. My upper eyelids were quite droopy. I am 63 and age had taken its toll! Dr. Samimi tightened up the left and right upper eyelids. Everything looks much better and I can see better. Dr. Samimi also did my lower eyelids and there is a huge positive change in my appearance. I don't have bags or large indentations anymore. Everything looks great. He did a really good job. This was a scary operation for someone who has never had eye surgery, but Dr. Samimi was very reassuring and skillful. One concern I had was that I didn't want to have any alarmingly drastic or noticeable changes. I just wanted to look better, with positive subtle changes, and that is exactly what the results were. I guess you would call it "stealth plastic surgery." You have it and look better, but people can't figure out why! I recently went to a party where I hadn't seen some of the people for years. One friend kept looking at me and finally she said "You look younger. I'm not sure why, but you do." I actually hadn't done the surgery to look younger, although I know a lot of people do. I was just tired of people telling me I looked very tired or sad. No one says that to me anymore, and when I look in the mirror I see a very refreshed, rested person. I really liked Dr. Samimi and was very impressed with his expertise. He was easy to work with, explained everything and has a great personality. He's very conscientious and caring. Right before the surgery, he told me that I might question whether I had wanted to do this when I saw the bruising and stitches after the surgery, but that things definitely looked better with time. That helped a lot and he was right. He is also great with follow-up appointments and lets you know what to expect as you go through the recovery process. I had the surgery three months ago and I am almost completely healed and feeling great. I would recommend this surgery and Dr. Samimi completely. P.S. My current Yelp picture is a "before" picture, so it shouldn't be used to judge what I look like now. I'll have to get that changed! read more

Dr. Samimi is amazing! I was referred to him only by chance, & I will never trust another eyelid specialist! I was seen by another before I went to him, and wasn't really explained much. Dr. Samimi has great bed side manner and profssional. He takes his time with every patient, you never feel rushed. Great at answering any questions you have. And I have probably asked some pretty ridiculous ones. Lol. I went to him with an orbital tumor in my left eye. It was obvious to him that it was growing. He gave me a few options, but really wanted it out, it was already causing me other issues and problems. I was extremely nervous and scared to have a ugly scar on my face, but he did an amzing job! He made sure to go along my eyelid to hide it. Now 2month post-op and the scar is almost nonexistent! It's not at all noticible to anyone who is unaware that I had surgery! My eyes look so much more symetrical compared to pre-op. I would definitely 100% recommend him for anyone seeking an eyelid specialist! read more

Dr. Samimi is awesome! I got the news last week that I needed to see a plastic surgeon for a growth on my eyelid. Eyesthetica was able to set up an appointment with Dr. Samimi for early Monday morning! Anyways, come Monday morning I was greeted by the friendly receptionist, followed by the good doctor himself. He was very friendly and thorough while performing my consultation. After the exam he gave me my various treatment options. I was lucky to have a easy in-office type removal. A few squirts of eye numbing drops, some numbing cream and some numbing shots and we were good to go. There was a separate more sterile room for this type of procedure but he was very thorough and fast. The most painful part or the experience was probably the first numbing shot and the bright lights he used while he removed the growth. In other words, it was pretty quick and painless... Best of all, very minimally invasive so I could immediately go back to my daily routines. Can't wait to see what my final result is after a few weeks of healing, but it already looks much improved so I'm sure it will be fantastic. If you are in need of an eye surgeon, (growth removal, lid lifts, anything else) I would seriously check out Eyesthetica and Dr. Samimi! You will be very impressed! read more

Dr. Samimi has a wonderful, easy sense about him that make you feel immediately at ease. The amount of time he spends with you, the myriad of options he presents to you so the two of you can make the best possible informed decision lets you know that your with a Dr. that truly cares. His work is impeccable. Janet & Ted read more

I was scheduled to see Dr. Samimi for the first time this week. I ended up having a virtual appointment and I got lots of good information from him. He gave me direction kn my medical problem and told me what he can do for me in the near future. I was pleased with all the help he provided me and look forward to seeing him for a follow up. read more

I saw Doctor Samimi to discuss concerns I had regarding under eye puffiness and dark circles. He was patient and kind, answered all of my questions and addressed every concern. He was honest and gently guided me to make the right decision, while managing my expectations. After deciding on under eye filler, as opposed to surgery, I had a very easy and painless appointment. It was quick and I had minimal swelling - no pain and no bruising. I went to dinner that night and felt completely fine. No down time. At my follow up appointment Dr. Samimi was kind and professional. I appreciated his focus on keeping me looking natural. I am so so glad I had this done, I feel great and am beyond happy with the results. I will definitely go back for more, as needed, as I trust his work implicitly. Thank you, Dr. Samimi. read more

I am using my daughter's yelp account to do this review as I do not have a yelp account but I wanted to be sure people knew how Ana in my experience was with Dr. Samimi......This was a great experience for me! I had to have my eyelids done. They were obstructing my vision and honestly affecting my self esteem. I was so nervous to have this done and of course nervous about my results. Doctor Samimi made me feel like we were friends and each time I visited him he asked me questions about my family and he remembered things about me that I forgot I shared. I am so happy with my results. I would recommend him to anyone who is considering surgery of any kind. He made it easy and comfortable and I cannot wait to put mascara on my eyelashes that I haven't seen in 20 years!!! Thanks to Dr Samimi I can see again and when I look in the mirror I like that I don't look sleepy but instead awake and ready to live life! Thank you Dr. Samimi. -Carol Yorba Linda, CA read more
