    Dr. Cohen, and the entire staff at Advanced ENT and Facial Plastic Surgery have been great! I've…read moresuffered from ear nose and throat problems/infections the past 5 years. I've been to other otolaryngologists prior to seeing Dr. Cohen and I was always disappointed with the treatment/results. Dr. Cohen took the time to treat my symptoms prior to recommending surgery. I'm 6 weeks out from my surgery and feel amazing! He did for me in 6 months what other doctors could not do in 5 years. The office staff is always very helpful both prior to and post my operation. I've seen many examples, good and bad. This practice is so exceptional that I have found it impossible to replicate by other ENT's. Thank you all on a job well done and a level of service and competence that pleasantly fulfilled my expectations.

I came to Dr. Cohen feeling overwhelmed, but from the very first visit, I knew I was in the right hands. Dr. Cohen was incredibly thorough and compassionate. He took the time to walk me through the damage, explain the surgical plan in clear terms, and answer all my questions with patience and confidence. I felt completely supported going into surgery. The procedure went smoothly, and the recovery process was very manageable thanks to the clear guidance and support from Dr. Cohen and his team. The results have truly been life-changing -- my breathing is dramatically improved, and the visible curve and collapse are gone. My nose looks natural, balanced, and like me again. Dr. Cohen not only repaired the damage but helped restore my confidence and comfort. I'm beyond grateful and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of ENT care or reconstructive nasal surgery. He is a true expert who cares deeply about his patients and their outcomes.

    The kind of surgeon you hope you'll never need -- but feel incredibly lucky to find when you do…read more I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Andres Taleisnik. From the moment I met him, I knew I was in expert hands -- but it wasn't just his impressive background (and yes, his resume is jaw-dropping). It was his calm, steady demeanor, his willingness to listen, and the way he spoke to me like a human being, not just another chart. I came in for carpal tunnel surgery after years of pain, numbness, and frustrating experiences that made me question whether I was being taken seriously. Dr. Taleisnik took one look at my tests and my story and confirmed what I had always known in my gut: the pain was real, and it was time to fix it -- for good. The surgery itself was precise, professional, and compassionate from start to finish. The incision was placed along the natural line in my hand -- I barely notice it now. He took great care to reduce trauma to surrounding tissue, and while recovery is always a journey, I've felt seen and supported every step of the way. Even the stitching -- which I initially thought looked "odd" -- was done with calculated expertise to reduce tension and promote faster healing. It worked. What sets Dr. Taleisnik apart isn't just his training (Princeton, UCLA, a fellowship at one of the top hand surgery centers in the country). It's the combination of that world-class skill with a humble, grounded bedside manner. He explains things clearly, without ego or condescension. He makes you feel like your recovery matters just as much as your results. As someone whose job depends on the use of my hands -- and as someone who deals with a lot of sensory sensitivity -- this surgery wasn't just about mobility. It was about dignity, survival, and getting my life back. Dr. Taleisnik made that possible. If you're in need of a hand surgeon, run, don't walk. You'd be hard-pressed to find a more qualified, thoughtful, and skilled surgeon anywhere in the country -- and believe me, I looked. Thank you, Dr. Taleisnik. For your hands, your heart, and your healing. I trusted you with my future -- and you gave it back to me I know for sure I'll probably be back in 2027 for my right hand. Thank you doc.

    Please do not use this doctor at all for you cosmetic surgery…read more I had a thigh lift and liposuction on hips. After procedure I was draining like a faucet from my incisions. Every follow up I went with my husband and Dr. Talesnik continue to say is normal and it's the lidocaine. I ended up with a 104 fever and called him and said it was probably covid. When I arrived to the ER I was rushed right away and was asked if I went out of the country because I was botched. I said no, and gave them told them it was Dr. Taleisnik who performed it and is across the street. He came to the ER was so rude to everyone in the hospital and had the nerve to tell us and my nurse that he was working for free, which I have PPO and not to mention I payed him in cash $15k, for the procedure. They sat my husband down and while I was screaming due to the pain and crying. Doctors told my husband that I have a severe sepsis, and can lead to death. I had to get and emergency surgery and be reopened on the same area he performed for my thigh lift. He was rude to the nurses and my husband when off on him in a professional way and informed him he has no right to treat the medical staff that way but my life is in danger because of him. The OR team did t know what procedure they we're doing g on me and we're in shock of how unprofessional he was. I was so scared I was going to die. After surgery, I had to be given blood transfusion daily. The surgery was so painful and had to receive home care because he left me completely open. I fired him as my doctor for the hospital and seen another doctor. Doctor was in shock of what he did. It was the worse 5 months of my life. I couldn't walk and my husband was my caregiver. Now this happened in September 2021. I was left with severe scar tissue, and limited mobility. Now is 2023 and have to get surgery because not only could I have of died in 2021 because of him but now I have to get surgery due to the severe trauma of scar tissue he left for my thigh lift . This is so upsetting how he can get away with this. Please if you're planning to use do not. I beg do not. He almost cause me my life and now I got to surgery because of him. If you're Looking for a cosmetic surgeon, go to Dr. Robert Wald I'm Fullerton. I've used Dr Wald, but didn't this time because he was booked and I was Planning to look good for a vacation we had planned. But that vacation was cancele. The pictures I'm posting are not even the worse that I was left with. I can show the severity of the other ones due to the areas there at. I had these open holes which where all I've my panty line for 5 months. I hope that you reconsider this awful doctor and and don't become a victim like I did. The worse part is he got away and I couldn't get my money back. This is also not a review that is false. I beg you to run and do not step foot in his office. Don't let him touch you He ruined my life My entire panty line is completely scarred because of what he did to me. Don't be a victim and don't believe anything or his staff. His staff when I called to complain or would go to follow ups had the nerve to say I was dramatic and next thing you know I'm fighting for my life. Don't use him, even if you think he's given you deal, ask yourself what if this can be me? I can be a victim

    Recommendation for surgeon, Dr. Faramarz Shabdiz from patient, Suzanne Hawley…read more.. I crossed paths with Dr. Shabdiz because I had a basal cell cancer on my nose. Right from the get-go, I was impressed. The Entrust Medical Group has their headquarters in St. Joseph Pavilion on La Veta in Orange and like his surroundings, I soon found out that Dr. Shabdiz is classy. When he entered the examining room, he actually glowed. I felt (and saw) his warm, golden aura. He smiled like he really meant it and when he looked at my cancer, I knew he had razor sharp eyes. Within two minutes, I figured it out: I was in good hands. His lovely assistant, Roxanna Sanchez, (who has been with him for about eight years... doesn't that speak volumes about what a great boss he is?) immediately scheduled the procedure with the La Veta Surgical Center and I would be in-and-out in one afternoon. When I arrived, I quickly met my pre-op nurse, Beth, whose consultation put me at ease. As she prepped me, I was delighted that she had a joyful, disarming personality. Were we having fun? Absolutely! She handed me off to Ameir, my surgical nurse, who would be by my side as we segued into the operating room. (Somehow, as he was telling me what to expect, we discovered that we were both passionate cooks and he committed to memory a recipe I'd invented - "Suzanne's Salmon.") Ameir was disarming, too, and I happily noted that I was not stressed in the least. Dr. Shabdiz frequently buzzed by my curtained domicile and, there it was again, that golden aura that followed him everywhere. The female anesthesiologist, Dr. Nicolai, stopped in to introduce herself and before I knew it, I was on the operating table. I trusted these people. I was in loving hands. My next experience was coming out of anesthesia in the recovery room and, whoopee, as we'd arranged, there was my beautiful daughter Kirsten and my oh-so-pretty, rambunctious, three-year-old granddaughter, Cheyenne Skye. They'd both come from Los Angeles to celebrate my new nose that had borrowed some skin from behind my right ear. So, a week later, I was back at Dr. Shabdiz's office and he deemed my recovery thus far as perfect. He announced that there wouldn't be a trace of the graft in three to six months. But, wait a minute! I didn't want this man to depart from my life. I wrote him a letter describing my successful journalistic writing career and told him I was now building a book of memoirs and collaborating on a movie script. Outrageously healthy at 71, I had another 20 years or so of writing left in me - and, I added, "one more torrid love affair." After the nose had healed, Dr. Shabdiz and I would meet again. I would be able to afford a facelift from him and wouldn't that pull out all the stops in my life? You see, when you meet someone with an incredible aura, you know you will be friends for life. I cannot wait to be back at the La Veta Surgical Center for my next appointment with this fabulous doctor and his great support team!

    Front office staff is friendly and helpful. Dr. Shabdiz though has a rather poor bedside manner. He…read moreis dismissive, condescending, and rushes through his appointments, despite the significant cost that is charged to see him. Additionally, his nasal and ear assessment was surprisingly painful. Overall, after two appointments, we will seek out a different ENT. I noticed that his website focuses heavily on plastic surgery. Perhaps he is uninterested in the more standard ENT patients and this informs his care.
