Sam Most MD Reviews

Stephen Valgos

I have had three nose reconstruction surgeries due to a wrestling injury almost twenty five years ago! I havent been able to breathe out of both nostrils for almost seven years, and after a number of doctors said they could not do the work on my nose, and that I would need someone who does TV shows about reconstruction to fix my nose, Dr. Most took the job! I could not possibly be more pleased with not only the final outcome of being able to breathe again, sleep soundly again, and feel confident when public speaking again, but also with Dr. Mosts professionalism, his teams friendliness, and their offices attentiveness to my every need. I never had to wait when arriving for my appointment, was always responded to through the app or a phone call within hours if I had a concern, and was always treated with dignity and respect. Every person I met, from the front desk to Dr. Most himself, was polite, helpful, humorous, and kind. This place is amazing. Thank you, team, for all youve done for me, my wife (who doesnt kick me at night and tell me to turn over anymore), and my audience who has to look at me when I give lectures and retreats! Simply amazing. Thank you! I wish there were more than five stars to give!

Dr. Sam Most is amazing surgeon. I am so grateful I went to him for nasal obstruction/ rhinoplasty. Before surgery I was very anxious. Dr. Most made me felt relax and comfortable. He's very understanding and he listens. After surgery the recovery was a piece of cake. No bruising, minimal swelling and no complications. Over all the results is amazing I still can't stop looking in the mirror. I get complimented all the time. Thank you Dr. Most you are gifted and talented and I'm so happy I pick you to be my surgeon. May God continue to bless you're hands. You change my life.

I broke my nose while playing soccer which resulted in not only terrible breathing problems but the overall appearance of my nose was hideous. At 15, I not only dealt with not being able to breathe through my nose but the insecurity of having a big nose. After seeing a few surgeons, none of them made me feel comfortable about the procedure. I was referred to Dr. Most by one of my doctors when meeting Dr. Most he was very understanding and made me feel very comfortable and safe. When Dr. Most performed surgery on my nose, not only did he correct my breathing problem but gave me an amazing nose that fits my face. Dr. Most takes a lot of pride in his work and truly takes the time to listen to his patients. His staff is exceptionally professional and friendly, everyone went out of their way to make me feel comfortable. The results are outstanding and I am so very satisfied with not only the appearance of my nose but my breathing. I highly recommend Dr. Most.

We had several choices for a Rhinoplasty surgeon, and we were aware that many people had to redo their surgery due to unsatisfactory results. However, after going with Dr. Most, we knew that he is one of the best doctors we've gone to.From our first appointment through the last checkup 6 months after the procedure, we've been thoroughly happy with him. He takes all the time needed to make us understand what we should expect, and he was on the spot. The result was better than expected.I can describe him as an experienced master surgeon who i a kind and courteous professional.

Justin Gasparovic

Dr. Most is a miracle worker. Prior to my surgery, I had a severely deviated septum that I had spent all my life dealing with. He straightened my nose drastically and improved the overall appearance as well. Couldnt be happier with how the surgery went!

I am a 67 year old woman, living in the Bay Area, who was feeling a lot younger than I looked. I had thought about having a facelift for many years and decided that now was the time. I wanted a more refreshed look without saggy eyelids and eye bags, and a droopy neck. I did lots of research, scouring every plastic surgeons photos and videos, and reading as much as I could about facelifts. I wanted an experienced plastic surgeon whose results didn't looked pulled or strange. I decided that Dr. Most met those criterion and more. Dr. Most is the Chief of Plastic Surgery at Stanford with many years of experience, along with a gentle hand and a kind and very gentlemanly manner. He never once tried to talk me into anything I didn't want. Nor, did he promise to turn me into a movie star. I had my facelift 3 months ago and couldn't be happier with the results. When I look at my before and after photos, I am amazed. I got the refreshed look I was hoping for. I highly recommend this very skilled surgeon. Thank you Dr. Most for doing great work!

Thank you Dr. Most for helping me breath normal I never knew the feeling until now! God bless you

Dr. Most reconstructed my nose after a difficult Mohs surgery. My nose, in my opinion, actually looks better after Dr. Most performed his magic. Highly, highly recommend him.

Where do I start? To make a long story short I had an awful looking big nose and I had a lot of trouble breathing since my injuries when I was little. I am now 16 and after seeing so many doctors throughout my life and being told my nose is too severe and that they can't fix it until I was referred to Dr. Most. The moment I talked to him and told him my story, he was very understanding and tried to help me the most. I felt very safe and totally trusted him right away. As a 16 year old, you would imagine I would be very anxious and nervous to go into operation but with Dr. Most, I felt very safe and knew that everything was going to be okay no doubt. Also, the team around Dr. Most is amazing and very helpful and comforting. My surgery took more hours than it should because Dr. Most wanted to make sure all the little details are taken care off and that everything was perfect. I could not be more thankful for that and if that doesn't show how good of a doctor he is I don't know what does. After my surgery, the recovery was not painful what so ever but it was uncomfortable the first week. I only got swollen but no pain even without painkillers. After my cast was off, my nose was pretty swollen but it faded after two weeks and it still is. The results were amazing, I am so satisfied with the results. Everybody was so shocked with the results including me because I had such a bad nose no one expected me to get the results I did with only one surgery. Overall Dr. Most is amazing and words can't explain how grateful I am to have him operate on my nose. And if you are wondering whether you should get a surgery with dr. Most or not I would say definitely do not hesitate, 10/10 would recommend.

I had rhinoplastic surgery done by Dr. Most and I am very satisfied and happy with the result. The procedure included three modifications; straightening the bridge, nose tip remodeling, and nostril size reduction. Dr. Most and staff made sure I always felt in good hands and taken care of before, during, and after the procedure. He listened carefully to all my questions and concerns and responded in a professional but also kind and caring way. For the result achieved and the customer care I highly recommend Dr. Most as a plastic surgeon.

Clare T

Dr. Most did a fantastic job on my nose. It is very natural looking, just the way I had wanted, with just the right amount of character. Dr. Most and his staff are great and very helpful. I was in good hands because Dr Most made sure there is optimal, if not, maximal balance in aesthetic and function of the outcome for my nose.

Casy N

I had rhinoplasty done at this clinic. Great results. Doctor Most did a wonderful job correcting my nose. Exactly what he promised. Staff members were so nice especially the recovery nurse. Loved her. I would recommend this clinic 100%, nothing could go wrong. Very professional and talented doctor.

Jennifer Mitchell

Extremely professional, highly skilled and extremely personal, kind and understanding. Dr. Most corrected my right collapsed nostril. I am so thankful to be able to breath freely again. I highly recommend him

brendan troy

I had never had surgery before and Dr. Most really put my mind at ease. I wasnt expecting the procedure to go that well and I am very happy with the end result!

Jane Wilson

I have had 2 significant facial surgeries with Dr Most and both exceeded my expectations. He is an artist in his work, making subtle changes that amplified my best features while making the corrections that I desired. I am so happy with the results! I get compliments from friends who notice the difference, saying that I look so rested and refreshed, and from strangers who say I look much younger than my age. This has built my confidence and enabled me to try new things with less hesitation - I'm so grateful to be in Dr Most's good hands and I highly recommend him!

Rebecca Smith

Dr. Most is the best. I have been going to him since 2008. He does exceptional work and is a caring and considerate doctor. He always gives you his full attention, and takes the time to address any questions or concerns you have as a patient. I can't imagine a better doctor.

Michael Heffner

Two amazing accomplishments by this incredibly talented, caring specialist: Dr. Most not only enabled me to use my nose again after a year with blocked airways from a truck vs bike injury (guess which I was...), he made me look normal again. This cosmetic miracle is as genius as his restoration of my ability to smell, breathe, and enjoy normal sleep patterns again...

Amber Tran

My daughter recently had an Otoplasty done by Dr Most and she is very happy with the results. Just a little over a month post surgery and healing is great without complications. My daughter has her hair up all the time now because she's feeling great about the way she looks. Dr Most is very nice, caring, and professional. We have great confidence in his skills. He actually performed this procedure on several of my family members, and the result of his work is excellent every time. I would highly recommend him to anyone! Thanks Dr Most!

BB Cali

Stellar bedside manner and expertise! Highly recommend Dr. Most because he truly cares about his patients and the outcome of his work. A+!!

Miranda

I am 100% satisfied with the reaults of my procedure performed by Dr.Most. I did online research before making my selection for a doctor. I found him to be the best qualified along with having extensive experience. He is easy to talk with and I felt at ease with him and his staff. Thank you Dr. Most.

Sahib Gill

Dr. Most did a phenomenal job with my surgery. He was extremely courteous and attentive and definitely knew what he was doing. If I texted him any questions he would reply within 5 minutes and he made the recovery very tolerable.

Mariella Medina

Excellent service and care from the staff at the front desk with easy check in and out. Dr. Most is very thorough, honest in giving his opinion and very professional. The location and office is very modern and clean.Thank you for your service!

Monica Tan

I wish I had my deviated septum surgery 20 years ago. I can finally exercise without breathing through my mouth. I can sleep without snoring like a bear (not attractive on a woman). Dr Most is professional but also very approachable and easy to talk to. He understood exactly what I wanted and did not push me to do anything that I did not want. I've referred a couple of friends to Dr Most. One has already had deviated septum surgery but is having some issues and wanted a second opinion. I cannot say enough about Dr Most and his amazing team!!

Janelle Austin

Had rhinoplasty and chin implant at University of Washington by Dr. Most in 2005. He is an excellent surgeon and I am extremely happy with the results. He gave me the nose I always wanted. I recommend a surgeon who specializes in the one area, facial, than a general plastic surgeon.

Teresa Villalobos

I had a brow lift and there was pain on the day of the procedure , but it was practically pain free after that . The results are very natural looking I am very happy with it.

Jeff Freburg

Dr. Most is my favorite Dr. he fixed my broken nose and made it look awesome! Best bed side manor and very technical I'm a techie so I really appreciate that.

Luis Lara

Dr. Most provides friendly and kind care! Ive had amazing results from my nerve transfer 6 months ago. Dr. Most truly amazing!

Lonny England

Dr Most is a fantastic doctor who is a Board Certified Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon at Stanford University School of Medicine. I have had a problem breathing out of my nose due to an injury I had as a child. I went to another Reconstructive Surgeon in the area over 10 years ago to correct the problem but was greatly disappointed with the result. I have suffered from sleep apnea for the past 25 years, but have been unable until now to use the CPAP machine at night to get deep restful sleep. I almost gave up trying to fix my nose until I met Dr Most who was highly recommended to me by several other doctors. I was extremely impressed with Dr Most and his staff when I first met them. They did a thorough examination on my nose and assured me that my nose was definitely fixable. In fact, Dr Most felt that when my deviated septum was corrected It would automatically straighten the shape of my nose at the same time. I then agreed to have the surgery. The surgery was painless and the recovery was easy. Best of all I could actually breathe through my nose. As an added bonus my nose looks terrific. Its the best looking thing on my face now. I only wish I could make the rest of my face look as good. I cant say enough kind things about Dr Most. He is such a perfectionist as a surgeon and a very kind man. I would highly recommend him to anyone with any type of facial problem. Sincerely,Lonny England

Sara Herrera

Dr. Most, is a amazing at what he does ! I had my rhinoplasty done by him, and he did a great job looks very natural. Im very satisfied with his work .

Morgan Kleiderlein

Dr. Most is an incredibly skillled surgeon. I had a prior procedure to fix my septum that ultimately wasnt successful. I put off the revision surgery for years, but know what I know now, I should have done it sooner. Dr. Most listened to my goals as far as functionality and aesthetics and developed a revision septoplasty/rhinoplasty plan that I felt comfortable with. I went to a few surgeons prior to him and he was the only one who truly heard what I said. The surgery was seamless and the recovery was quick. I even went to a party 10 days after and no one suspected I had surgery. Everything is healing up so nicely and the scars are minimal. He is truly skilled in both the functionality and aesthetics, so if youre looking for a comprehensive result I highly recommend him.

Sara Uz

I had a really good experience with Dr. Most! He answered all my questions and my surgery went well. I can basically breathe perfectly now!

Jessica Weil

Dr. Most did my rhinoplasty 5 weeks ago and the result was phenomenal and far exceeded my expectations! He really listened to what I wanted and set realistic expectations for the results that I should expect. He was kind, caring, patient and most importantly, very talented. Even though I am still healing and can only expect the final results to be even better, I am so incredibly happy, I honestly feel like a new person. I look totally natural even though the change was very significant and I already feel like I've had this nose for a long time. This was truly a life changing decision for me and I can't begin to express my gratitude for Dr. Most's work...If you are thinking of making this change, you should for sure meet with him, he is amazing!!

Laura H

I would highly recommend Dr. Most. He is exceptionally skilled, and I am thrilled with my results.

Carrie Green-Zinn

I discussed my breathing, allergy, and apnea issues with many doctors over the course of many years. It wasnt until I met with doctors Hwang and Most at Stanford that I felt confident and listened to. I am extremely happy with the results of my septo/rhinoplasty and sinus/turbinate surgery. I can breathe normally and my nose looks great!

BILL BARNES

I felt privileged to have Dr. Sam Most perform the facial reconstruction surgery that allowed me to have 'perfect' results without a doubt. All of the staff are so professional, and feel this facility and Dr. Most is the best that the USA has to offer.

Arian Rezai

I initially went to Sam Most from a third party who highly recommended him due to his detailed cosmetic work. I had a deviated septum and a ball on the tip of my nose covering my nostrils. Dr. Most was able to preform a septo rihnoplasty procedure.After my surgery I am pleased with the phenomenal results. Dr.Most improved my breathing and made a narrow thiner nose with a tip reduction. I can breathe through my nose and absolutely pleased with the cosmetic results and to top it off it looks so natural. DR.Most really changed the nose but makes it look completely natural to your facial appearance. I highly reccomend him for future rihnoplasties.

I seriously question the judgment of an M.D., who operates a plastic surgery clinic as it was a teaching hospital. It is an impersonal visit during which he speaks to the NP in training and talks over your head. The imaging is pathetic at best--and you waited almost 2 hours to be seen. Couldn't be any worse.

For over 3 yearsI have been going to Dr. Most and I can not say enough good thing about him and his team. If you are considering any major (i.e.surgery) and/or minor (i.e.fillers/injections) facial procedures, you should see Dr. Most. Here are the reasons why Dr. Most is my #1 go to facial plastic surgeon:1) He is a highly trained specialist in aesthetic plastic surgery of the head and neck ( don't see a cosmetic surgeon who works on other parts of the body - this is your face!) 2) His results are natural ( not pulled or over done). I am extremely happy with my results!!!! A lot of my friends are amazed on how well I look for my age. ( to a few people I tell them that it is just 'good genes' ; ) )3)He is very easy to talk to, and will be honest if you need a procedure or not. I like it when a doctor will say NO and tell you why they won't do it.5) His staff, Amy , Mia and Monica are amazing! Super friendly and very helpful. 6) Not only is Dr. Most smart and well respected in his field, he has a good sense of humor which can help during tense times.

I had been debating getting a rhinoplasty for years but once I finally decided to go through with it, I did extensive research on which doctor would be the best fit. After much research I decided to make a consultation with Dr. Most. Going into the office his entire staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. The overall environment was very comfortable which was important to me since this was my first time doing anything like this. Dr. Most did a thorough assessment of what he thought would look appropriate for my face shape, size etc. He was very adamant about not making my nose too small and saying he always strives for a more natural appearance. Dr. Most's results far exceeded anything I could have ever asked for and 5 stars doesn't begin to describe how talented he really is. His work is so flawless and natural that many of my long time friends didn't even notice I had a rhinoplasty! This surgery will forever positively change my outlook on myself and I couldn't image how different my life would've been if I hadn't gone to him.

Doctor Most is more than amazing. I am a 26 y/o female and I had a Septoplasty/turbinate reduction surgery with Doctor Most on April/2017. I had a severe deviated septum and Ive had issues with nasal congestion ever since I was a kid to the point that I was not able to breath without using Afrin every day and night. My deviated Septum had affected my sleep quality, my endurance in playing sports and it had affected my everyday life. I searched and visited so many surgeons and it took me years to find someone that I could trust. From the initial consultation appointment that I had with Doctor Most, he told me that I need to do a septoplasty. Doctor Most is the smartest, most caring and the most professional doctor I have ever seen. His whole team is amazing, from Amy who was the scheduler for my surgery and was beyond helpful to me to his whole office team, all his nurses and medical assistants are awesome.The surgery itself was unbelievably easy and with no complications. Right before the surgery I was terrified and very nervous, but Doctor Most and his team assured me that they are watching over me and taking care of me and that the surgery will be successful. The surgery took about 2 hours and right when I woke up from the anesthesia I could breathe! Its crazy that I could breathe better, while having the splints inside my nose, than I could 3 hours earlier before the surgery was done. After I got home I had no bleeding, no red eyes, no bruises or any other types of complication which was surprising to me because my deviated septum was complicated. I took pain killers for 2 days just to prevent any pain but I really didnt have any pain at all. After a week when the splints where removed from my nose (removing them wasnt painful or hard at all) It was the best feeling in the world being able to breath Like I had never experienced in my life. Today Im posting this review 6 months after the surgery and ever since that day I havent had a single day of having trouble breathing or experiencing congestions. Even the time that I caught a cold 2 months ago, I was still able to breath without needing to use Afrin. My deviated septum was so bad that it was noticeable by looking at my nose, since it looked off centered. Even though I had septoplasty and not a rhinoplasty, my nose looks straight from the outside and just the way I always wanted it to look.Overall to anyone who needs a septoplasty/rhinoplasty I strongly recommend Doctor Most and I couldnt be happier with my experience than I am today. Thanks Doctor Most for everything you did for me.

Genna Dove

Dr Most is extremely talented at what he does. My surgery was painless and my scarring and bruising were so minimal I couldn't even believe it. In fact the moment I woke up from anesthesia, I was ready to run a marathon, lol. I would highly recommend Dr. Most to anyone. He's not just in this business to make money, he's in it to teach the future surgeons of the world. You can really tell Stanford University cares about their patients because every time you step foot inside they are handing you surveys asking about their cleanliness, staff, etc and your satisfaction with everything. Don't take chances with cheap doctors who don't work toward a cause. Dr. Most is the only person I would trust with something as important as your face.
