Dr. George H. Landis, MD Reviews

My worst nightmare.I had my surgery over 2 years ago now & its time I accept the results. I waited to write my review for two reason... 1. Hoping it needed time to heal fully & 2. Because I didnt want to relieve/remind myself how I feel about it.It saddens me to say my results were my worst nightmare. I went in because of a referral and I trusted it. My septo-rhinoplasty surgery was done with Dr. Landis at Landis Plastic Surgery. My initial consult was great, He was very kind, soft spoken with wonderful bedside manners (as a nurse, that made me feel very comfortable) and seemed like He knew what he was talking about when it came to anatomy. I was VERY nervous about the surgery just like anyone else. During both my first and second consult I couldnt stress enough how I wanted my results very subtle and very natural. My main concern was septoplasty. Due to the trauma when the deviated septum occurred, I formed a slight bump on the bridge of my nose. I asked to simply shave off the bump during the surgery and even expressed that I didnt want too much shaved off because it would form a dip which would be very unnatural to my face. Dr. Landis told me septo-rhinoplasty are often done together and that would be possible. But He really emphasized that I needed my nose broken completely and brought together, as well as have my tip redone. I continued to explain my fears, that it would change the appearance of my face which I was terrified of. I did not want anything more done than what was medically necessary and to shave the bump. Dr. Landis explained that if I dont completely redo my nose, shaving off the slight bump will make it look stubby. He kept emphasizing the need to change everything or else my proportions would be off and it would look bad. This also meant that the suggested rhinoplasty would not be covered by my insurance and would be an additional charge for a full rhinoplasty. I was having a hard time with this but I trusted his professional option. I moved forward with Dr. Landiss recommendation because I was so scared of results looking unnatural to my face. Immediately after surgery, although partially covered with bandages, my nose was looking asymmetrical and wide. I continued to reassure myself that this was just swelling, as noses take a long time to heal. When the bruising went down & bandages came off...it was a nightmare. At the follow up appt with Dr. Landis, He was very quiet like he knew He botched it. He stated there was noticeable asymmetry in the nostrils and nothing could be done about that but he was pleased the little bump was gone. I waited and waited now 2 years for swelling to go down, hoping it would just get better. Unfortunately I am left botched. How does my nose now look worse than it ever did before the surgery??? I NEVER wanted him to touch my tip or break my nose. It now looks wide and the tip looks so un-proportional to the nostrils. I am in tears writing this. Ive avoided this review because it meant reliving this nightmare. Its been two years and I dont recognize myself in the mirror. I loved my tip & my nose, I simply asked to shave the bump. Now, its uneven and although he supposedly made it smaller, due to improper proportions, it looks so much larger on my face. Why would someone up-sell a patient on something they didnt need?? The thought of me never looking like myself breaks my heart.Just because a doctor has good bedside manners and performs procedures SAFELY DOES NOT MEAN they have an eye for aesthetics. This is all so hard to believe & nothing speaks louder than pictures. Attached is a before of my nose and after. I would do anything to take this all back & not have this surgery with this doctor. If you have a nose emergency, Im sure He would do a great job saving your nose but if you want it to look good, this is the wrong doctor!

I had a breast reduction surgery in November of 2018 and from the first visit to current I am extremely pleased with how patient and kind Dr. Landis has been. He answered all my questions and I am so happy with how much relief I have in my back from the surgery and the girls look beautiful too :) I so thankful to have had him as my surgeon!!

I am thrilled with the results from my tummy tuck which was performed by Dr. George Landis. Scars are invisible. He is a highly skilled surgeon and I highly recommend him.
