Dr. Boutros was highly recommend by multiple doctors and friends for rhinoplasty. During my consultation, Dr. Boutros was very professional, patient, and knowledgeable. I recently had my first (ever) cosmetic surgery and my post-op results look incredibly natural. Thank you Dr. Boutros for making me a better version of myself!
