Kibblewhite Douglas J Dr

I Regret For Life to have nose surgery done by Dr Kibble White! My nose is not straight on my face anymore after the surgery, and after I ask him what we can do, he just never care to arrange the follow up appointment for check up that was supposed to be 1 month after the surgery. Disappointed completely

I've had a great experience with Dr. Kibblewhite for my deviated septum surgery. However, what made this experience even better was Chelsea Atchison. She is Dr. Kibblewhites coordinator and she truly cares about the patients and goes above and beyond to help them. I've never had such a great experience with any medical coordinator.

Be very careful getting a septoplasty or rhinoplasty with Kibblewhite. He gave me Empty Nose Syndrome on one of my inferior turbinates doing what was supposed to be a simple septoplasty as a piece of my lower turbinate was cut or irreversibly damaged. The risks of such a surgery were downplayed. The surgery did not even address the breathing issue I had in the first place. He actually caused a nasal valve collapse instead and made my breathing much worse. Thanks to ENS, I now have permanent and irreversible abnormal sensation that leads to nasal pain and discomfort, hypersensitivity to cold air, sensation of excessive airflow 24/7, a bunch of additional issues and there are currently no effective treatments. Risk of damage to my turbinates and that he was operating on them were never mentioned prior to the surgery. In addition, I need to sleep with nasal breath right strips every night to try to redirect the air away from the damaged turbinate site and to open my collapsed nasal valve. I also have really bad snoring problems that I never had prior to his surgery. These surgeries are literally a roll of a dice in terms of their outcome. If you have a bad outcome like me its pretty much irreversible as trying to fix it might only make matters worse or at best it will cost you a fortune to get it fixed properly as only plastic surgeons can fix a collapse and your nose will never look the same with the rib graft they will need to use.

I love Dr. Kibblewhite and his assistant Chelsea. They have helped me tremendously through my journey and I am so grateful for them…

Dr.kibblewhite does amazing work. I felt safe and comfortable, he was easy to trust, kind and caring. Very nice man. Chelsea is also an absolute doll to talk to, love her. Thank you everyone

After two surgeries in Taiwan to fix a breathing issue from birth (one septoplasty botched, the other semi-turbinectomy unnecessary & destructive) my nose was shredded; no cartilage & slightly collapsed on itself. The Taiwanese doctor even cut out a chunk of my left turbinate-FOR NO REASON! Pointless partial turbinectomy. I even paid out of pocket for both those surgeries. Nightmare. After ten years my symptoms were just life ruining. Kibblewhite gave me my third & final surgery that literally saved my life. (None of the surgeries were cosmetic, solely to improve breathing on the left side & sleeping) HE SAVED MY LIFE! A whole new nose with a cartilage implant to hold the left nostril up when I inhale. My sense of smell & wellbeing has returned. I was even lucky to get ahead in the wait times because someone cancelled their surgery! Amazing. The system works.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Doctor Kibblewhite and his assistant Chelsea. And to be frank I’m very confused about some of these other less than positive reviews. I guess everyone has their own experience and opinion? Just seems odd to me based on my experience.

A year ago I had my consult with them for a functional rhinoplasty. I had a couple issues. 1. My deviated septum and 2. My left nose bone was pushed into the right from injury.

The majority of my concerns were the breathing issues I was experiencing but there was also a cosmetic aspect as well due to my nose looking very different after my injury.

I just had my surgery two weeks ago. The only reason it took so long for me to have the surgery is because I had medications to come off prior to it. If it wasn’t for that I would have gotten surgery within a couple months. Doctor Kibblewhite and Chelsea were both very supportive and understanding with this process.

Results aside, my experience with both of them was nothing but positive. Chelsea is the sweetest. She is extremely friendly, helpful and patient, answering any questions I had. Doctor Kibblewhite has great bedside manner, understood my concerns and the result I was looking for and delivered. He also made some dad jokes that went over my head in the moment lol.

Now about the results. Like I said these after photos are taken only 2 weeks post surgery so it will continue to get better but it’s safe to say I’m obsessed already. I’ve always been one to heal quite quickly, but everybody’s body is different. So bruising and swelling may be more significant or less depending on the individual. The nose takes a whole year to fully heal and see the final result! The longest recovery for any surgery. I’m glad Doctor Kibblewhite warned me of the swelling so I wouldn’t judge the results prior to proper healing.

I can breathe sooo much better already (and I’m still swollen) and I think the balance of my face has drastically improved. I’m so happy, thanks so much to the team, and sorry for the novel lol.

Awesome Physician! Going on 4 years after Dr. Kibblewhite fixed my Deviated Septum and haven’t looked back. My nose is straight and more importantly I no longer stuggle to breath. Can’t recommend him enough!

I recently had Septoplasty with Dr. Kibblewhite and I highly recommend for his professionalism and skills. I’m breathing better than ever.

Chelsea, the Surgical coordinator made the whole process possible in timely manner and smooth.

Dr. Kibblewhite is Jedi level. Great sense of humor, very positive, and answered every question I had about the process. Have recommended him to everyone I've run into since. They even give out popsicles after the procedure!

Dr. Kibblewhite did an amazing job on my nose. Not only is it significantly straighter, but I can now breathe through both of my nostrils. Would strongly recommend him to anyone who is looking for reconstructive nose surgery. Extremely happy with the end result!
