Hi Dr. Schoenfeld, I'm amazed - my face looks so refreshed and no sagging. Thank you - I look healthier and prettier too. When I walked in the house yesterday, my husband said 'you look beautiful', it must be your hair. I decided to keep the filler procedure to myself, and see what kind of unprompted feedback I get. I don't have any bruising and I don't think I'm swollen... really amazing. Thanks again, I'll check in with you in next 6 weeks to see what we should plan to do next per your recommendations. Also, I'll drop off one of our driving club magazines for the porsche club in potomac region- it's a fun a hobby and great social- networking group of folks.

Hi Dr. Schoenfeld,
I'm really happy with the results and highly recommend Dr. Schoenfeld...
Each time I look in the mirror, I feel like I'm dreaming with my eyes open – my new nose is 100 times better after Dr. Schoenfeld performed surgery last month. I'm still the same person, but with RENU-ed zest in every day living. My nose is straight and the nostrils for the first time look normal. I was born with a nasal deformity, and over my 40+ years doctors performed corrective surgery, but no one achieved what Dr. Schoenfeld has done. I breathe and sleep better, and when I wake up, I'm so happy to have my new nose! My family and friends have commented so favorably, they look at me in awe of the change and comment on what a beautiful job and how great I look. I had reservations, and looking back I'm thrilled that I had a team of pros to educate me and lead me to one of the best choices I've ever made.
Don't wait, enjoy life and look your best now, is the best advice I can give you – regardless of your age and gender. If you want my experience in more detail to help with navigating your decision, feel free to contact me – kathleen911@gmail.com.

Hi again, Well... I was at a concert in Dewey last Sunday night (Patty Smith and Scandal... yes, very 80s but I really love their music). Anyway, after the concert, I got to actually meet the band members, which was this huge thrill for me. The fact that the concert and the trip to Dewey were my birthday gifts to myself came up, and I said something about turning 41. The bass guitarist, who was not one second over 30, said to me, "You're kidding! I would have thought you were 31." And I was SO about to blurt out, "WOW, we can really thank my doctor, who just shot me up with Botox the other day!!!" But I managed to just laugh and say thank you and not give up the ghost about the Botox. It was worth every cent of the $375!!! And, no, he was absolutely not hitting on me. So, thank you for your excellent work. I consider this to be a true Botox success story :). Take care,

Good Afternoon,

First of all let me say thank you again for my new nose. This procedure is something I have wanted to do for years. I am very glad I waited because had I not waited I may not have had the nose I have today. It's because of you that I feel this joy and excitement. I can't thank you enough. THANK YOU!!!

Thank you so much,

Dear Dr. Schoenfeld,

All of my life, which is almost twenty-one years now, I've been a happy person who tried to look past the breathing difficulties I experienced and the unfortunate appearance of my very large nose. As I grew older, though, I became more and more bothered by my deviated septum, and in the back of my thoughts I constantly worried and was disappointed with my nose. I felt like I had to apologize for people having to look at me, and I wanted a change. I wished more than anything that I could feel more confident about my facial appearance, but I was scared about the process of surgery, the recuperation time, and the end result. I didn't want people saying to me, Did you get a nose job?

The best decision I ever made was to make an appointment with you. You helped me feel at ease and happy about confronting my fears. Thank you for being so approachable and supportive. I had heard that you were one of the best doctors in the area to go to, and people were right! You and your wonderful staff made me comfortable and excited about my decision to have rhinoplasty and deviated septum surgery. As soon as I woke up from the painless surgery, I could breathe completely freely. Since the recovery, I have never felt so good about myself or more confident about my appearance. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Best Wishes,

Hello Dr. Schoenfeld,

I hope you are doing well.

This message is long over due but I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the rhinoplasty procedure you did for me. When you told me you could make me look "awesome", I really didn't believe you. I thought you were just giving me a sales pitch.

I had a slight curve on nose. People used to say I had a boxer's nose. You straightened out my nose and added a slight tip to it. Now my nose is straight and the tip gives my face a softer look. Now when I look in the mirror I think that I do look "awesome"!

You also performed a procedure on my turbonites(sp). I used to get sinusinfections all the time due to my allergies. Sincemy procedure I haven't had any sinus infections and I'm breathing and feeling great.

You and your staff are really great. After each appointment, I would remember that I had one more question. Your staff would take the time to find the answers to my questions. When I got home I would have more questions. You were very responsive to my emails and phone calls.

I really appreciate what you and your staff have done for me. I definitely believe your work has given me a better quality of life.

Thank you,

Dear Dr. Schoenfeld,

I had a rhinoplasty many years ago that left me disfigured.It was horrifying to looking the mirror after an elective operation, hating what I saw, realizingI made a terrible, irreversible decision for vanity. My original nose may have been a bit too large, but the surgeon made my nose too small and with an odd angle that sapped the character from my face. Structurally, the first surgeon also damaged my nasal valves and tip, and failed to correct my deviated septum. More recently I found myself having troublesupporting glasses.

I had seen several surgeons who had either said my problems were unfixable or who otherwise advised against operating. I despaired for a long time but fortunately I saw Dr. Schoenfeld's name listed in the Washingtonian magazine as one of Washington, DC's top surgeons and made an appointment. From the first visit onward, Dr. Schoenfeld was compassionate and respectful. It was such a relief to find at last a surgeon who not only saw the problems I saw in the mirror -- and those not visible -- but also who said he could fix them.

Given the trauma of my first surgical experience, I was terrified before my revision rhinoplasty and septoplasty but Dr. Schoenfeld made himself available by both email and phone, and was very accepting of my questions and concerns. At no point did he pressure me to have surgery. His staff was also very supportive and attentive. Still I was, frankly, doubtful whether Dr. Schoenfeld, or any surgeon, for that matter could make the incredible revisionshe proposed, and that I would be satisfied.

Fortunately the operation was a complete success. I was able to breathe better within five minutes of waking up from the operation and my nose has been miraculously reshaped so that it better suits the contours of my face. And fortunately my insurance covered the functional portions of the operation.

It is four weeks post-surgery and recovery, although slow,continues apace. The character has been restored to my face and I no longer look in the mirror forlorn. Sometimes I even giggle. I am amazed that anyone could possibly do what Dr. Schoenfeld had done merely by manipulating and rearranging septal tissue. I am so grateful to Dr. Schoenfeld for having healed me both physically and aesthetically.

Dear Dr. Schoenfeld, File this under "Fan Mail!" I am so grateful to you for your professional skills, care, and personal courtesy to my family during the surgery to repair my face. I have recovered in good form and consider myself very fortunate. All the Best,

This is to let you know that which you already knew: what a splendid person and surgeon is your Dr. Schoenfeld. I just met Dr. Schoenfeld about five years ago when I had a serious problem with removed melanoma performed elsewhere which resulted in a collapsed septum and increased difficulty breathing. Having enquired from several doctors as to where I should go, they recommended Dr. Schoenfeld. From our initial visit with him he instilled great confidence and, more importantly, a wonderful, instantaneous rapport and relationship, both with me and my wife, Mary. The surgery was completely successful and my sleeping has been effortless since. Two years ago, I discussed with Dr. Schoenfeld the possibility of a major facial cosmetic surgery. Without pressure or undue persuasion in any way he went through the probability of success, the problems associated with the surgery and the follow up. I decided as I had such confidence with him to go ahead this February last. The operation was completely successful and I feel far more comfortable and uninhibited both by myself and with others. Dr. Schoenfeld is a doctor who epitomizes the proverbial perfect bedside manner. I felt from the beginning, having had ample occasion to talk with him and assess his abilities that I was in good hands and in that assessment I was totally justified. His is a wonderful personality, very positive, very upbeat, which infectiously he imparts to the patient. He is now not just our doctor but a very good friend. If ever his schedule permits, which is doubtful, we have invited him and his family to spend a weekend with us. I hope that may still ultimately be realized. If any of our friends contemplate cosmetic surgery I will take great pleasure in placing them in his competent and caring hands. From our two happy experiences with him, it would be a case of Res Ipsa Loquitur. Sincerely yours,

Dear Dr. Schoenfeld, I wanted to thank you so much for your care and for successfully repairing what three previous surgeons could not. After three failed septoplasty / rhinoplasty surgeries, I was pretty close to giving up and settling for a lifetime of breathing and sleeping difficulties. When you were recommended to me, I was delighted by your enthusiasm, optimism, and confidence in being able to fix all the previous damage. After the surgery, I am happy to report that I feel about 100% better: I can breathe easily, sleep peacefully, and no less important, I am pleased with the way I look! Thank you Dr. Schoenfeld! Sincerely,
