Every surgeon is going to have their fair share of both glowing reviews and bad ones, so picking the absolute "best" is almost impossible. If I were you, I'd start by looking them up online—check out their published work and papers first. Once you've narrowed it down to maybe two or three options, go ahead and schedule consultations. You need to see who you actually vibe with most. That’s basically how I handled it. 😁
I agree. I'm planning to drop by and see Dr. Munitić and Dr. Tončić sometime between today and tomorrow. To be honest, I haven't heard a single bad thing about Munitić, which is honestly a miracle since you can find something negative about anyone—especially someone who’s been in the game for over 30 years. He clearly knows his stuff. As for Tončić, I’m still a little skeptical, but he might just be a solid choice.
Based on everything I’ve read in this thread over the last two years, I definitely wouldn't recommend leaving anything to chance with Glumičić, Ostojić, Klapan, or Žgaraljdić. In my experience following these discussions, they seem to rack up the most complaints, and people have shared a lot of negative feedback regarding them. I'm sure there are plenty of patients who were perfectly happy, but for me, they just feel like too much of a risk. That’s just my take, though.
Look, at the end of the day, it’s on you to do the legwork. You need to ask around, hear about other people's experiences, and gather as much intel as possible. Seriously, check out their websites or Facebook pages—those can tell you a lot. I’ve actually been able to figure out certain surgeons just by looking through their photo albums. It’s pretty obvious that some of them just use the exact same template for every single patient, which makes me think they aren't really listening to what the patient actually wants. Of course, it goes both ways; a patient has to listen to the surgeon too and realize that maybe some requests just aren't realistic. But still, you'll see cases where everyone ends up with this identical upturned nose, whether it actually suits them or not. Some surgeons barely change anything at all, while then there are others whose work I actually quite like.
Or maybe I should just read up on those experiences where a specific surgeon delivers an amazing aesthetic result, but at the cost of completely wrecking the nose's function. That’s obviously something nobody wants, and honestly, functionality really ought to be more important than just how the nose looks.
Look, things like this take some actual time to research properly. Just give yourself some space, take it slow, and try to be smart about it! 😍 I'm still on the hunt too, and honestly, I'm just waiting to land a job. Since that's probably not happening anytime soon, unfortunately. 😛 I’m hoping I can actually use this time to find what I'm looking for, instead of just charging blindly into the fog like some desperate fool because I can't stand waiting any longer. 🙂 If I could wait this long, I can hang on a little longer! You should do the same—don't let it get to you! 🙂
