Testimonials

Hi Dr Rino,

About two years ago you performed rhinoplasty on my wife. I want to inform you how grateful we are with the result you gave my wife. I was able to see the result had help her a lot with her self. Here in California everyone give her compliment and no one was able to notice that she had something done. It looks so natural, I have to say that I though my wife looks ok before surgery. But now, she looks great. We are both happy doctor. From the beginning until now my wife has been VERY VERY pleased with the outcome. In fact she was very happy with all aspects of the process, most especially your staff.

You service is beyond expectation, you not only took care of my wife when she follow up, you also had your staff visit her when she needs assistance or any personal concern. Which I find very caring.

Thank you and give my regards to your wonderful staff.

Hi Dr. Lorenzo,

Hope all is well. Just would like to share a little bit of my experence with your patients as it made a huge impact in my life and my family as well. I was searching for a good doctor that would “magically” give me a “renewed” nose without looking like I got it done. Your website came up and showed pictures of patients and I was blown away. You were the only doctor I consulted so I hope those pic were not altered. Little did I know that there was an interview and you looked verrrrry serious. I was not prepared for it so it was nerve wracking like a job interview to see if I was a good candidate. I guess I passed and everything was explained. I showed pictures of a natural looking and not the high-towered bridge and you made it possible. After the surgery, I was really amazed and you told me, “Ang ganda mo na mabubuntis ka ulet” and voila, I got pregnant after my 18yo!!! For 4 years, this little munchkin preferred breastfeeding making me pay you another visit for a different surgery and this time for breast augmentation. I wanted to look like I was naturally blessed with big breast and again, you made it happen. Not just me who was was very ecstatic with the result but my persistent hubby as well.

On my next tummy tuck surgery, it will definitely be you, Dr. L!!!

Thank you to the coolest doctor I have ever met!!!

PS. Please send my regards to Nurse Laila, Nurse Fionna and Ate Marlene. They took care of me and very helpful with answering all my (million) questions and concerns.

Your patron patient,

Dear Dr Lorenzo —

Hello. How are you? You must be floating with endless compliments from your clients! I’m sending you this email, because my new nose is 2-years old today, March 14, done when I was 46. I’m using the same glasses I purchased at Sarabia. It’s so light and comfortable.

I’ve been endlessly postponing to write an email to you, because I just want to disappear in my new nose, and not talk about it. The truth is that it’s hard to ignore certain things people say about me in passing. And I’m not vain enough to let other people know that, except to those that counts…you. 🙂 Because it’s your work.

When I was getting new glasses last year, the doctor who was Middle Eastern thought I was Lebanese. The UPS delivery guy who visits my workplace a lot thinks I’m Iranian. And then my new co-workers I’ve been working with since last year thought I was Italian. They had to verify. I wanted to tell them, yes, I was born in Naples, moved to Rome, then settled in Manila eventually. But I didn’t tell them that. Then, I was going to the bank one morning and an older white-guy stopped me because he thought I was someone he knew and mentioned a name that sounded like a Jewish guy’s name. Do you see where I’m going here? You did something genius. Unbelievable.

I’ve never told anyone in my family I had something done. I kept it a secret, because your work looked so natural. Only on July last year did my cousin noticed something. I guess because she sat so close to me. It took more than a year for a family member to notice. I think she’s telling everybody now.

I hope things are fine with you, and your wife. And regards to your helpers, the driver and nurse who took me to the hospital on my last day. They treated me well. Once again, I remember your humility and the way you were with me, sincere, straightforward, and professional.  I really appreciate that.

I remember you mentioned if I can give you a review. I think the review is probably negligible at this point, since the review would boil down to ‘cultural difference’, or that you’re working in a slightly different cultural mind-frame. If you still want it, I can share my opinion.

Hi Dr. Lorenzo,

I hope this finds you well. Sorry I haven’t not emailed in 6 years but I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for the fantastic job that you did. I’m so grateful I found an honest and trustworthy surgeon such as yourself. I look better and my self-esteem is no longer an issue. Words cannot express my gratitude.

I’ve attached two photos in case you were wondering how I look currently. Be well.

God Bless!

Hello Dr. Lorenzo!! I have finally caught up with my small business paperwork and now have the time to say thank you so much to you and your staff. I am very happy with the outcome of the surgery.

Let me just share some things that happened since I got back home:
– i gave my Filipino neighbors pasalubong and they are not commenting on my new look, simply ignoring. Wonder why. Does not bother me.
– My grandson and I took one of my developmentally disabled patient to the doctor the other day. The Caucasian doctor asked me “how old is your son?” I replied “oh he’s my grandson doctor and he’s 3.5 year old”. Dr said “you look young to be a grandpa”. Hehe
– today I went to pickup meds at the pharmacy. Filipina clerk called me “ading” (ilocano word for younger people). I asked her why she just called me ading and she replied “because you younger than me”. She’s 39 Dr Lorenzo!!

Again, thanks so much and belated happy holidays to you all in the office and your families!!! God bless!!!

Dear Dr. Lorenzo,

I hope you can still remember me, Debi. I had a rhinoplasty done in your clinic last 2016. I hope everything’s fine with you and your family as well as the friendly nurses in your clinic.

So far, almost all of my insecurities and worries about my new nose are almost gone. I am also very flattered with the results because the new nose didn’t seem to show a much altered overall facial features. It didn’t seem to make strange impacts on others who knew me before my operation. Even my kids insisted that they do not notice the new nose.

Now, I am quite interested to undergo a chin augmentation as well as a buccal fat removal. I feel uncomfortable with my protruding mouth/ lips and the new nose seems to draw more attention my thick lips.

I can’t travel home in the immediate future for I am still adjusting to a new job. I need to work some more months to get the possibility to take a two week vacation.

Thanks very much ahead for the information. I don’t want to go to any other doctor because I am very satisfied with results of your operation.

Sincerely,

Hi doc rino,

Good day, just a few question i hope you don’t mind. Im feel that the tip of my nose is a bit hard. Is this fine or expected? Will it get soft like before?

And another thing doc, I like to let you know, I like my new nose. It so natural and it fits my face well. Thank thank thank you so much….

I love my nose doc and my wife too, we appreciate so much as early as few months we can see awesome results. And compliments from our colleague are overwhelming. You are right, it really boost our confidence. Thank you so much!

Merry Christmas and a happy new year doc. God bless

Hi Dr Rino

How are you and your family? I am doing really well over here. Thankyou for the work you did on me, it was amazing and everyone here is commenting on how brilliant I look. My face looks relaxed and very natural. Im glad that I had my surgery with you doctor. You are very thorough with your explanation and I felt comfortable with you after the consultation. I am so grateful to you and your staff.

I will be returning March 2018 to do my my liposuction. As you said, its best and it will be safe to have my liposuction done on a different schedule. I do appreciate your advise doc.

I know what you are thinking ………. Lol ………. I just feel that this will achieve my goal.

I am forever grateful to you for all you have done for me…….. thank you so much.

May God bless you and your family, always.

My doctor, Dr Rino is a good and genuine man. When he talk and explain or give information he do this with compassion. I find him to be a very caring man, and during my first visit with him, I felt the warm th of his company. This experience made me very comfortable, and positive, about what he was suggesting for my procedures. Im glad that I made my decision in having my face surgery with him.

The compliments about ‘my looks for my age’ are continuous! Many people will not believe my age when I tell them. Of course I never tell them that I have had surgery. I feel very good, and the procedure has boosted my positivity about being as happy as one can be while ageing!

With regard to all other matters, including costs etc, I did some research before making my initial appointment with Dr Lorenzo. I satisfied myself that the proposed costs and charges were all very competitively priced. So these matters were never an issue for me.

Here is a recent pic of my nose, I am so happy with my results. I recommended my siblings to get a rhinoplasty from your office. I think my mom will get her nose done in the future. Words are not enough to express how grateful to you. I appreciate my new nose, it really boost my self esteem. thank you po doc!

Anyway, I like to update you, I still feel that the tip is numb to touch. Like as you said it can happen but im just so worries kasi diba, as you said, it will take months for the sensation to go back to normal. Baka I can take anything to help me with my recovery.

Im so sorry po talaga doc, Im just worried. But again Im so happy po.

Take care doc

Hello Dr Lorenzo

How are you, hope you doing good all.
It’s been 8 weeks since my nose job done, everything is good so far, its just scar still showing but I know it’s need more time and patient for healing that. The scar is much better now. I attached for you my picture, so you can see my new nose. Thank you I like my nose and my eyes is better looking. My husband said my eye look better after my nose surgery. I ask if my nose tip will be soft. My tip is so hard when I touch it. I know you said that it will improve. I just want to sure and hear from you. But overall, Im happy and my nose looks natural.

Thank you and have a day nice day.

Regards
