I had nasal surgery with this doctor. The sedation he gave me did not work. I was in agony.

Dr. Alavi did an amazing job with my sinus issue. I had a septal perforation that another doctor (who shall remain nameless) said I'd just need to live with. I had a septal perforation that was causing a whistling sound when breathing and my sinuses very very clogged. With one procedure, Dr. Alavi plugged the perforation and also reduced my turbinates so I can breathe so much better. He is very warm and personable and I am SO glad I found him - I would be suffering to this day if it weren't for this great, caring physician.

Overall I am very please with the outcome. This is my 3rd sinus surgery in my lifetime, and it finally seems like I have found someone who knows what they are doing. I’m doing allergy drops along with this surgery, so hopefully I can live a healthy long life with better breathing in my future. I would recommend going here to see Dr Alavi if you have a complicated issue. He is skilled and truly knows his craft.

Dr. Alavi was extremely knowledgeable and spoke to me in clear language that I could understand. He is also very human and I felt that he was genuinely concerned with my problem. He also did a great job as my surgeon. His staff was courteous and followed up with me with test results and scheduling. I would recommend Dr. Alavi for any patient needing a competent ENT.

Very caring and understanding office people, nice office and a clinic -like setup.

If you ever need an expert physician/surgeon for ENT problems, Dr. Alavi is the best. My sinus problems were chronic, I thought it never get resolved until I walked into Dr. Alavi's office. He is the best, deeply caring, expert in what he does, and has the kind people in his offices.
