Patient Reviews
Mar 06, 2018
I first saw dr.bruns in 2016 where then he suggested surgery on my septum I didn’t see him again until feb 2018 and he remembered who I was and looked at the CT scan and strongly suggested surgery. He went thru everything thoroughly and answered all my questions come surgery day he went over again what he was doing and answered all my questions. He is friendly and took the edge off some anxiety about getting surgery done on my nose. I would 100% recommend Dr.Bruns to anyone.
