Patient Reviews
Sep 29, 2023
I visited Dr. Abidin for sinus-related issues and vertigo. He referred me to physical therapy which helped tremendously with the dizziness. For my sinus issues, however, after a few nasal drops and a CT scan, he suggested sinuplasty to enlarge my sinus cavities which were small, infected, and inflamed. At Dr. Abidin's practice, you can expect to be treated promptly. The assistants are on task and professional. Dr. Abidin is easy to talk to. He listens to you and puts you at ease. He will answer your questions in detail. He is extremely knowledgeable, and confident with a great sense of humor. The surgery itself was tolerable. The recovery time and debridement visits were not my favorite but he showed care and treated me according to my pain tolerance ceiling. It's been 4 weeks since my surgery and I am no longer congested. I can breathe with ease and I no longer have sinus pain and pressure. Thank you for treating me with care and for making a difference in my daily life.
