I
am
so
thankful
to
Dr.
Pimental
and
the
IPF
team.
After
an
aggressive
septoplasty
done
in
Singapore
in
2021
that
left
my nose
without
tissue/structure,
I
had
a
functional rhinoplasty
with
IPF
to
rebuild
the
nose.
It
was
a
complex
procedure
but
the
IPF
team
prepared
me
thoroughly
beforehand,
and
cared
for
me
during
and
after
the
surgery.
The
entire
staff
is
lovely:
they
are
professional,
easy
to
communicate
with,
and
friendly.
Dr.
Pimental
was
available for
questions
throughout
the
process,
and
even
called
me
to
check
in
on
the
evening
after
my
surgery.
The
result
is
exactly
what
I
wanted;
nothing
overly
cosmetic
and completely natural.
It's
been
just
over
a
month
since
the
surgery
so
the
nose
is
still
slightly
swollen,
but
already
I'm
thrilled
with
the
result.
I
was
slightly
nervous
to
do
this
surgery
in
Portugal
given
my
Portuguese
isn't
very
good,
but
the
IPF
team
is
all
fluent
in
English
and
I
had
no
issues
at
all
with
the
clinic.
For
anyone
that's
not
Portuguese-speaking,
it's
worth
noting
that
the
nursing
staff
at
the
hospital
where
the
surgery takes
place
is
not
great
in
English,
however
there
was
luckily
one
English-speaking
nurse
on
call
during
my
stay,
which
helped.
It
might
be
worth
flagging
to
the
IPF
team
or
to
the
hospital
staff
that
you're
not
Portuguese-speaking
beforehand,
as
this
was
a
bit
stressful
to
manage
coming
out
of
a
major
surgery
(not
a
criticism of
IPF,
just
a
note
worth
making
on
the
hospital!).
Overall,
I
am
really
pleased
with
my
experience
with
IPF.
The
team
and
result
exceeded
my
expectations
in
every
regard.
Thank
you
again
to
this
wonderful
group
of
people!
