As long as I can remember I was a mouth breather (cue negative connotations from Stranger Things) and was always too scared to have my nose looked at because surgery terrified me. I finally mustered the courage and went to see Dr. Gampper because he seemed extremely qualified in complicated nose reconstructions. I am so glad I did! I had multiple deviations in my septum that needed to be repaired; I also needed splints put in my nostrils to widen them so I could finally breathe. I was terrified this would cause my nose to look too wide. Dr. Gampper was incredibly patient through all my checkups, addressing all my questions with sincere care and I cannot speak highly enough of him. I also appreciated that he asked questions about me/my life as well, so it really felt like he cared about me as a person, not just a patient. Thank you Dr. Gampper (and Amy, his scheduler, is super prompt in responding too, so thank you Amy)!

Don't understand all them negative review about Dr. Gampper... I recently had Plastic surgery done by Dr. Gampper. I've seen him 4 times so far include my surgery date, I loved every single visit. I love how he explain thngs in a way that I could completely understand - Meaning he doesn't make it sound too complicated, Like 12 yo probably could understand what he's trying to explain about the procedure.(I hate doctors that makes me google several stuff🙄) And The way he examine my body I didn't feel insecure at all, He's very gentle and He Explain things quick and clear. Most of all, I love How my surgery came out. My Mother in law also Love Dr. Gampper. She's a retired nurse and she's somewhat picky about her doctor lol but She Actually recommended him to me. And I'm very glad that I got my surgery done with Dr. Gampper. Many thanks!!
