“Dr. Gale and his team are absolutely amazing! I love my new nose and my breathing has improved a ton. I was super anxious and paranoid at the beginning of recovery but they listened to my worries patiently and helped me through it. 100% would recommend to others.”
“I’ve struggled with breathing properly and having a crooked nose for as long as I can remember. I moved to Utah two years ago, and man did i just feel like breathing got even harder (I’m from Philly, so I guess the elevation got to me)! After heading to the ENT and doing an endoscopy, they told me I have a deviated septum, a collapsed left nostril, and some enlarged turbinates. Surgery was the only way to go. My ENT recommended Dr. Gale, and he was in-network for me and had great reviews, so I followed up with him! He’s a nice, short and sweet kind of guy. Honestly, calming and smooth! I’m a healthy 26 year old who doesn’t like needles or scary things in hospitals, so I was really nervous about surgery. At the Alta View Surgical center, the nurses and staff were so so kind and patient with me and they made my first IV/surgical experience as best as it could have been. I’m 6 days post op, and got my cast off today. Ya know I didn’t realize how much I was fixated on my crooked nose until I took a picture of both sides of my face and realized for the first time they looked the same! I’ve been taking a selfie from the same side of my face for years! And that first breath after the stints were removed!!! Incredible!!! I still have a long way to go with swelling and soreness, but boy it has been a great day. Thank you Dr. Gale and thank you to your entire team! (3 pics of my nose before, 3 pics of my nose today after taking the cast off! I can’t post a video, but when I would breathe in, my left nostril would nearly fully close. Technical name of surgery performed: septorhinoplasty and bilateral turbinate reduction)”
“Overall great experience aside from the obvious of having to recover. Entire process was quick and seamless and Dr. Gale did more than just fix my breathing issues. I was one of the few patients that couldn't breathe through the stents and that's what I was most scared of, but it was more uncomfortable than it was miserable. 1 week went by quickly and now I feel back to normal. You can tell he cares about his work. Very greatful”
“I had an excellent experience at this office. Dr. Gale is truly the best—very professional, thorough, and reassuring! Dr. Taylor was also fantastic. Together, they made me feel comfortable, heard, and confident in my treatment. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for quality care!”
“I thought pre op did an amazing job. They were calm and confident and I felt at ease. Dr Gale must have done a good job because he said everything looked fine and I can do pretty much what I want. There was quite a lot of bruising which surprised me but he assured me it would be gone by the time I go in to learn how to use the device. It took awhile but I’m an older patient so he wasn’t taking any chances I guess. I would recommend him to anyone.”
