Is this surgeon legit? (v srs)

PLEASE CHECKOUT THE ATTACHMENTS!

Hi bros

Really need your input on whether this surgeon is legit. His name is Dr Vincente Rodrigo and he's a specialist nose surgeon in Budapest.

I've broken my nose and septum after I was attacked when I was younger and it's not healed properly since...

Here is what I could find from Google and about him.

The more responses I can get, the better I can feel about going ahead. Really need my self-confidence back.

Appreciate it
If you've broken your nose you can get a septoplasty from the NHS.

No he is not a nose specialist. You are clearly not the brightest since I told you last time in your previous tread that you need a ent (ear, nose, throat) surgeon, not a plastic surgeon. Especially not one from Budapest! You have not even bothered to find anyone else. septoplasty is major surgery. At the very least I suggest you at least find someone who is actually a specialist in ent to do the operation.

This is his CV and a surgery he had done before

His post graduate qualification is plastics not in ent surgery. He is not a 'nose specialist'. It is major surgery and if you actually want a good outcome you need to research a competent specialist surgeon.

You want a trained Ear, Nose and Throat surgeon for a broken nose and septum that hasn't healed properly - he is a nose specialist in Plastic and cosmetic surgery. Repeat: Plastic and cosmetic surgery. Not repairs to a broken nose and septum which is something very different to a cosmetic issue which is what this guy you are asking about is a specialist in, cosmetic nasal surgery. I've worked in ENT clinics and the doctors there regularly put their patients on the waiting list for a septoplasty which is what you would likely need and that is done generally by the very same doctors because they are specialists in that field.

Again - Plastic and cosmetic surgery does not equal Nose Surgery Specialist.

Thank you, I'll look for an ENT doctor.
