    My beautiful nose!
    Meryl O.

    Dr. Y did a rhino revision for me about 4 years ago. I broke my nose twice when I was growing up and the first Dr did me dirty. Dr. Y listened to all my wishes and explained everything to me so patiently. I met with about 5 drs and easily chose Dr. Y! He told me it would take 2-3 years for absolutely all the swelling to go down. I really think I was at about 99% in a year. I was just looking at my nose today and thought "damn that's a good nose!" so I thought today should be the day I finally write this review. Also, I have had people compliment my nose without knowing all it's been through which is saying a lot! It looks extremely natural- like as if it were never broken! Thank you Dr. Y!

    Just updating my review with my pre and post op photos one year out, as I don't think the office photos are a very good representation. The straight nose is my birth nose. I'm planning on having a revision elsewhere to get somewhat close to my original nose but tbh I'm not that hopeful.

    Dr. Yavrouian and his team are top-notch in plastic surgery and non-surgery in L.A. He and his staff aim to correct any procedures so it is aesthetically pleasing to the eye and for form and function. The office keeps everything in order and is a spotless, clean office.

    Do you provide Kenalog shots for swelling if I had revision out of the country?

    Yes we can but it is case dependent and we would first have to do evaluation.

    Do you check for nicotine in the blood tests?

    No. We don’t generally check for that.

    Would i need to stop smoking before a rhinoplasty?

    Smoking does alter the healing process so yes it would be ideal to stop smoking a few weeks before and after surgery.

    I am in need of sinusplasty and opening up my turbines or one of them. that, plus I have a deviated septum. I see a lot of plastic surgery topics, but not these two medically necessary procedures. Are these also done by Dr. Yavrouian?

    Yes, he commonly performs both endoscopic sinus surgery for patients with chronic sinusitis and functional nasal surgery including septoplasty and inferior turbinate reduction for patients with nasal obstruction.

    How much will it cost for an ear lobe reduction? Thanks in advance

    Unfortunately, otoplasties are not covered by insurance.

    Hello, will my PPO insurance cover septoplasty?

    Yes, it should. Please call us at 818-241-2150 or 818-241-2101 to setup a consultation.

    How much is consultation?

    Hi. A consultation is $150.

    Do you specialize in non-surgical rhinoplasty? If so, how much would it cost?

    Yes. We do. The cost depends on the amount and type of filler used. Please call our office at (818)241-2150 for more information.

    Where does surgery take place?

    DearJean, It depends on the surgery but most of the outpatient procedures take place at the…

    I hope this review stays up because people deserve to know what to expect…read more This is by far the worst medical office I've been to. I had my appointment three weeks ago, and I'm still waiting to receive my nasal spray prescription. After my appointment, the front desk staff asked which pharmacy I wanted my prescription sent to. I told them it should already be on file because I had filled it out on my paperwork. They said they couldn't find it, but after I told them which pharmacy it was, they located it and assured me my prescription would be sent there. A week went by, and I still hadn't received my medication. I called my pharmacy, and they told me they had never received a prescription from the office. I called the office back, and this time a staff member told me, "The medical assistant forgot to enter the prescription, but I'll take care of it." That was last week. Now it's been three weeks since my appointment, and I still don't have my medication. I called today to speak with the office manager and have been on hold for over 22 minutes with no resolution. The lack of communication, follow-through, and organization is unacceptable. Patients shouldn't have to repeatedly call just to receive a prescription that should have been sent after their appointment. I am extremely frustrated with the way this office is run and would not recommend it to anyone.

Since then I've had the same issues with my breathing and throat pain. I could have easily just asked Google ai for better solutions than this supposed specialist. I asked him if it's a possible symptom of long COVID since I got it bad in the summer and my condition has since worsened and he had no response, no explanation, just a quick let me take this guys money and get him out of here as soon as possible scenario. Now I'm home once again with the same aggressive throat pains and I don't know if I trust any of these physicians to properly diagnose me. "Your throat is red". You don't say! I could have come to that realization on my own, give me a solution, tell me how to mitigate it, offer me options on deviated septum care/repair/surgery. Nope, none of that. Deserved 1 star. The quality of physicians has severely been degrading year over year.

I'm posting this same review on each one, since my experience applies to the practice as a whole.* **Bottom line:** I was overbilled $247.01 (roughly 60% over what I actually owed), the office failed to send the billing and procedure information it promised me, I was then charged $56.49 for a follow-up call that never delivered what it was supposed to, and after weeks of requests, the overbilled amount still has not been fully refunded. **Details:** 1. **Paid before being seen, no explanation given.** The morning of my appointment, I was required to pay $241.89 before I could see the PA . This policy was never disclosed to me in advance. I asked several times what the charge was for and was not told. It turned out to be the office visit fee. My insurance says I only owed $120.17 for this. I was billed more than double, a 101% overcharge. 2. **Overbilled for pre-surgery testing.** I was there to be evaluated for balloon sinuplasty, which required a scan and an additional test. Staff contacted my insurance for approval, then asked me to sign off on the cost. Before I did so, I specifically asked three separate times whether this was the exact amount my insurance allowed, because I did not want a surprise bill later. I was told three times, explicitly, that it was. He told me that they had a direct contact at the insurance company that confirmed the exact amount that I owed. I was billed $417.64 for testing that my insurance says I only owed $292.35 for, an overcharge of $125.29, roughly 43%. 3. **Billing & procedure information never arrived.** I was told the office would send me details about the procedure and a breakdown of my exact financial responsibility from my insurance within a day or two of my first visit. They never sent either. 4. **A follow-up call that went nowhere, yet I was billed $56.49 for it anyway.** I had a follow-up call scheduled several weeks later to discuss next steps, and Alexandra told me I could speak with the doctor to meet him during that call. The office called 30 minutes late. An unidentified staff member questioned me and refused to transfer the call because she said the PA didn't know why we were having a call. Alexandra was the one who told me to make the follow-up appointment in the first place. I was then put on hold for 20 minutes. When the PA finally got on, there was nothing to discuss, since I'd never received the required information about the procedure itself nor my financial responsibility. Instead, she simply asked about the two nasal sprays she had prescribed and offered an Allegra prescription. That was the extent of our discussion. The rest of the call was spent discussing the fact that the office never sent me the information that I needed to make an informed decision, how I was told she didn't know what our call was about and the overbilling issue. She then told that actually meeting the doctor would require booking (and paying for) a third appointment. After this, I told three separate staff members that I did not expect to be charged for this call, given that we couldn't accomplish its stated purpose based on them not sending the information. I was charged $56.49 anyway. 5. **Refund requested repeatedly, still not resolved.** The office never contacted me to tell me they had overbilled. I had to contact them. I first requested my $247.01 refund on 8/13. I got no response. When I followed up, billing confirmed I was owed the money but suggested I let the office hold onto it, citing an "upcoming surgery." Of course, I've decided not to pursue that option, given everything above. I was told today (9/4) that a check would be issued, but the $56.49 call charge was deducted from it. The reasons given for the delay kept changing: on 9/3, they said they had to wait for the insurance claim to finalize (which had actually finalized on 7/27), then on 9/4, they claimed they had been waiting for pending payment from my insurance company. This isn't true - my insurance paid nothing, since I owe my full deductible. They also claimed they received payment on 8/20, which doesn't explain why they haven't sent my refund. Their response to me disputing the call charge: "Regarding the charge for the phone call, I referred that concern back to the office for review because that adjustment is not determined by the billing department. The office has reviewed the matter and has declined to adjust that charge." **Takeaway:** In every one of these interactions, I was billed for something I either didn't owe or didn't receive, and no one at this office has taken responsibility or corrected it without a fight. It's very disappointing.

    This review for Dr. Battaglia is long overdue…read more Dr. Battaglia was referred to me after I consulted another doctor (for something else entirely). My first appointment, I think it took me like... 2 to 3 months before I actually got to see Dr. Battaglia (found out why later). I figured it maybe worth it as my problem has been with me most of my life and I kind of refuse to be a mouth breather any further. When my appointment finally came, my first meeting was with his assistant (sorry I forgot your name) but I got to describe my problem and basically it has been a life long problem of mine. After listening for a bit, she proceeded to basically numb my nose so he can be seen with a small little camera. That is already far better than what my other ENT doctor has done by the way. While the little camera was snaking its way up both of my nostrils, I realized quickly that, I don't think it should be... FEELING it snake like that. When that was done, the assistant (not PA, actual assistant) showed me the video and I saw the problem with my own eyes. Can't really breathe normally when your nasal passage is touching (turbinate's) and other areas were so narrow it was not ideal. I was told to wait a little bit before Dr. Battaglia came, and when he did come in. We exchanged greetings, I did my best to explain things again but he took a look himself, even though the video was there. He said some medical terms that went completely over my head but I already know the gist of the problem I been having (since i just saw it). I know my parents, both have an issue similar to this (not sure how bad) but it was clear to me, at least for my case, it is a genetic problem. Was then given two options, keep doing what I been doing with over-the-counter medication (which was doing barely anything) or have surgery to correct my issue. Septoplasty and turbinate reduction. I agreed to the surgery on the spot, despite not knowing the risks or cost involved because I am way over dealing with not being able to breathe through my nose. Had one pre-op appointment (back in late December, 2025) which was brief. Dr. Battaglia said the operation is pretty straight forward (as he has done this plenty of times I'm sure). There is reason why he takes so long to visit because half of the week, he is doing surgery. Currently three and a half months post-surgery (end of January, 2026. Review for that is posted) and so far, I cannot be happier considering I been able to breathe like a normal person for once. First week was definitely a bit of a pain. Just what I been experiencing most of my like times two. It was that annoying but so far, it has been worth it. I am glad I went through with it. My other ENT doctor was no where as descriptive or helpful. Taking constant over the counter medication for obstruction in your nose is not a solution. Having a video to see for certain the problems I been dealing with all my life is a good way to tell me that what my other ENT doctor suggested was never going to work as my issue goes far deeper. Now, the surgery doesn't resolve my allergy problem but that's another story. If you ever need any advice, having actual proof shown to you by the doctor is always the best. So you can make your own decision.

Without properly evaluating my breathing concerns, he accused me of trying to exaggerate an issue so insurance would cover a rhinoplasty. I explained that I had previously had my nose checked in Armenia and that I was already planning to pay for a rhinoplasty there. My reason for visiting him was simply to understand what was currently causing my breathing problems. Instead of listening, he made several negative comments about patients receiving nasal treatment in Armenia and returning unable to breathe. He also told me, "No offense, but you don't look congested at all," which felt dismissive and unprofessional. He was also rude to my mother, who was only trying to ask questions and understand how she could help me. His comments about Armenia and Armenian patients made both of us feel judged and disrespected. I left without receiving a meaningful explanation, proper evaluation, or any helpful guidance regarding my breathing concerns. I would not recommend this doctor. Save your time and seek an ENT who is not racist and who will listen to your symptoms, conduct a thorough examination, and treat you with respect.

The reasons given for the delay kept changing: on 9/3, they said they had to wait for the insurance claim to finalize (which had actually finalized on 7/27), then on 9/4, they claimed they had been waiting for pending payment from my insurance company. This isn't true - my insurance paid nothing, since I owe my full deductible. They also claimed they received payment on 8/20, which doesn't explain why they haven't sent my refund. Their response to me disputing the call charge: "Regarding the charge for the phone call, I referred that concern back to the office for review because that adjustment is not determined by the billing department. The office has reviewed the matter and has declined to adjust that charge." **Takeaway:** In every one of these interactions, I was billed for something I either didn't owe or didn't receive, and no one at this office has taken responsibility or corrected it without a fight. It's very disappointing.
