Dear Dr. Asaadi,
As we enter this Holiday Season and many people reflect upon the past 12 months and for what they are most thankful, I must acknowledge you, your skill and expertise and mention the thanks, gratitude and appreciation I have for having had you perform my surgeries and how it all changed my life this past year.
I am further grateful to your staff for their time, tremendous patience, respect and enormous understanding from the phone calls and questions prior to my first consult, the actual consultations, pre and post surgery processes, two phone calls the night of/being seen so early the morning after surgery to the recovery follow-up visits which were continuously met with support and understanding (when each time I showed up with a laundry list of questions).
Having never been in need of care from anyone, I am amazed by and remain in awe of the passion doctors and nurses have (both your staff and those I met on surgery day) for their profession, patience and ability to care for their patients as if each were their first.
I thank you for the inner peace and happiness my eye and breast surgeries have brought to my day to day life where the mirror in the morning, the bathroom mirror at work and the reflections inescapable in stores and public places no longer serve to instigate an inner disheartening, personal battle and where strangers making ignorant comments about my tired appearance no longer have cause to elicit rude remarks. You were also the only surgeon who did not turn me away, fully confident that eye surgery (in my case) could be successful.
As for those more private transformations and the particular issues I faced, they have only brought confidence which is further reflected on a face that no longer feels depressed or seemingly appears fatigued.
Your work changes and affects the physical, although you also change and affect life in the process. I am not sure how often your patients share with you how plastic surgery changed and improved their daily life, but in my case it has been remarkable; perhaps immeasurable.
So, I send you (and your staff) my most sincere gratitude and I wish you and your family blessings and happiness for the Holiday Season and throughout the New Year.
Fondly,
P.C. (Age 43)
