Would you choose a male or female plastic surgeon? Serious answers only.?
I fractured my nose and have to get it corrected. I know that for the most part, gender doesn’t matter. I’ve had a consultation with the male doctor, Dr. Scott Mosser and he seems nice, but our virtual consultation went by rather quickly. (I am out of state at the moment, hence the virtual consultation, but I will get an in-office one when I get there). His reviews are also pretty good as well and he’s a renowned plastic surgeon in San Francisco. I got a quote from him and the price is ,133.50 to get my nose corrected. However..I came across the website of a female plastic surgeon, Usha Rajagopal. I haven’t had a consultation with her yet, but she has 12 years of experience in plastic & cosmetic surgery and she looks very nice. She even has more reviews than Dr. Mosser and all of them are 5-star. Nose surgery is also around 0-600 cheaper there, according to average costs. Both are American Board of Plastic Surgery certified and I researched their backgrounds. Both have hospital privileges. Both are in San Francisco (I’m moving there). Can anyone with experience tell me which one, in their opinion, is better? Any advice on how to choose? I prefer if you’ve had experience of your own, instead of just copying & pasting a site to me. Thanks =)
Here are their websites:

I am a female by the way. Thanks.

I had a consultation with Dr. Rajagopal for liposuction a few weeks ago and was very impreseed with her and her staff. She provided plenty of photo’s of other people who have had verious procedures. Other Dr’s would only show a few images they had on their web site. She explained the procedure and answered all questions that I had. I felt very comforable "as comforable as one can get waering only a paper gown" during the consultation. I have check-out a few Dr’s since Dr. Rajagopal, but I have decided to schedule my procedure with her. I feel that she had the best mix of technical skill and bedside manner. If it matters I am Male.

As long as the plastic surgeon is Board Certified, has good reviews by others and you are comfortable with that person, it doesn’t matter what sex they are.
Especially for something like a nose. If it were a tummy tuck or breast implants, you might feel better with a woman, but basically, docs see you as what problem you have and what do you want them to do about it.
I’m an OR nurse and have seen great plastic surgeons of both sexes. It’s more your choice than anything else.

I think I would be ok with either. I think with a female I would be more comfortable and have a nice atmosphere, but with a male I would just feel more comfortable that he knows what he’s doing. So I would be ok with either, as long as their certified and good.
I’m a female by the way.
