Hi, everyone! I live near the Cincinnati, Ohio area and was wondering if anyone has surgeon recommendations. I had high hopes for my recent consultation with Dr. Martin and those were immediately crushed! He was highly unprofessional and made fun of me the whole time. My makeup was the center of the conversation. He also kept comparing me to my mom who tagged along saying her nose was more feminine than mine. I was so embarrassed the entire time. It is a shame the price was so great!

Hi everyone, I have been highly interested in a rhinoplasty to make the tip of my nose smaller. I have spoken to two other places recently and they made me feel comfortable and not bad about myself while still being direct. With that being said, I just went to another consultation today and was really shocked by how I was being spoken to. Especially, with all of the exceptional reviews written about this man.

Almost right off the bat, he makes an attack on my makeup. It was just constant back to back commentary on it. He joked that he couldn't tell if I got in a car wreck or not. When he took pictures of me for future reference, I literally felt so embarrassed. He started to tell me that he didn't know if my makeup was really working for me & that my generation is a mess. I felt like I was in middle school or high school again. I am a lot younger than this man and I feel like some stranger power dynamic was occurring.

His approach to talking about my nose was kind of odd too, I suppose. He said the side, bridge, and nostrils were fine but he kept emphasizing the size of my tip. He kept putting his fingers to it and showing my mother who was sitting in the corner. I really feel disappointed with my experience. The cost is highly affordable compared to what I have previously recieved, but I don't think I can trust someone like that to do my procedure. Should I disregard the behavior and focus on expertise or just walk away from that place?

EDIT : I found him on the RealSelf website responding to someone who had a bad consulation with a doctor of another place. How ironic.

I work at a Walgreen's and a lot of the customers there tell me how helpful I am or compliment me on other things. That being said, I was told about two weeks ago or so that around the time I first started working there, an older lady called in wanting me fired. She told my supervisor I was dressed like a cat and that my makeup looked like a cat's. Mind you, I am always in our dress code. My makeup is a little on the alternative side but I have toned it down a lot since my previous job.

What I find funny is that she admitted I was very helpful to her and her neighbor that tagged along with her. Yet, she still wanted me fired just because she did not like the way that I look. My supervisor stood up for me and said I obviously have never appeared as a cat or "cat like" at work. The lady did not like my supervisor's nonchalant attitude towards her complaint. The lady ended up putting a comment through our system for management to see. She said I was an embarrassment for her neighbor to see & that her neighborhood was going to rally together to go against these kinds of issues.

Situations like these make me wonder what the hell is up with some people? I'm obviously still standing since I am not violating any rule of my job. I just wonder why people care so much about what someone looks like. As long as I'm clean and appear happy to help, that's all that should matter lol.
