Patient Testimonials about Balloon Sinuplasty™
"I used to suffer from Chronic Sinusitis and have an infection every 2-3 months. I was tired of taking nasal sprays, doing washes, taking steroids and taking antibiotics. I had Balloon Sinuplasty in February of 2010. Since then I have only had 1 sinus infection. I no longer use a daily nasal spray and am no longer taking antibiotics every 3 months. Whats more, I dont have to pay for prescriptions as often saving money. I couldn't have done it without the procedure and haven't felt this great in a long time. Thanks to the staff and Dr. Silvers' especially."

"Thank you Dr. Silvers! I feel great and haven't no longer wake up feeling so congested. My sleep is better and I have so much more energy. I have more energy now in my 50's than I did when I was in my late 30s and 40s. I am more active and can enjoy my days better."

" My sinus problems started to increase in 2009. I was having 2-3 sinus infections a year. I started having constant post nasal drip, headaches, sinus pressure and congestion. I had Balloon Sinuplasty in July of 2010. I had the procedure under local anesthesia, with very minimal bleeding; my recovery was fast and painless. I walked out of Dr. Silvers’ office half an hour later after my surgery. Best of all, I did not have to take off from work. It was convenient because I was able to work during the day and have my surgery in the evening. Since there was no bone or tissue remove, I had no visible scars. The results have been truly awesome. My life has changed dramatically. The entire process was very short and I would recommend it to anyone. "

"I’ve had chronic sinus infections since college – about 17 years. My sinus infections would come every month or two (at the latest). They were the same every time. When each sinus infection started, sinus pain would lead to nasal congestion, which then led to an upper respiratory infection. From beginning to end these episodes would last about a week and were brutal. Last summer, with my wife pregnant with our first baby, I decided that I’d had enough and I needed to try to have a healthier life. Dr. Silvers performed a balloon sinoplasty on me last July. For the first two or so months afterwards I think I had swelling because I was still experiencing sinus pain and pressure (but no infections). But once the swelling cleared, I’ve noticed a huge improvement. First of all, I haven’t had a sinus infection since. It’s now been 8 months without a sinus infection, which is by far the longest stretch ever for me since I can remember. This has also led to better sleep, which has given me a lot more energy in general. For me, this surgery was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I wish I’d looked into it and had it done sooner."

"My "sinus story" resembles that of most who have suffered, including years of fighting off infections, antibiotics,headaches,face pressure, and lack of sleep. Spending a lot of my time on airplanes, these symptoms became unbearable and with the changes in air pressure, I began to lose hearing in my left ear. I had the traditional sinus surgery and for 1 year the only time I felt the dreadful sinus feeling was in an airplane. Until the sinus infections came back so severely, I broke down in tears at work. A friend told me about Dr. Stacey Silvers and in my first appointment, Dr. Stacey Silvers said to me, "you should NOT have to see an ENT for the rest of your life." Hope was restored. I had the Balloon Sinuplsty and after the initial congestion, Dr. Silvers expected I would have, I was breathing better than I can remember. Symptom free and to be able to be back at work the next morning, vs the 2 weeks I was out with the traditional sinus surgery, the Balloon Sinuplasty had already impressed me. The moment I knew, "I would not have to see an ENT for the rest of my life," was when I was no longer packing my arsenal of pills, earplugs, and nasal sprays to fly. Thank you Dr. Silvers!"
