Dr Landis is such an amazing surgeon and kind person. I came to him in desperate need of help, coming from another surgeon in another state that left me clueless on how to go about my complications. No other surgeon would agree to help me here in MN, but Landis did when he didnt have to, and made me feel so calm about what was going on. His staff is also so amazing at the front desk! Highly recommend.

Dr. Landis should not do rhinoplasties! He clearly has no idea what hes doing. I went to see him because I wanted the large bump on my nose removed. I also wanted to find out if I had a deviated septum that he could fix since Ive always had problems breathing. Dr. Landis told me I definitely DID NOT have a deviated septum. I was surprised but decided to go ahead and have him remove the bump. He knew I was NOT looking for any changes to the tip of my nose but he totally messed up my tip! After my rhinoplasty surgery, my nostrils were very uneven and the tip of my nose sagged on one side. It also became very red (which never went away). I was so incredibly disappointed and embarrassed with the nose I now had. My nose actually looked better before the rhinoplasty! I had my botched nose fixed by a different surgeon/ENT. The surgeon told me that I had a HUGE deviated septum. He also mentioned that I had a punctured hole in my septum, most likely caused by my previous surgery. Please dont waste your money with Dr. Landis, as I did!

Dr. Landis spends a lot of money on advertising; I fell for it, unfortunately. I think that's how he gets clients. I did breast reconstruction surgery after mastectomy about four years ago. At that time, my breast Dr. recommended me to go with Dr. Tuttle in Woodbury MN even before reaching out to Dr. Landis. Instead, I felt for ALL THE PAID ADVERTISING on his website. BAD DECISION!! If I could show you his work after the surgery, you could see the poor quality of work he did. One breast was falling, and the other was up. I don't know how he passed the plastic surgery training if he had any. Seriously, he is ruining people's dreams and lives. Later, after saving money again, I ended up fixing my breast reconstruction with Dr. Sue-Mi Tuttle (Woodbudy Health Partners). Thank God for Dr. Tuttle that was able to fix Dr. Landis' mess.

My worst nightmare.
I had my surgery over 2 years ago now & it’s time I accept the results. I waited to write my review for two reason... 1. Hoping it needed time to heal fully & 2. Because I didn’t want to relieve/remind myself how I feel about it.
It saddens me to say my results were my worst nightmare. I went in because of a referral and I trusted it. My septo-rhinoplasty surgery was done with Dr. Landis at Landis Plastic Surgery. My initial consult was great, He was very kind, soft spoken with wonderful bedside manners (as a nurse, that made me feel very comfortable) and seemed like He knew what he was talking about when it came to anatomy. I was VERY nervous about the surgery just like anyone else. During both my first and second consult I couldn’t stress enough how I wanted my results very subtle and very natural. My main concern was septoplasty. Due to the trauma when the deviated septum occurred, I formed a slight bump on the bridge of my nose. I asked to simply shave off the bump during the surgery and even expressed that I didn’t want too much shaved off because it would form a dip which would be very unnatural to my face. Dr. Landis told me septo-rhinoplasty are often done together and that would be possible. But He really emphasized that I needed my nose broken completely and brought together, as well as have my tip redone. I continued to explain my fears, that it would change the appearance of my face which I was terrified of. I did not want anything more done than what was medically necessary and to shave the bump. Dr. Landis explained that if I don’t completely redo my nose, shaving off the slight bump will make it look “stubby.” He kept emphasizing the need to change everything or else my proportions would be off and it would look bad. This also meant that the suggested rhinoplasty would not be covered by my insurance and would be an additional charge for a full rhinoplasty. I was having a hard time with this but I trusted his professional option. I moved forward with Dr. Landis’s recommendation because I was so scared of results looking unnatural to my face.
Immediately after surgery, although partially covered with bandages, my nose was looking asymmetrical and wide. I continued to reassure myself that this was just swelling, as noses take a long time to heal. When the bruising went down & bandages came off...it was a nightmare. At the follow up appt with Dr. Landis, He was very quiet like he knew He botched it. He stated there was noticeable asymmetry in the nostrils and nothing could be done about that but he was pleased the little bump was gone.
I waited and waited now 2 years for swelling to go down, hoping it would just get better. Unfortunately I am left botched. How does my nose now look worse than it ever did before the surgery??? I NEVER wanted him to touch my tip or break my nose. It now looks wide and the tip looks so un-proportional to the nostrils. I am in tears writing this. I’ve avoided this review because it meant reliving this nightmare. It’s been two years and I don’t recognize myself in the mirror. I loved my tip & my nose, I simply asked to shave the bump. Now, it’s uneven and although he supposedly made it smaller, due to improper proportions, it looks so much larger on my face. Why would someone up-sell a patient on something they didn’t need?? The thought of me never looking like myself breaks my heart.
Just because a doctor has good bedside manners and performs procedures SAFELY DOES NOT MEAN they have an eye for aesthetics. This is all so hard to believe & nothing speaks louder than pictures. Attached is a before of my nose and after. I would do anything to take this all back & not have this surgery with this doctor.
If you have a nose emergency, I’m sure He would do a great job saving your nose but if you want it to look good, this is the wrong doctor!

I don't think they deserve a star at all. My son and I were refer by Children's ER doctor for a hand laceration and just needed his tendon fix. I called first thing in the morning when Landis clinic opened at 9 am , only to be turned down by the front desk lady. I never said I did not have any insurance. I told her I didn't have the number in front of me and I was just about to call the insurance to obtain the ID# after the appt is schedule. She cut me off and turned me down right away. She told me to call Adam Lokeh whom she said would dealt with patient with no insurance. As frustrated as I was already, I just agreed with her. I did called Dr. Lokeh, but I never got through to a person. It only went to a voicemail. This was a really frustrating process as I work in healthcare field as well and I understand the process of billing. I feel that there is no reason why any patient should be turned down because they couldn't prove they have insurance. Does all patient have to have insurance to be seen by Dr. Landis, who is a cosmetic plastic surgery? I am sure there would of been some kind of payment plan afterwards. I would of been fine if the front lady offer for me to call back with insurance information or be marked down as a self-pay, but I was not offered any other options.
