Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Paskhover Fractured Jaw Repair
Dr. Paskhover took excellent care of my son, who fell and fractured his jaw and needed surgery to get his jaw wired shut. Dr. Paskhover informed us of the severity of the situation and the plan of care that was needed with the surgery, he was able to work around damaged teeth and spared my son of extra pain . My son has healed very well. Dr. Paskhover was very informative and engaged at our visits, and also listened to us and answered any questions that we had. I strongly recommend Dr. Paskhover.

Great surgeon
Dr. Paskhover took excellent care of my son, who experienced a nasal fracture and deviated septum during a soccer game. Dr. Paskhover is so pleasant, and an excellent surgeon. My son recovered so well, without issue. Dr. Paskhover answered all of our questions during our visits, and also responded to questions via email (wow). I strongly recommend, our experience was outstanding

A Miracle Worker
I was diagnosed with Basal Cell Carcinoma and went through Mohs Surgery with my dermatologist that left me with a disfiguring wound that effected my ear canal. I was referred to Dr. Paskhover by another surgeon who felt like my case was too complicated for him to perform. Upon meeting Dr. Paskhover, I was relieved and grateful that he took on my case and scheduled the surgery in a timely manner. He went above and beyond to make me feel confident that he was skilled at this involved procedure and was able to give me the best results!! Needless to say, Dr. Paskhover was able to work a miracle...closed the wound, reconstructed my ear and followed up with me in every step of my healing process. He was readily available to answer all my post op questions and has a calming bedside manner. I also was impressed with the Livingston Surgical Center and staff!

He's a savior
Dr. Paskhover has performed multiple procedures on me after having a brain tumor removed in December 2022. The original brain tumor removal left half of my face paralyzed, my eye unable to close on its own, my deviated septum to worsen and start to collapse, along with paralyzing the ability to move the right side of my lips to smile or pronounce words correctly. During the past year Dr. Paskhover has implanted a gold weight in my eyelid so I can blink or close it on my own, facial reanimation surgery which has allowed me to smile again, and recently lifted my eyebrow and reset my collapsing nose due to the dead nerves there. His bedside manner is amazing, he's answered every single question I've had and never made me feel rushed or pressured. This man was able to bring back my confidence and let me smile for real again. I cannot recommend him enough.

Amazing
My daughter Olivia was elbowed in the face at a soccer practice which resulted in a nasal fracture. As a parent it was my job to find the best ENT/plastic surgeon to fix her nose and I am beyond grateful that I was referred to Dr. Paskhover. He was so professional during our consultation and made me feel so comfortable and at ease. I knew my daughter would be in great hands. His front desk staff Mary was beyond amazing and helped me every step of the way in scheduling my daughter’s procedure. I CANNOT thank her enough for everything she did! She went above and beyond to get my daughter scheduled. I wanted to make sure to leave this wonderful review for Dr Paskhover, as well as Mary, because they deserve all the recognition in the world! Thank you again and I would highly recommend Dr. Paskhover!

Best of the Best!
I am so happy I was referred to Dr. Pashkover for my tonsillectomy & septoplasty. This was my first ever surgery and he made me feel super comfortable. I can finally breathe! Dr. Pashkover is very upbeat & definitely a people person. He answers any and all questions you may have before and after procedures, during post-op appointments, and makes everything very easy and straight forward to understand. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an ENT Surgeon as he made this process a 10/10. Thank you so much Dr. Pashkover!

I really can't say much about my visit because my appointment was canceled and rescheduled on the day of my appointment. I waited an entire month to be seen. I've been suffering from severe allergies and was desperate to be seen. Upon arriving to the office I was told by the receptionist that the doctor had already left and my appointment was rescheduled for the end of October. I waited a month for this appointment, left work early and now I have to wait another month? Unacceptable.... and while I'm there I get a call from someone in his office and tells me that the reason they had to cancel my appointment was because Dr Paskhover did not have the proper equipment. She basically said she's only the messenger. Heartless, inconsiderate, unprofessional and lack of empathy. The staff that does the screening, they're the ones who deserve 5 stars. They were more concerned for me and caring.

Thank you for sharing your positive experience.

I normally don't take the time to write reviews, but felt it is my responsibility to let others know how grateful I am to finally find such skilled doctors to take on my difficult case, by replacing an infected cranioplasty from the work of a different surgeon. The amazing team of Dr. Liu and Dr. Paskhover made it possible for me to survive the infection that was on my brain and eroding my scalp. Not only are they highly skilled, they are truly kind, caring, and compassionate. Dr. Paskhover's sense of humor is an added bonus. Thank you Dr. Liu and Dr. Paskhover for working your magic on me.

My brother-in-law has MS and has coped with it for years. The occurrence of trigeminal neuralgia became so severe he no longer wanted to live. He had multiple procedures and saw two prominent neurologists who said there was nothing further that could be done. Dr. Paskhover did a procedure that relieved this inhumane, unrelenting pain allowing him to be able to eat again and enjoy life. Dr. Paskhover is one of the kindest and most compassionate doctors. He actually listens and empathizes with his patient. Dr. Paskhover's skill and professionalism has had a profound effect on my brother-in-law's life.

I suffer from trigeminal neuralgia, also known as "suicide disease". It is painful and debilitating and took more than 2 years of my life. After meds failed, I even tried Botox injections and was referred for brain surgery or radiation. Dr. Paskhover recommended a different procedure that involved attacking the nerve, but going through my mouth. I feel numb, which was the expected result. I feel like I have my life back and am extremely grateful for this wonderful doctor!

Dr. Paskhover has been keeping my face wrinkle free and my lips naturally full for over a year now. I came to see him initially for my chronic migraines, which had become debilitating—I felt defeated and lost hope in most treatments. Dr. Paskhover was patient and reassured me that he could help with injections. After the first treatment, the severity and frequency decreased substantially! I've met a lot of docs and he is by far the best if you want to feel good and look beautiful!!

Dr. Paskhover was an absolute delight. I was a bit on edge before my procedure as it was my first time, but he wanted to make sure I was 100% comfortable and at ease before he began. He talked me through it and the experience was nothing but a positive one. He is friendly, trustworthy and of course professional - all important traits that you would want in a doctor! I would highly recommend him to anyone who is interested in getting any facial plastics procedures done. He's the best!

I unfortunately did not have a good experience with Dr. Paskhover. I feel as though my procedure was not fully explained to me, and I am not completely satisfied with my results. Additionally, on the day of my actual surgery I witnessed him being rude to the OR staff, which made my experience less than comforting. If I had to do it all over again I would pick a plastic surgeon specializing in facial aesthetics.
