Review №1

I consulted with Dr. Walline on a recent trip from Canada to meet with some of the best maxillofacial surgeons in North America. Of the three I consulted with, Dr. Walline by far impressed me the most.My impression of Dr. Walline is that his chief motivation is to provide the best possible outcome for his patients, and this is amply evidenced by the overwhelmingly positive experiences of his past patients, several of whom Ive spoken with directly. When the goals of the surgeon and the goals of the patient perfectly align, you can feel confident that youre making the right choice.Unlike the other surgeons I met with, Dr. Walline was confident in his abilities but not at all arrogant. A surgeon who doesnt appreciate his limitations is a potential recipe for disaster, and I am confident that Dr. Walline is not that kind of surgeon.One of my favourite parts of our consultation was our discussion about how his practice has evolved over time. He explained how with increased experience and emerging scientific evidence he has continuously evolved his techniques and approaches. A surgeon who understands that he cant possibly know everything and continually works to learn more and implement more into his practice to improve patient outcomes is the exact kind of surgeon I am looking for. Dr. Walline is that kind of surgeon.Having said that, I do not feel that Dr. Walline is the type of surgeon to push the envelope with frankly ego-based approaches to achieving maximal or radical results that can leave patients with life altering complications and the need for revision surgery down the road. The patient experience, and not bragging rights or an interesting case study are what motivates Dr. Walline. Too many surgeons are focused on their own desires with little regard for their patients true needs.I was also impressed with the degree of technology employed in his practice, including and especially the use of imaging technology to protect the hypoglossal nerve during maxillomandibular advancement.For the type of surgery I am considering, there are a multitude of important factors to consider. Dr. Walline thoroughly touched on al of these aspects. Function, facial aesthetics, potential complications and more were all extensively discussed. I did not feel at all rushed, even though I knew of the significant constraint on his time. I was given a tempered and reasoned opinion, one that I can confidently base these important decisions on going forward. For that I am very grateful, and my consultation alone with Dr. Walline made my international trip during the COVID-19 pandemic worthwhile.

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Walline. I do not believe that my double jaw surgery could have been performed to any greater degree of perfection. It is obvious that Dr. Walline is passionate about what he does; and he is skilled. He studies meticulously, he has a wealth of experience and good hands, and he is the person to go to for jaw surgery. The feeling of biting into food like normal is so satisfying. I can eat much better now. I can close my mouth. I even breathe differently. I can chew food without it falling out of my mouth. I can eat pizza, sandwiches, apples, anything; and it is no longer a struggle to bite down on my food using my bottom teeth and my tongue. I can go out and eat in public and not feel embarrassed. I can smile with confidence. I can talk and flirt with women without letting a Class III malocclusion hold me back from being myself. Before my surgery I never wanted to smile. I never wanted to talk and avoided eating many foods because I couldn’t. I cannot thank Dr. Walline enough for improving my quality of life. Words cannot describe how thankful I am for being blessed to have found a surgeon like Dr. Walline. I could not have asked for a better experience or a better new face. I recommend Dr. Walline to anyone looking for an experienced jaw surgeon. Again, Thank you Dr. Walline. You are THE man!
