What our Patients Are Saying

I had surgery September 2024 with Dr. Basseri for excessively sweating palms. Dr. Basseri and the entire staff were exceptional. They were incredibly warm and made me feel at ease, waving away any anxiousness I felt awaiting the surgery. They made the whole process simple and he walked me through every step before, explaining exactly what he was going to do. After the surgery, the entire staff was very patient and made sure everything was perfect! Recovery was quick and easy and I am forever grateful for this surgery! I wish I had done it sooner!

Dr. Basseri and the staff at the Center for Hyperhidrosis exceeded my expectations! The entire experience made me feel super comfortable and at ease. Dr. Basseri spoke with me on the phone several times prior to surgery to answer questions and address concerns. I, like many, had concerns about side effects, and he put me in contact with previous patients to hear about their experiences. Following surgery, Dr. Basseri reached out directly for several weeks to see how I was recovering. These surgeries changed my life for the better in so many ways, and I just wish I would have known about them earlier. I have no regrets and would encourage anyone who is considering this to explore if it’s a good fit for you!

I’ve always suffered with sweaty hands my whole life, Dr Basseri is very understanding knowledgeable and caring, Felt comfortable the whole time with him and the nurses. Not having sweaty hands anymore is life changing. Would 100% recommend to anyone that has the opportunity for the surgery. My brothers are next for the surgery!

Long story short DO IT!!! My only regret is not doing it sooner. For years I researched potential remedies and solutions, but literally nothing worked; not meditation (i tried numerous ones), not any topical creams, not botox, not the iontophoresis machine (which in fact made my hyperhidrosis worse), nothing! I had lost all hope. When I reached the point where my hyperhidrosis was literally preventing me from my starting my career (my dream job), this is when I finally expressed to my mom and sister what I had been going through. Together we found Dr. Basseri and The Center For Hyperhidrosis! Out of all the doctors and medical professionals I have come across in my lifetime, I truly believe and felt like Dr. Basseri not only heard me, but also really cared about me and wanting to help me.
It has now been over a year since my ETS surgery and I still am in disbelief that this is my new reality:) Later I was fortunate enough to also be able to get my feet done (now 7 months post ELS) and I could not be happier! Everything just seems easier! And I love not wearing socks:)))
I am incredibly thankful and appreciative to Dr. Basseri and The Center For Hyperhidrosis for all that they have done for me!

The team and the surgery was everything we could have hoped for to help our son. We suffered way too long for such an easy, effective and comfortable experience. Would highly recommend. We are going for a second surgery for the feet soon after the hands was so successful. My athletic son is excelling in baseball and his confidence is high. He even had his first date!

My son suffered with sweaty hands. In school, he couldn’t hold a pencil and his paper would get all wet. For friends/parents of teenagers going through this, I can tell you it’s life altering. The depression and hopelessness that it will never get better is real. You are worried every waking moment about hiding and/or drying your hands. My son was ready when he turned 18. After the surgery his hands were warm and DRY! No compensatory sweating, no scarring, just a very happy and RELIEVED son. He now saw a future free of this anxiety. And he is the thriving.

Dr. Besseri is a wonderful surgeon and kind person. He followed up with me and my son the day of and every day after. He made himself available if we had questions or concerns. The surgery center is top notch, clean with professional and caring staff. I cannot tell you strongly enough how LIFE CHANGING this surgery was for my son. Don’t let your loved one suffer when there is a solution.

I’m so grateful this place exists. I’m in my late 40’s and suffered from Hyperhidrosis of the hands and feet my entire life. This has caused several issues over the years ranging from social anxiety to physical limitations. After copious amounts of research, I decided to set up a consolation with Dr. Basseri and decided to take the leap. So glad I did! Dr. Basseri preformed the thoracic sympathectomy (for the palms) 6 months later. I was so happy with the outcome, I scheduled the lumbar sympathectomy the following year. It was a game changer for me. Wish I discovered them years ago. Grateful for Dr. Basseri and Dr. Reisfeld!

My husband went to Dr. Reisfeld in 2001 to cure his Hyperhidrosis – it was a life-changing surgery. After dealing with the embarrassment of wet palms for his whole life, avoiding shaking hands with business associates and trying not to smear and soak contracts- this was one of the best decisions he ever made.
Unfortunately our daughter inherited the
condition. We took her to Dr. Reisfeld- at age 14 she had the surgery done and now she gets to enter high school without suffering with dripping wet hands.
Thank you Dr. Reisfeld and all of the other doctors and nurses and staff at Center for Hyperhidrosis! We can’t thank you enough!!

OMG–I’m dry!! I cannot believe it! What a life changing experience for me…Whoever is on the fence or considering, look no further. I’ve suffered with hyperhidrosis for about 30 years (right around puberty). I had surgery in my early 20’s, which was successfully, but it only cured my hands and underarms. It didn’t cure my feet 🙁 Hyperhidrosis was not really a known medical condition when I was younger and I seemed like I was the only one suffering with this condition. Luckily, I did find a doctor who was able to help, but it was only for the hand and underarms. Several years after my surgery, I started having compensatory sweating in other areas of my body I never had issue before. This was a gradual effect and then it became out of control towards my 40’s. Once again, I started to do a ton of research, I tried several homeopathic alternatives (medication wasn’t an option for me), but nothing seemed to help. Finally, I came across the Center For Hyperhidrosis (CFH). I discovered CFH is the ONLY center who cures the feet (plantar) area. It seemed too good to be true. And not only that, CFH does an entirely different procedure than the one I did 21 years prior. New technology + knowledge = no crazy compensatory sweating!! Yaaah!! I kicked the tire for a couple of years, since I still was worried that I “might” still get compensatory sweating, but I finally had the procedure in Dec of 2021. I’m so very glad I did it and should have trusted my gut much earlier. One great thing, I was able to discuss everything over the phone directly with Dr. Bassier before I made any decisions. What also encouraged me tremendously, was that I was able to communicate with several of Dr. Bassarie’s past patients. They were all so kind to share their stories, which I could 100% relate too. I was super excited every time I spoke to someone, and at that point I was convinced!

Not only was the surgery a HUGE success, I have to give 5 Stars to Dr. Basseri and his staff. They are first class and so professional. His office was immaculate, his entire team from intake to post op were amazing. I felt like I knew everyone the moment I arrived for my pre-op. I’m still in touch with the center and Dr. Basseri if I have any questions. They’re so quick to respond and so helpful. I promise you, you’re in great hands if you do decide to have the procedure–it’s a life changer for sure!

I’d do this over and over again! I’m dry and finally got a foot message today. It was incredible! Ha! Never would have imagined that. I still cannot believe the results. I’m amazed and thankful everyday. Thank you again Dr. Basseri 🙂

Dr. Basseri was excellent. It was incredible the way he worked with the GI specialists. After I was diagnosed by the GI, I immediately met with Dr. Basseri to discuss surgery. He went way above and beyond by scheduling my surgery the day after I was diagnosed. Only the most flexible and skilled surgeons have the confidence to do this. He was kind, compassionate, articulate, and to top it off a dynamite surgeon. I feel amazing and it is only two weeks post-op. There are not enough words to describe the gratitude I feel towards the doctors, nurses, and staff at GABH and the KB Surgical Center. If all healthcare offices functioned this way, the United States would rank #1 in healthcare worldwide! Thank you to GABH and KB for making such a difference in the quality of my life!

An amazing surgeon that took the time to listen to what I needed, and explained how weight loss surgery works! I was excited about moving forward and going through with the surgery. My life is so much better and I would highly recommend you go to the Khalili Center to have weight loss surgery. They are the best!

Jul 8, 2013

Wouldn’t go anywhere else than the Khalili Center. Dr. Basseri is an amazing surgeon and very charismatic. He made me feel comfortable about the decision to have weight loss surgery. Making that decision can be difficult, but the staff at his office were very warm and helpful in the process.

“We are coming up on two years since my daughter had the ETS surgery for her hands. Best decision ever! I don’t think that she would’ve been able to make it through nursing school the last two years having to put on gloves with dripping, wet hands.”
