I have been seeing Dr Tristoni for Zetomine injections for 2 years. Neither Botox nor Dysport work. I came in for the appointment on [DATE REMOVED] & was told by Dr Tristoni that the woman forgot to order Zetomin & so they had none there. Further, since I and she were the only ones who used it, I would not be able to get any more injections. She said that I could come to Lehi to get the injections & also gave me the name of a woman at the Gateway mall. I understand the part about not providing Zenomine if J am the only one using it but J do not appreciate being told this when J arrive for my appointment. If the woman would have remembered to order the product, would they have continued to do so? Why was I seen for two years & suddenly told that they could not offer it? This info should have provided weeks before my appointment which would have given me sufficient time to find another provider. It cost me $35 to drop my dog at day care which was wasted as I came home from appointment. Very poor management. I do not know who is in charge of supervising products, but someone dropped the ball. I will not be returning. I have found another provider that seems much more interested in my welfare.

Dr. Tristani Firouzi was terrific. She listened to me carefully, expressed both understanding and concern, immediately proposed treatment, and was able to perform the procedure on the spot. I could not have asked for anything more.

I really like Dr Tristani, she is very professional and personable. With each successive treatment I think my rosacea is getting under control. Yea! She also detected some pre-cancer, so I am very appreciative, because I will get that taken care of as well.
