“I searched until I found a surgeon whose hands, judgment, and heart I would trust with my own family, and Dr. Sajjadi is that surgeon. I personally selected her, and I stay involved in the care of her surgical patients. It’s the same practice, same facility, same standard I’ve built my name on.”
Dr. Truesdale introduces Dr. Autefeh Sajjadi
Trained at the highest level — chosen for a reason
Dr. Sajjadi completed her fellowship in Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery at the University of California, San Francisco, following a five-year residency in Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery at the University of Minnesota, where she received the Melvin E. Sigel Award for excellence in clinical teaching. She is the author of more than nineteen peer-reviewed publications and a surgical textbook chapter, a member of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and board-eligible with the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery.
Dr. Truesdale searched until he found a surgeon whose hands, judgment, and standards matched his own — and personally selected Dr. Sajjadi to join the practice. Working from the same facility, to the same standard of care, she offers her patients the Truesdale experience at a more accessible price point. She has led surgical and community health programs on three continents, and consults in English, Farsi, and Spanish.
