## Surgeons (two-surgeon practice as of September 2026)

- The practice now offers two surgeon paths: **Dr. Carl Truesdale, MD** (founder, double board-certified) and **Dr. Autefeh Sajjadi, MD, MS** (associate surgeon).
- Dr. Sajjadi is a fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon — UCSF fellowship in Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, five-year Otolaryngology–Head & Neck Surgery residency at the University of Minnesota. She is board-eligible with ABFPRS and ABOto-HNS (not yet board-certified — certification by design takes new surgeons a couple of years of practice). She consults in English, Farsi, and Spanish.
- She was personally selected by Dr. Truesdale, operates in the same facility to the same standard of care at a more accessible price point, and Dr. Truesdale stays involved in the care of her surgical patients.
- Consultation fees: Dr. Truesdale $750, Dr. Sajjadi $150 — both credited in full toward surgery. Every patient starts with a free Surgery Discovery Call; patients choose their surgeon and are never assigned.
