Kasey Li MD DDS FACS

I recently was treated by Dr. Kasey Li at Stanford and had a truly life-changing experience. Prior to visiting Dr. Li, I had undergone an MMA surgery with another Stanford surgeon with a very minimal 3mm advancement, and my AHI remained the same one year after surgery as it was before surgery -- in other words, the surgery did not improve my sleep apnea at all. However, Dr. Li was able to help me with by performing his EASE procedure, which not only helped me sleep better, but also prevented me from needing another revision MMA surgery to advance me the clinically recommended 10+ mm (instead of just 3 mm).

Compared to MMA, EASE was much less invasive (I was back at work in less than a week), and after several months of gradual expansion with Dr. Li, he had gotten me off CPAP completely, allowing me to sleep much better without having to wear an uncomfortable mask forcing air into my nose every night. I was surprised at how much more helpful EASE was for my sleep apnea than my initial MMA, given the latter required a month off work on a full-liquid diet.

Treating sleep apnea is a mine field. I researched the alternatives to EASE heavily, and every other option was significantly more invasive and risky (any maxillary expansion procedure involving a LeFort cut is going to be rough and risk complications). There's also quite a few completely unproven / ineffective treatments that do not help sleep apnea at all that you have to be prudent to avoid.

Dr. Kasey Li is truly the best in the world and will take excellent care of you. I am forever grateful for his help and expertise.

About 9 years ago Dr Kasey Li performed surgery to correct my underbite. After 2 rounds of braces and expanders from childhood to college, my underbite had still been a challenge preventing me from being able to bite through things and causing a good amount of jaw pain regularly.
I do not feel things could have gone any better. The surgery went well, recovery was easy with minimal pain, and the results have been life changing. I no longer snore, I can bite through everything, and I no longer have jaw pain. He was easy to work with, fast to answer questions, and greatly improved my life.

Dr Li did my EASE+Septoplasty+Turbinate reduction. He is the best surgeon you can possibly get in the country. Dr Li is always reachable & follows up frequently post op to check the progress. The office staff(Juanita & Daisy) are always responsive too & help get all the insurance paperwork processed smoothly.

Dr. Li operated on our son's jaw recently. Our whole family flew from Austin, Texas to Palo Alto, CA so that our son could have the surgery by Dr. Li. This was a complex surgery and our family had quite a bit of anxiety about it. What helped was that Dr. Li had come highly recommended from two doctors locally here in Austin. The surgery was a success and our son is sleeping much better at night and is doing real well. Now that the surgery is behind us, in retrospect we realize why Dr. Li is so highly recommended and what made the surgery go so well: Dr. Li is a highly educated professional who is excellent at what he does. He is passionate and caring and his staff are focused and capable. Dr. Li was available 24/7 by phone and came in to the office on the weekend just to see our son. He has gained our family's respect both professionally and as a human being. We will not hesitate to recommend him to family and friends.
