I was discussing HT with a friend from NY and she bragged about Dr Orientrect. Any info?

Dr.Orientreich is the orginator of the hair transplant back in the 50's. His ground breaking experimentation proved the fact that hair could be placed in the balding area and thrive. He currently has a clinic with his son and daughter, specializing in dermatology. Though they offer hair transplantation I have not seen really good work produced by them. I would not consider them in the same class as the coalition surgeons.

Once again Cousin_It is obviously done his homework. I can only take his word for it here because I never heard of him. I suppose my research has been more limited to the current technologies of today's surgical advances and practices and not the origin of physicians. But in my experience I don't recall hearing the name and I also advise to stick with the coalition surgeons when considering a transplant, not because there aren't other qualified physicians out there, but only because the coalition surgeons have proven themselves to be a "sure" thing.
