Hello everyone,

Live Chat was another great success consisting of hair restoration forum members and elite physicians offering their experiences, input, and advice.

The Hair Transplant Network is the only community that hosts a regularly scheduled Live Help/Chat session for discussion forum members.

I strongly encourage any guest or member reading this to join the party every other Wednesday night at 9:00pm Eastern Standard Time (GMT-5:00).

There is no better opportunity on the web to receive instant answers to your hair restoration questions by experienced veterans and medical professionals!

It's also a great opportunity for some light hearted fun and humor!

More information about how to use live chat and/or register in our community can be found on this sticky thread.

Live Chat Summary of 3/5/2008

Thank you to all the members of our community (physicians and seeking patients) who participated in our live chat. It was quite lively and full of vivacious discussion.

Your Suggestions/Ideas Wanted

Because it is the members of this community that makes this live help/chat feature work, we are always looking for realistic and practical suggestions to make our chat feature even more enjoyable and beneficial for our attendees.

I encourage you to provide any suggestions that you think might be helpful on this thread.

Be sure to tune in Wednesday 3/19/2008 at 9:00pm EST for our next live chat session!

Best wishes,

Bill (Falceros)

Spex, I do hope you can join us sometime Smile

Chucky, it's a possibility in the future, stay tuned!

PGP, Posting the transcript is quite messy since it's a live chat scenerio. Alternatively, typing up all the questions and all physician responses would be too time consuming. However, if you are intrigued, I'd suggest joining us for live chat next time on 3/19/2008 Wink
