The medical boards will show you squat. There is no governing medical body that monitors the hair transplant industry.

What type of research did you do before you settled on this doc? How many patient results did you see? Were the photos taken in a studio or with flash photography? Did they have not only the same hairloss as you but the results you are looking for? Has he discussed potential shockloss with you? Propecia or Proscar?

Only you can determine if he is "OK" through diligent research and speaking with patients. Let us know more i.e. your hairloss pattern, number of grafts recommended etc. If you have any pics to share that would be best.


I am employed by Hasson & Wong, on salary, not commission. My opinions are my own. Beware of deceptive photo tactics used by clinics with both flash and studio lighting. Photo gallery patients are not models.

Dr. Hasson and Dr. Wong are members of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians

Vision,take a long look at the doctors website,go to the how a hair transplant works page.Look at how they are cutting the grafts,no microscope!!!!!If i where you i would really question that procedure to see if they now use a microscope.Please,if you can,,for the same or nearly the same fee you can go to one of the very well known doctors such as Hasoon and Wong,Sharon Keene,Doctor Alexnder,you know who they are.Like i stated in my other post here,you only have so many hairs to donate for a transplant,it's not worth the gamble to use anyone but the best because you only have one chance at a really good transplant,and a transplant lasts a lifetime,,,,Smile

Goodness, I hope you come back and check this thread before you leap! What, exactly, is your reason for the rush? Do yourself the favor of a lifetime and devote some time researching the implications of the surgery before you jump into something this huge. Let me know if I can help you out and answer any questions for you.
