These are the operative day photos for a patient who received 2462 grafts. The grafts were placed all in the front 1/2. Patient budgetary concerns dictated a smaller scope of surgery than the recommended 3400 grafts.

Dr. Ross,

The work looks nice and clean. I hope you'll come back and update us on this patient as he comes back in for follow-ups.

Best wishes,

Bill

Very smart for this doctor to make the statement about the patient not opting for another 1,000 grafts that were recommended. Some readers mistakenly think a doctor isn't equipped to handle a larger session when needed. I've often contended that most of the time it's the patient not wanting a larger session.

However, I do believe there are times when a doc says "I think you need 2,000 grafts", when in fact the patient might could use 3500.

Current regimen:
1.66 mg Proscar M-W-F
Rogaine 5% Foam - every now and then
AndroGel - once daily
Lipitor - 5 mg every other day
Weightlifting - 2x per week
Jogging - 3x per week

Right on Dewayne.

This is why we ask surgeons we're considering for recommendation to share as much variety as possible. That way our members can get a good feel for what the surgeon/clinic can accomplish.
