When it comes to evaluating the work of hair transplant clinics I live by the old Russian proverb "Trust but Verify".

That's why in addition to patient feedback and evaluating the techniques, photos and reputations of various clinics I believe in visiting clinics to observe their actual surgeries and techniques, interview their staff to determine their level of experience and see actual patients.

Since these site visits involves a great deal of travel, I decided to purchase a small motor home for making the "rounds" in North America. Of course, I did plenty of research on various motor home discussion forums and as luck would have it I ended up buying a 2002 Chinook "Destiny" (see below) from a regular forum member.

I could tell by his long posting history that he took great care of his motor home and loved it. So I flew in to Houston, Texas and bought it.

Since I was in Texas I decided to make my maiden visit a visit to the world renowned Limmer Clinic in San Antonio, Texas (click here for the highlights of this visit).

So now I need some suggestions for a new name for this motor home. How do these names grab anyone?

"The Roving Follicle"
"Transplant One"
"The Transplant"
"Transplant Voyager"

I look forward to seeing a lot of great surgeries, cities and country in this yet to be named roving pod.

Onwards and Upwards, Pat

He looks like he is going fishing!!!!!!!!

Follicular Fishing that is!!!!!!!

Anyway, I think Hair Force One is awesome.

I would say get ready for a fun-filled fantastic follicular fantasy, but people might think your smoking something

Congrats on the new R.V. Pat!

Pushing 40,

"Hair Force One" that's just too perfect. I really cracked up when I read it. I can't imagine a better possible name. "Hair Force One" it is!

I can't wait to call up the next clinic and tell them I'll be coming in on "Hair Force One" to pay them a visit. Of course "Hair Force One" will be packing the latest in wireless technology and photo/video gear.

So when you guys see "Hair Force One" in your area do come a knockin'.

Onward and Upward, Pat

It's amazing Pushing 40 is still sharp as a tack even with staples in his head!
Hey Pat when will Hairforce One be coming out to the great southwest to visit Keene & Alexander?
