Personally I think someone is trying to do a hatchet job on Dr. Mohmand. I wrote to him regarding these posts which seem designed to falsly insinuate that Dr. Mohmand's patient died as a result of his hair transplant surgery.
See Dr. Mohmand's response to me regarding this issue below - Dear Pat First of all thank you for your concern and I would like to tell you about this incident. In 2004, I operated on a young male. He was a previous client who had a nose reshape done by myself and was interested to get a hair transplant done as well. He unfortunately developed a brain stroke following morning after one of his main artery to brain got blocked with a thrombus. He then was taken to hospital and died after 5 days of treatment in a hospiatl. During his stay in hospiatl he was diagnosed as suffering from a disease called HOMOCYSTINURIA. If you read about this problem you would know that they are prone to get a brain stroke at a very early stage and his levels wee 10 times more than normal limits. YES this incident was also discussed by myself with Dr Dow Stough and also at the ISHRS meeting in Vancouver. Every body unanimously said that this incident was a very bad coiencidence for me and also for hair transplant surgery though there is no medical link between two of them. Then This incidence was also reported to Pakistan Medical & Dental Council and was heard by a pannel of 18 Doctors as a hearing and they cleared me from any negligence or meical problem. As I am a leading hair transplant surgeon in Pakistan and especially since I have left the Practice of ILHT of DR Sajjad Khan, they are now trying to malinate my reputation and have done things like this in Islamabad as well. Anyway, YES a patient died after hair transplant but not because of hair transplant surgery and I had the courage to discuss this on ISHRS Hair Transplant Forum publications as well. I hope this will be good enough for you to know whats happening here. ACtually, When Sajjad in Pakistan advertised that he is the author of 3 hair transplant surgery books and the word first American diplomat of Hair transplant surgry and the pioneer of single follicular hair trasplant surgeon. I left him as a protest and then started my own practice as I never wanted to be a part of this type of unlawful practice. As I was his main surgeon he is now trying to take a sort of revenge, I guess. They actually asked me this type of question on air when I have appeared on National telivision on so many occasion.

Not to perpetuate any "attack" against the Dr. Mohmand, but the unfortunate person was a patient of his TWICE and this medical condition was never discussed?
Did the panel find any link between the thrombus and the length of time in the operating chair/table? Again, highly irregular, terribly unfortunate, and difficult to understand. Recently, a patient died immediately following surgery in California as well. http://news.hairlosshelp.com/hair-transplant-news/calif...-death-of-a-patient/ (I hope you don't mind the link Pat) While I am not pointing fingers at the good Doctor, I would hope that you are demanding more involvement with this community. He says he does 35 HT's a month and has for some time.... I would like to see some results. Thanks for taking the time to respond to this thread Pat. J

Wow...it does to me, sound like a terrible and unfortunate coincidence.
However...we have to ask...DID the patient know of his condition beforehand? If he did, hopefully he would have disclosed that on the questionnaire before surgery? Did he? If he did...shouldn't the doctor have researched this before performing the surgery? It may still be coincidence...I don't know how, if at all, these two things could be tied together (not being a doctor). But I certainly wouldn't want to operate on a person's scalp knowing they have a brain condition. But if the patient didn't disclose this information or didn't know...then there is no question that it's completely coincidence. I would, however, like to see him (along with the other coalition doctors) be more active in our community. In reality, however, I would REALLY like, more PATIENTS from these clinics become active members of our community. Though clinic postings are helpful...it's the PATIENT postings of their progress that are the REAL deal. Bill

I've never heard of him doing FUE; which isn't to say he doesn't. However, I would be extrordinarily cautious in *who* you procede to do an FUE procedure with, as it is a totally different animal than FUT, and there is a tremendous amount of hype and deceit concerning it, and there are very few doctors trained and experienced in performing it at a high level.
What is your level of loss, and how many grafts are you looking at getting?

Hello All - I am Tony from New York City (tony030381@aol.com). I am 27 year old and I have started to notice that my hair has stopped growing. According to the Norwood charts I am categorized as (VI) (Adding pictures attachment)... which is not the best for hair restoration. I have been researching on many different treatments and came across Dr. Humayun Mohmand who's a specialist in hair restoration. Being that I am flying from the U.S.A to have this surgery performed he was able to review my pictures as well was extremely responsive to my emails and questions I had. I was put in touch with one of his staff who offered to also find temporary housing for me. I have my surgery set on May 8, 2008 in Islamabad, Pakistan. So far my experience with dealing with Dr.Humayun and his staff is excellent!

Good luck keep us posted. May I ask why you chose to go all the way to Pakistan when you have one of the top 5 doctors in my opinion close to you (Dr. Feller)? Looking at your pictures you look like at least a NW6, can you tell me what you game plan is?? How many grafts are you hoping to recieve??
Thank you and good luck
