Hi

I met with Dr Dorin 3 or 4 yrs ago, but decided I wasn't ready to go through the hassle then. I'm now ready to take the HT plunge.

I have done some research here on both Feller and Dorin, but many of the posts go back a few years, so I was hoping to get some current views or recommendations on either doctor(or others that you'd recommend in the NYC area).

thanks.

Kiss

Looking online and looking at the docs best work that they are showing is great but you should do more.

In NY you have many great choices.

In no particular order and not mentioning the docs you already looked into:
Dr.True
Dr.Epstein
Dr.Bernstein

I would consult with all these docs in person to get a better feel for the doc.

All these guys are great docs with great reputations but all differ.

Some are a bit conservative while others are more aggressive.
Your personal goals and type of hairloss you have alot of the times help you pick the doc that is right for you.

Pictures are fine and wonderful...but would you buy a car by just looking at pictures ???

Meet them in person...it will help alot.

Good luck,

MH

imo, feller is the top doc in nyc, and one of the top in the world. i found him to have a much more aggressive approach then the others which suited my situation. i also felt very comfortable with him after seeing tons of patient results and not seeing a single bad report on him.

kiss,

Dr. Dorin and Dr. Feller are top notch and certainly worth considering.

I encourage forum members however not to confuse online visibility for superiority. Dr. Feller does tremendous work and does very well showing it online. But Dr. Dorin also does high quality work but there's not as much online evidence.

kiss, I encourage you to consult with both of them, and do your research and view patient photos online or offline to help you make a decision.

Best wishes,

Bill

Bill is correct, however, i never said i based my choice on online visibility. i visited both docs and saw patients in person and found feller to be better suited for my needs. best of luck!

Hi Kiss,

Dr Jeffrey Epstein is also a recommended doctor in the NYC area. He will be there next week performing surgery and seeing consultations. Please let me know if you would like to schedule a time to meet with him. I would also meet with the other docs mentioned and this will help you with making an informed decision. Best of luck...

Aaron,
Clinics and their agents are not permitted to post on threads that ask for comparisons between specific doctors. Ironically, this rule went into effect at the sole behest of your client.

Furthermore, naked spamming and solicitation by you for your client, who was not even considered by the topic starter, is a breach of forum edicate as well.

Dr Feller,

With all due respect please re-read the thread, Kiss asked about other recommended doctors in the area and More Hair mentioned Dr Epstein. My recommendation was to visit you along with the other doctors mentioned including Dr Epstein and then make an informed decision. If after he consults with a few doctors he elects to have a procedure with you I know he will be in good hands.
