2nd transplant. 10 days post op. Not too much about leonard on this site. I'd like to give some perspective. Good experience so far. If anything their post-op was a little more rigorous. They advised polysporin on the recipient area. It was messy but the crusts slid right off.

I know that there have been a number of blogs/posts about NY area surgeons. I recently had 1200 grafts with Dr True. I wanted to share my particular experiences in the most succinct way possible. Please keep in mind I am currently writing this 10 days post-op.
