  1. Hey Shampoo, great info. i am also from dallas looking for FUT and met with Lam. I was very impressed with him and credentials and how he is very active in speaking about his research and procedures in the HT medical community. BUT then i read these bad reviews about his ethics and negative results so i really hope to talk to someone that has has FUT from him in the last few years. I have also talked with but not met Arocha who i see great reviews from but he is in Houston and there is a cost/time issue involved. Did you have FUT done or learn anything more about Lam or Arocha? Any help would be appreciated. MichaelB
  2. Hey75201- assuming you are in Dallas as am I. Your story is similar to mine as I had FUT 20 years ago and want to make the front and sides more dense now, also on finesteride. I have met with Dr. Lam in Plano (do you know anything about him?) and talked to Arocha by phone and plan to have facetime meeting next week. I only need 1000-1200 grafts but wondered what you've done to this point and about shockloss. Only issue is inconvenience of traveling to Houston. Sam Lam is in Plano and I was very impressed with him and credentials, however after the only 3 reviews on here on him, and all very negative, am not so sure anymore. Can i call you or you me? would love to compare situations. Thanks so much. Michael 214-675-7476
  3. Thanks for your reply. Did you have the procedure from Arocha? I have only talked to them but not in person. I was really impressed with Dr. Lam and his background in the transplant field but only saw one review on here and it was not good. Hope to find someone that has used Dr. Lam or Dr. Arocha as my first two choices. thanks.

  5. I am considering Dr. Sam Lam, Dallas, Dr. Bernardino Arocha in Houston and Dr. Dan McGrath in Austin. I have met or talked with each and have been impressed until I come across negative reviews about any. Bottom line I would only feel the best talking to someone that had the surgery for similar FUT graft amount (1000-1200) for front side density but don't know anyone. Has anyone here actually had the procedure from them or know firmly about someone that has? Any help would be appreciated. Side note: for what it's worth, I had FUT done 20 years ago by Bosley and was probably going back to them until I met again with them and saw the numerous negative reviews here that reflected my same experience in just the basic communications with them through and past consult. TERRIBLE customer-service, no empathy, just focused on getting you signed up and they bad-mouth other locations of their own company!! For that I thank this forum for opening my eyes and causing me to cancel what would have been a nightmare.
  6. Thanks so much. i was concerned with using Bosley in general because its a chain. But since there is only one surgeon in the Dallas office that does the surgery I thought I should be open minded and just research that surgeon, Dr. Roy Jones. He is well experienced with FUT and I've only see a few reviews, all generally positive but not sure where else to find more about him other than the basics. I did meet with him and he seemed good but the office staff is not empathetic and seems to rush me through discussions and move on. Not genuine. Do you know other ways to research the surgeon other then glowing general reviews on Bosley site? Thanks.
  7. I am considering FUT at Bosley Medical in Dallas by Dr. Roy Jones but have not seen any positive reviews about Bosley in general. The reviews on the Bosley site are very good of course but no specific to Dallas or Dr. Jones. Can anyone help?
