I received a response from the clinic.

Since I felt a may have been a little too quick rush to judgement after reading their response, I decided to verify, as best I could, the information I was provided.

Keep in mind, I did not dig very deep. Also, as noted below, I did not verify one of the statements due it being a semantic nightmare if I were to counter the claim.

• 
  
• “In Colorado, an MD, a PA (physician's assistant), or an NP (nurse practitioner) can perform hair restoration.” (DID NOT VERIFY)
  
  • The words surgeon and surgery were omitted from the statement.
    
  • Hair restoration includes non-surgical procedures such as wigs and hair pieces.
    
  • Parsing state regulations is a job better left to anyone but me.
    

   

 

• “XXXX is an NP”
  
  • The NP credential is not listed on the the clinic surgeons profile page of the clinic website.
    
  • According to the Colorado Dept. of Regulatory Agencies - Colorado Medical Board, there is 1 person with that name that is a licensed Nurse Practitioner in Colorado. That person has listed their employer, and it is not this clinic.
    

   

This information is not to suggest badminton betting odds for triumphing everywhen and everywhere that the clinic is being deceitful or that anyone working there is not credentialed, licensed, or competent at their job. However, I personally am not satisfied with the alignment of what I was told and how I interpret my own verification.

Thanks for sharing. Overall good and useful points
