Speegs,
Dr. Arocha's work is well documented to be very refined and state of the art. He has been posting many examples for over 1??years, often at an early stage of growth. Frankly,I am puzzled by :
'Next I drove to Austin and met with an energetic and kind doctor named Dan McGrath, a hair transplant patient himself.
He was kind and to the point, he too expressed a discomfort with doing megasessions on a norwood 3 case and estimated 1500-1800 grafts at 6k price tag. My lone complaint with him was on his website, his hairline on the web looks dense and full, in person although he is far from bald his hairline can be seen through a couple of inches. Granted obviously didn't operate on himself but his hair on his website is fuller than in person. I think he too has an MHR background.'
It makes you uncomfortable that he is showing a fuller looking transplant on his website of himself, yet you still are leaning towards him a bit. Well, what's makes you think that he has not embellish the results of his patients?
By the way, I have had a hair transplant by Dr. Arocha, and I could not be happier. The procedure went very smooth, with little to no discomfort. Although my hair loss was diffuse, I suffered no shock loss. In fact, I now have a full hair of hair. All the luck to you in your quest of finding your doctor.
