i've heard a few bad stories about dr. gaston. you're better off going to one of the more inexpensive san diego doctors. i've heard of three lower priced ones in the area- dr. kahn, dr. ross, and dr stokes (or stokos). my info says they are all around $3 per graft. I've heard nothing but bad things about Dr. stokes (oxford hair). and someone told me that dr. khan is in trouble with the medical board and her husband was practicing without a license. i haven't heard anything bad about dr. ross, but i think he is relatively newer
