Bill Your condescending reply was neither warranted nor unexpected. I am referring to Dr Barry White. Whilst you are right we should spend much more time researching other medical professionals, since as you noted we never really do know if they are really first rate or not.But, since this topic is on this specific industry, let's keep it directed at that. Is there something else you're confused on?

Bill, While its a great thing that this site does wasn't these some high standards that you write about that had Dr white of NHI listed as a recommended option on this site. The problem i still see is as another forum member BeHappy put it "As for research. When someone gets a toothache does anyone expect them to spend 6 months to a year researching various dentists to see which one can do a root canal or pull a tooth? No, of course not! So why should I be expected to research for that long for a procedure which is supposedly just like going to the dentist (or so it's advertised as)" http://hair-restoration-info.c...04?r=6621037#6621037 And i completely agree with that statement. Now if a physician recommended on this site were to screw up you state held publicly accountable but would that really mean much since as be happy put it "They just keep going about their business while we are left in misery for years"

No John. I'm in the same boat as you. I got a really bad HT and I keep hearing people tell me how it's my fault for not researching or that I shouldn't have gotten a HT. These are supposed to be Drs. The law requires that they tell you the truth of your situation and what can or can't be done. How can anyone put the responsibilty on the patient to know more than the Dr? That doesn't make sense. I would have to go to 6 years of medical school and be practicing in the field of HTs for X amount of years to know what the Dr knows. You can't ever blame the patient for not knowing more than the Dr., yet too many people seem to want to do that. Besides even if the patient feels the Dr may be wrong about a particular aspect is the patient supposed to refuse the Drs advice and insist on doing an operation the way the patient thinks is best? If that happened and it didn't turn out right then the same people would still be blaming the patient for not listening to the Dr. It can't go both ways. The Dr is the one to blame. Unfortunately nothing happens to them. They just keep going about their business while we are left in misery for years. As for research. When someone gets a toothache does anyone expect them to spend 6 months to a year researching various dentists to see which one can do a root canal or pull a tooth? No, of course not! So why should I be expected to research for that long for a procedure which is supposedly just like going to the dentist (or so it's advertised as). Well said be happy. If the patient ends up unhappy the can just right it off as unrealistic expectations and then know doubt they will find other Dr's to support there case. http://hair-restoration-info.c...134107179/m/89910551 Funny stuff.

Cheers Thanks

Any update from you Dr

Did you mean follica's study at harvard? I would think they would at least mention something soon since it has been sometime since the have released any new news on there work

http://www.prweb.com/releases/...udy/prweb1643564.htm http://www.histogeninc.com/products/regenica.htm I wonder why follica has not started trials yet?

Bill, But considering Dr Rassman said himself that he done the original consultation and laid out a plan where he would weight the hair to the front and to the left of the patient in question but for reasons only apparent between the doctor who did the surgery and the patient, the grafts were evenly distributed over much of the head. Now reading though some of the comments Dr Said "Bottom line, however, is that this patient is happy and he is bald no longer" Now i agree what is being said that did the patient tell him he was happy with this result or is this simply an assumption? And he's just satisfied. Maybe an approach similar to other clinics and maybe providing him with extra grafts to fix it would good. Do you agree?

I saw this on the HLH forum and wanted to gauge people's opinions on this result. http://www.hairlosshelp.com/forums/messageview.cfm?catid=5&threadid=81786 Whilst the stock answer would be if the patient is happy than thats all that matters. But still interested to hear what others have to say.

Thanks. Id like to see if the doc can also post a pic from the top if possible.

Wynter, Did you get your hairline lowered?

Spex Do you have any information you can share about the 750 graft FUE case on the front of feller medical? Was he on meds? He was about a norwood 5 correct?

Anyone know if they finished their harvard study http://harvardskinstudies.org/alopecia001.asp
