Well I just posted in another thread that I would post my pics as soon as I got back to Atlanta... but I have a question: why is it that I make 2 threads about SHR and in both threads people insuniate that I work for them! Please don't tell me that this is one of the forums that unless we discuss the Doctors or clinics that help pay for this site then automatically people assume competition. I was trying to help out.... either way everyone looking at these forums should really validate these Doctors or clinics for themsselves.

First of all my recommendations to La La Land was to do more research and not listen to people that merely make comments about Doctors or clinics that they don't know anything about (btw LaLa congrats on your desicion...Dr. Shapiro sounds like a great Doctor). I also made a comment about Doctor Griffin... I don't think that just because someone pays for advertising their name on this site it makes them a great Doctor. I'm a little passionate about this particular subject because it really effected me in a negative manner. I will dig up my pics and post them so that you all can see his masterpiece. Also, I have no affilations with Samson other than the fact that they treated me like family and did a great job on my HT. One more thing for The B Spot: please if you are going to make a comment just to make a point make sure you've done your research. I made sure that Samson wasn't another Bosley.... they have 2 surgery centers and 3 Doctors. The office that I had my procedure at wouldn't even do 2 procedures in 1 day!!! They simply refused saying that they do 1 procedure per day to ensure all staff members concentrate on 1 patient (and they did exactly that when I was there). Anyhoo, give me a couple of days until I get back to Atlanta and dig up my pictures, I'm happy to share them with everyone.

wow, I find it amazing that people actually reply to posts and try to "help" someone make a decision without actually knowing anything about someone. I've read about 20 posts about Samson Hair restoration so far and every single one I've read has had Dewayne and others talk bad about them without really giving a reason other than "others" are better or they have not heard of them before. I did research for almost 1 year before deciding who to go to. My first HT was almost a disater. Sure my hair grew but it looked so unnatural. I interviewd about 30 patients from different clinics and found that all 5 patients that have had procedures at Samson were not only more educated about HT then anyone else, but had such natural looking results that if they didn't tell me they had HT, I would have never known. So La La land, before you actually listen to anyone's advice on a forum, especially people that have not had experience with the group you are have questions about, ask the folks at Samson if they would give you some names of some previous patients and call them on your terms. Don't base something as important as your hair on random feedback from someone that has no experience with them.

I know this post is a little outdated but I wanted to just add my experience in here. I've had one procedure with Dr. Griffin and wasn't really pleased with the results. I stumbled across this forum about a week ago because I wanted to share my experience at Samson Hair Restoration in Atlanta. I had my second procedure there about 5 months ago and my results are just starting to show up. It's amazing what a difference between 2 procedures. First of all I had absolutely no pain during my procedure at Samson. Before I did my procedure there I spoke to 5 of their previous patients and got their feedback. I'm really impressed with the results that these patients have had. These guys are artists more than surgens and that's what I was looking for. Basically they fixed the un-natural look that Dr. Griffin gave me and now I don't have to worry about if someone gets too close to me if they are going to be able to tell I've had HT or not. I would not write off Samson Hair Restoration just because you've never heard their name before or because they have nice pictures... do you homework... I think you will be impressed. I'm glad I did.
