Insecure

"I have seen and I am troubled by many people on the Internet going to Family Practice, Internal Medicine, Dermatologist, ER and other specialty doctors and also Physicians with DO degrees. My Best advice is to go to a US Board Certified Surgeon in whatever field that also has an MD degree. This HT Field is not well regulated as yet, so many Primary Care Physicians and DOs are trying to fulfill their desire to become a surgeon by doing these procedures and making lots of money with no formal training. Please ask the HT physician, after medical school, what specialty did they do their residency in, if it was not Surgery leave and find a Real Surgeon. " I stand by my original statement above. I met with a surgeon, and observed the work presented to me at his office. I am not endorsing anyone. Many other MD Surgeons (the only ones truely qualified to do surgery) impressed me as well, but due to my location and limited resources I went for the $2.00 per graft in Atlanta. Most of you seem affluent and can afford paying alot more. Sorry for not having alot of money and wanting a hair transplant I can afford from a REAL Surgeon. I'm still in training in the medical field and if I was making alot more money, I would go to the best MD Surgeon in Beverly Hills. I'm just suggesting that its best to have surgery by someone that is a Medical Doctor (MD, behind his/her name), a Surgeon (someone who completed a residency in surgery) and also board certified in Surgery. For the few here that I upset, if you feel comfortable letting a primary care doctor (who also treats your runny nose and headache) or a doctor with a DO degree(AKA Chiropractor in the UK and does alternative medicine)or a physician assistant or nurse practioner, put a Scalpel to your head then that is YOUR choice. I personally only want someone with an MD degree, who is also a US board certified Surgeon, to do any Surgery on me. DA

I was very Insecure about my hair loss and have done alot of research about Hair Transplants and the Doctors that do them. Being in the Medical Field, I know the difference between who are trained during medical school and residency/fellowship for such a surgery. I chose Dr.Giannotto because he is a board certified Surgeon with many years experience along with a legit practice and he has never had any malpractice claims against him.
