Senior Member troy Posted September 9, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 9, 2006 Good posts, sounds like you have had a rough time. I have read many stories of people who have had a bad expirience with bad clinics, but it seems to be significantly different with a top doctor. thanks for sharing My Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member MrJobi Posted September 11, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 11, 2006 Hi Hats I first found this website al,ost 2 years ago. I was a NW4 or so and needed to do something. SO, I did my research and met some of the docs and decided on Dr. True. 2 procedures later, I am very happy with my results and the doctor. If you look hard enough , you will find negative feedback on every doc on here.Bottom line is you have done your research, and met the doc ( and he is a member of the coalition). You are in good hands good luck JOBI 1417 FUT - Dr. True 1476 FUT - Dr. True 2124 FUT - Dr. True 604 FUE - Dr. True My views are based on my personal experiences, research and objective observations.

Senior Member Glock08 Posted September 11, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 11, 2006 Hi Hats: I felt the same way reading the posts, however, I felt extremely comfortable with my consultation with Dr. True. I have scar issues (from an old sutured hair system) to deal w/ also -mine are noticeable. There are some excellent doctors referred through this site and member's detailed experiences with them are what make this forum so terrific. IMHO I have my first HT w/ Dr. True next week. Getting a little nervous but I'm sure most people go through this. I'll certainly let you all know the experience- the good the bad and the ugly!

Senior Member MrJobi Posted September 11, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 11, 2006 Hi Relax Glock, you will be fine.. The donor area will be sore but that's it..About 7-10 days the Ht's will look like nothing happened. Just think,profesional athletes have surgery all the time.. 6 months from now you will be back to normal and growing hair.. It's nice to have time on your side!! Nik , I don't have any pics and really havent posted any either. I'm private . 1 more HT and I'm through!!!

Regular Member Hats Head Posted September 11, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 11, 2006 Hello I'm on meds so I'll make this short Dr True and his staff are great I was very impressed with there work and Dr true even gave me Pics and info so I can post it ...Oh Glock08 get the sald for lunch good stuff I'll post everything tomorrow .....YaY Vicodin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member MrJobi Posted September 12, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 12, 2006 CONGRATS HAT!!! Yes, the salad is very good ( so are the Vicodin haha).. I'm very happy for you . Now it's just patience, patience, patience.. You will probably go through a host of feelings especially at 4 months when you do not see any results.. Remember it will take about 6 months to start seeing TRUE results.. Do even think about passing judgment until the 6 month or so mark. Keep in mind it will take up to 14 months to see final results.

brucewayne Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 New to the forum but just wanted to say I'm happy to be a part of it. Mrjb's comment, "We're all in this together" was definitely nice to hear. What an excellent community this is to ask questions, share experiences etc. Way to go Pat! Hats Head, glad to hear your experience w/ Dr. True & Co. was a good one. I had a similar experience with them last December when I underwent my first HT. They made me feel so comfortable and exhibited extreme professionalism. 9 months later I am definitely reaping the good results. and the salad IS good I might add.

Regular Member Hats Head Posted September 13, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 13, 2006 Hey thanks Bill I've already looked over your pictures before I went to Dr True ....I went over evrything thing on this site that had Dr Trues name attached to it ..... I can see why your happy.. So thanks again to everybody who contributes to this site It's hard enough to deal with hairloss and the stigma of hiding at least for me it has been... So its good to have a place to find some truth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
