Senior Member justgrow Posted August 22, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted August 22, 2008 Can anyone give me some more info on the meeting in Montreal? Pat, Bill, others I do not know when or where but my Dr. said I should attend if possible as all of the top docs or their Reps will be there. Is this true? He suggested I go before my next procedure and to also look at some of your noggins. I may be able to swing one or two days there.

Dr. Timothy Carman Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 IMHO if you could attend it would be an invaluable experience. One note though- and I will double-check to make sure I have this correct- It IS considered a "closed" meeting in that access to the lecture and exhibit halls is restricted to participating (paying) attendees. There is a spouse/guest category, and I am in the dark about IF you could qualify for that classification- but the fee there is a whopping $620.00!!!! That said, one could stil interact in a meaningful manner without that access, should one have the motivation, etc- I would shoot Pat an inquiry re this at any rate..

Senior Member justgrow Posted August 22, 2008 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 22, 2008 wowza! If that is the case maybe I should save that amount of money for some follicular units. That kinda stinks. I am sure that would have been a HUGE benefit for me Dr. Carmen, Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 justgrow, If you don't want to attend the ISHRS conference because the fees are too high, we'd still encourage you to join our 10 year anniversary party with Pat, myself, a few patients, many of our recommended and prospective surgeons and staff for free . For more information, visit Ten Year Anniversary Party of the Hair Transplant Network. If you plan on attending, please send me a private message with your full name so we can add yuo to our guest list. This goes the same for all of our members Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Timothy Carman Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 justgrow- Bill brings up an excellent point- My partner Bill Reed and I will be in attendance at the HTN 10 year anniversary get together, and I believe this can be a great experience for all. Oh, and, BTW, don't think you are missing out TOO much re the actual ISHRS conference; although informative for it's members, it CAN be a bit dry and long/technical- I think you get the idea. I've found my best idea exchanges occurred OUTSIDE of the formal meetings anyway... Hope to see you and any of the other forum members at the HTN party- Timothy Carman, MD ABHRS President, (ABHRS) ABHRS Board of Directors La Jolla Hair Restoration Medical Center Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Dr. Carman, So in other words, the guy in the back sleeping during the formal meetings will be you? I'm sure "long" and "technical" can be tedious after awhile, but I'm looking forward to attending and taking copious notes with my laptop . I'll try not to be drawn into the forum during the meetings I look forward to meeting you and Dr. Reed in Montreal! Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member justgrow Posted August 27, 2008 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 27, 2008 PGP, Hi there! That was what I was hoping for. I did not see which day the anniversary party was though from the link Bill posted. I would not be able to stay the whole time but maybe for one or two days. Any insights? I can only imagine how many of my questions or concerns would be answered during that time. Dr. Carmen, Thanks for your input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
