Live Chat Summary of 11/27/2007

[Bill - Seemiller]

Hello everyone,

 

We will now be hosting live help / live chat sessions every OTHER Tuesday evening at 10:00pm EST to see how it goes. I am also considering changing the time and the day to give others a chance to participate. I will keep everyone posted.

 

The Hair Transplant Network is the only community that hosts a regularly scheduled Live Help/Chat session for discussion forum members.

 

Hair loss sufferers and hair restoration physicians alike have been drawn from all over the world to participate.

 

I strongly encourage any guest or member reading this to join the party every other Tuesday night at 10:00pm Eastern Standard Time (GMT-5:00).

 

There is no better opportunity on the web to receive instant answers to your hair restoration questions by experienced veterans and medical professionals!

 

More information about how to use live chat and/or register in our community can be found on this sticky thread.
