Administrators Pat - Community Publisher Posted October 20, 2007 Administrators Share Posted October 20, 2007 At present no physician or clinic in Toronto is recommended on this community. I did visit Toronto a couple of months ago ( see the highlights ) to observer surgery at various clinics. A couple of clinics in Toronto are being considered for recommendation. Dr. Armani is not one of them. Personally, based on information that I have, I have serious reservations about Dr. Armani. In my opinion, Dr. Armani has been and continues to be over hyped online by his online agents. I'd take any plugs for him with a high degree of skepticism.

Bill - Seemiller Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 At the request of this user, I have removed reference to his previous name. I am waiting to hear from him as to what he would like to use for his new display name which is why his alias currently states "Name_Awaiting_Change". Edit: Update - name changed to Dirge at user's request. I agree with Pat. I think you will find that Dr. Armani is hyped on a number of discussion forums. Be extremely cautious in your research and be sure to look at patient posted positive and consistent results over time rather than cheerleaders of particular clinics. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Pat - Community Publisher Posted April 22, 2008 Administrators Share Posted April 22, 2008 I really wish I could provide our members in Toronto with a solid recommendation. But unfortunately, at this time we do not have compelling enough evidence to recommend any of the physicians in Toronto. We are working with a couple of Toronto clinics to gather and review their before and after photos and potentially present them on this forum for consideration. I'll keep you posted on the forum. Best wishes, Pat P.S. Dr. Rahal in Ottawa is an outstanding recommendation and he is also a member of the Coalition.

I'm not saying anything personally about the person you are referring to, but I've seen a lot of the sub-par doctor's with some sort of claim attached to them. My first ht doctor is supposedly the inventor of modern Micro and Mini Grafting. Maybe he is, but how you end up spending your life in north Alabama when you've led so many advances is odd to me. 100?

Administrators Pat - Community Publisher Posted April 22, 2008 Administrators Share Posted April 22, 2008 Tolosan, Dr. Jones was an early adopter of FUE in North America. But "father" is a real stretch. His patients had very mixed experiences with his FUE and his reputation became tainted. Given his mixed track record I do not have the confidence at this time to recommend him. Best wishes, Pat Never Forget - It's what radiates from within, not from your skin, that really matters!

Regular Member Anon123456 Posted April 22, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted April 22, 2008 Thanks Pat. Tolostan ive been researching hard core on Dr. Jones and honestly could not find any members on this board to post pics of their experiences. Also like Pat said ive read about 5 negative posts and 4 positive about him.. Thanks not enouph to convince me. id rather take a 4 hour drive to see Rahal and be confident the results will be excellent. I also have a consultation with Dr. Makenzie at Seager transplant center next week. I would love to hear some feedback on Makenzie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
