Hi Paddygone, I would recommend that you NOT get your HT done in Ireland. The docs are either WAY overpriced and/or do not provide the same standard of finished result as those offered from the coalition docs. The Farjo Clinic is the only coalition member in the UK. However, I would urge you to check out a number of surgeons before making your mind up. I know that Dr.s such as Feller, Shapiro & Epstein have been used by Irish patients in the past. Good luck! hs. These views are from my own learned experience. I am NOT a Doctor, but people say that I do look like one from a distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddygone Posted June 14, 2008 Author Share Posted June 14, 2008 Thanks for the advice so far. Would ye consider the Farjo Clinic in the UK a good option? Been looking into this for a while, I know it's important to do so. Paddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Paddy, The Farjo Clinic is indeed a reputable clinic but you should try not to base your decision solely on location. Have a look at the many before & after pics on this forum and also on the HTN site. Do not let a trip across the Atlantic be the reason why you don't chose one surgeon over another. Remember this is one job that must be done right as you'll be looking at it everyday. Also it is nice to meet former patients of surgeons to see first hand their results. gl, hs.

Senior Member balody Posted June 14, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted June 14, 2008 i am a little biased as i had 2 ht,s with them,but any doctor in the coalition should provide a top notch result. have some consults,meet some patients do searches on here and you shouldn,t go far wrong. 2381 fut Dr Bessam Farjo 2201 fut Dr Bessam Farjo 2000+ fut Dr Bessam Farjo My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Bessam Farjo challenge the unchallenged.

Bill - Seemiller Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Paddygone, Welcome to our forum community. Everyone has given you some excellent advice. The key is to research all physicians you are considering. In my opinion, Dr. Bessam and Nilofer Farjo of the UK perform state of the art work on par with many of the leading surgeons in the USA and Canada and are certainly worth considering and consulting. Both physicians are elite members of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians. It is also wise to speak to and consult with a few other leading surgeons and make a decision based on consistent positive results and personal artistic preferences. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member MrJobi Posted June 15, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted June 15, 2008 Right now is an ideal time to have it done in the US. With the weak dollar you can almost get it done for 30-40% less.

Senior Member MrJobi Posted June 15, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted June 15, 2008 Good words from Spex This does not mean someone can't get information from you and talk about hairtransplantation at the office rather assessing how many grafts, etc. on a detailed basis.

Paddygone Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 Any here of A Dr Kiely in Ireland and a Dr Epstien in Miami? Would ye be dubious of any testimonials on Dr Kielys website. There was a sketch on a talk show in Ireland on evolve Ireland, hope it's ok to post the link evovle ireland Would like ye're feedback on what ye think of this. Is sticking hair to someone's head really a way to go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest josh - b Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 paddygone, Dr Epstein is a quality surgeon and would be an excellent choice. Do a search and you'll find many happy patients of his. Dr Kiely on the other hand i've only read bad things about. Please avoid him !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Paddygone, Outside links are perfectly acceptable. The only times I remove them are when it's blatantly obvious that someone is promoting their product Dr. Epstein is first-rate and has a very positive track record and stands behind his patients. That is why he is a member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians. Use the "find" feature of our community to see what patients have been saying about Dr. Epstein and Dr. Kiely. Personally, I haven't heard much about Dr. Kiely recently, but it would be interesting to learn more about him. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member the B spot Posted June 18, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted June 18, 2008 Paddy--do a search on a poster named Irish Homer--- he is from Ireland--- He tried pouring Guinness on his head to stop his balding, but the local police threw him in jail for abusing a national treasure Just Kidding--- seriously though you should PM him and check out his work--he is pretty happy with a doc he used here in the states.

No Splitting hairs Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Has anyone here travelled from Ireland to the USA to get a HT proedure done. I have been strongly considering it. I had a DHI procedure done last year, but was none to happy with them. I also visited Dr Kiely a short time ago....hmmmm he seems a little dodgey to me, but i may be srong about that. Please steer me in the right Direction. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Splitting hairs Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I should say that I have read up on Hassan and Wong, and they seem to have a very good site, but then again, so did DHI . If you could let me know what you would advise then I would appreciate it. Thanking you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Tubs Posted August 28, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted August 28, 2008 Hasson and Wong are top drawer, however the quality of their website is irrelevant (although I do agree, it is good!).

No Splitting hairs Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Thanks Tubs. I think I may go for an online consultation with Hasson and Wong. Has anyone got any idea what sort of discounts they offer for those travelling from abroad, also, would you know if they would be willing to organise accomodation for people travelling to them. Okay, now i'm getting cheeky...What state is Ron Shapiro in? and would you have any idea of his prices??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Tubs Posted August 28, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted August 28, 2008 In my previous email, I originally drafted a paragraph about the importance of research, however you do appear to be looking at the Doctors that have shown great consistent results. Below is a link to all Coalition surgeons, showing location. Shapiro Medical is in Minnesota.
