Senior Member PLEASE GROW PLEASE Posted July 18, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted July 18, 2007 If it HAS to be in Illinois ,then he should be your only choice. Most places pay for your travel .I made the big mistake of staying in Illinois If your able to drive a little at least check out Dr Ron Shapiro in Minnesota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member the B spot Posted July 18, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted July 18, 2007 Doctor Konier does do very nice work, and he is the only doctor in Chicago that is on par with what we would consider a very fine transplant. I second PGP's assertion though, a drive to Minnesota is in order if at all possible. I did it, and I am very happy. Take Care, J Go Cubs! 6721 transplanted grafts 13,906 hairs Performed by Dr. Ron Shapiro Dr. Ron Shapiro and Dr. Paul Shapiro are members of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians.

Administrators Pat - Community Publisher Posted July 19, 2007 Administrators Share Posted July 19, 2007 In my opinion, based on feedback from this community and seeing Dr. Konior and his staff in action ( see highlights from my visit ), I think his work is first rate and there is no need to leave Chicago to get world class results.

Senior Member PLEASE GROW PLEASE Posted July 19, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted July 19, 2007 Theres no doubt about it ,Hes a good surgeon,that does alot of "other" cosmetic procedures Dr Shapiro, H&W ,Alexander and Feller, all said I need 2000 grafts to meet my expectations. When I went to Konior, he saw me 2 minutes,said he could around 1000 grafts unless I wanted a new scar,and that he would only be able to reduce the scar in half. Well Dr Shapiro removed the whole scar and got 1950 grafts. I just feel that if I would have stayed in Illinois, I would be kicking myself in the butt again, even if all 1000 grafts grew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Pat - Community Publisher Posted July 19, 2007 Administrators Share Posted July 19, 2007 My understanding is that Dr. Konior and his staff often do sessions over 2,000 grafts. Perhaps in your case his estimation was too conservative. I'm things worked out with my old doc - Ron Shapiro. Never Forget - It's what radiates from within, not from your skin, that really matters!
