Looking at True and Epstien for my second HT - any thoughts on either doctor??

Admittedly, I don't know that much about True; though I did look into T&D, it was Dorin whom I was scheduled with. If I remember correctly, True has a thread or two floating around this site that is pretty recent and should be on a main page.

 

Epstein I've seen quite a bit of work from on the forums, and his patient satisfaction looks to be high.

 

Having been said, if I were you I would really place a premium on analyzing whatever prognosis they have given you; having done research, get a good idea for *what* kind of result it will be giving you. If it jives with you completely, and you have no major reservations, follow through. If it doesn't -- whether you think it is too few grafts, or too many grafts, or too boldly packed or too diffuse -- keep on truckin'.

Enough is enough! Give me documentation or give me death!

MrKneed,

 

I'm 3 1/2 months post-op and all is perfect so far.

The donor scar is perfect.

I can't give you a full answer on growth yet...but its looks great so far.

 

I'm sure the Dr.true guys will give you feedback.

Mrjb and Glock08 are results/posts you can look at for Dr.True...pretty awesome.

 

This is the hard part...both these docs in my opinion are top notch.

 

Meet both of them in person....you'll get a better feeling about them this way.

Both are in New York...Epstein is also in miami.

Mrkneed

 

Forgot to mention...I used Dr.Epstein.

 

Another thought...

Alot of the differences with these docs is their approach.

Some docs are conservative while others are very aggressive.

 

I went with Dr.Epstein because he was down the middle.

I got 2800+ graphs and in my situation I might get away with only one job.

 

My mindset was to get the 2800 and see how I grew...we all grow and heal differently.

If I need a second job....so be it.

At least if I needed a second job I could "play" with the placement of the graphs to get the exact look I want (hairline/density)

 

If I got on huge job...that's it...you can't add or subtract.

 

Just my opinion and what made me comfortable.

 

Good luck,

 

MH

My views are based on my personal experiences, research and objective observations. I am not a doctor.
