Rose or Konior?


Recommended Posts

Based upon talking with a fair amount of surgeons I have felt the most comfortable with Dr. Paul Rose of Tampa and Raymond Konior just outside of Chicago. I really cant decide, I know Dr. Rose charges a little less, but that is not really my concern. What do you guys think?

Bleach,

 

I believe you would be in the best of hands with either hair restoration surgeon.

 

Making a choice between 2 first-rate hair restoration physicians is like choosing between two fine pieces of art for your home. In the end - no matter which one you choose - you'll come out with an excellent result. But you'll have to make a choice based on which one's work that suits you best.

I had 1650 grafts on 11/26/07 with Dr. Rose in Tampa. I believe he did a great job along. He also has a wonderful staff. You can tell he is a perfectionist! I traveled from Northern California to get the HT. Woulld definitely see him.

I had a 3K procerdure done in August of this year with Dr.Konior. I was very pleased with the care I received from him and his staff, not to mention the fabulous job he did on my head. One thing that really sold me on Dr. Konior was the fact he stayed by my side throughout the entire procedure. That is a great feeling knowing the Dr.is there the WHOLE time. At least it was for me...I wish you luck in who ever you choose.

 

Feel free to review pics in my web blog..I'am just now seeing some groth spurts, but you can see immediate post-op pics...

 

One quick note...He gets points for having GREAT looking assistants too icon_smile.gif

 

GOOD LUCK!

I have a session (first one) scheduled with Dr. Konior for HT repair. I can tell you about my specific experience with him this weekend if you are interested. I felt confortable and impressed with his abilities when I conferred with him and his staff. He has a very good reputation.

Given the positive comments and great work I've seen from each..............I'd sit in a chair with either of these two without hesitation. Not sure there's a downside to selecting one versus the other.

It sounds like their talent is equal so I'd base the decision on:

 

1. The one you clicked with more

2. Best Price

3. Closest proximity to where you live.

4. Photos from there gallery (does one doctor's style match what you like better)

I too was considering Dr. Konior, I did not choose him because of personal opinions, none that were bad. The real strong point that I liked was that the doc stays by your side the whole time, that is excellent. Both are excellent docs i would say talk to as many as their pts as you can and see who you personally like (artistically) and go from there, good luck...

You only live once...
