iowaporsche Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I am two years past my surgery. Used Dr. Buchwach in Overland Park, Kansas. I just visited him recently to see what he thought. Everyone around me that knows I did it tell me it looks great and I never hear from people "hey, losing you hair". I wear it long. its thin naturally. So i wanted it thickened and it was looking thinned out also from a very stressed time in my life when for 5 months my hair fell out in climps, and thinning naturally also. I checked the big names. I am not quite sure how I came across this doctor but he loves his work. He wants to be affordable to people that can not afford a 13k Bosley treatment (not being critical of bosley, but Dr. Buchwach could easily charge more and work less), He has a process to limit pain, a professional team that has obviously worked together for a long time. Friendly,professional, talented and reasonable: but you get results of what any doctor that charges more would give you if not better. My opinion. The day of my surgery he decided since I had alot of hair I would have better results if it were split into two proceedures. He charged me not a dime more but of course it took a morning of his time and all cost that go along with it. He didnt have to do this.

Senior Member HairDew Posted December 25, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted December 25, 2008 Would you mind sharing your pictures with us? I don't want to sound negative but you come here with your first post promoting a doctor. We've had many shills in the past but I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt.

iowaporsche Posted December 25, 2008 Author Share Posted December 25, 2008 I believe I have been to this site before, I really dont remember but couple years ago searched out such sites. My reason for joining was I looked up Dr. Buchwachs name and it was in a section where a august post asked about him.........not in the forum, from the entry page. So I signed up and wrote him and told him my story with the doctor. I then came to the forum and thought I would do the same to all who read it. Next I found he had been taken off the recommended list. I then wrote pat and told him nicely my opinion of that. Its his site, just my opinion. . I have an arms length relationship with the Doctor, I do not know him outside the office. I appreciate your concern, I wouldnt want to get false information either. But my opinion even in Pats words are not out of the norm even in the last thread I found as to why he was taken off. everyone joins at sometime, and there are three things they can post, success, failure, or who should I go to. Sorry you feel I am false. I have pics but not savy enough to try and get them on here or anywhere else online. If important enough, email me and I will send one. I am married, so no worries there lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 iowaporsche, Thanks for sharing your surgical experience. I am pleased to hear you had a good experience with Dr. Buchwach. Given the evolution of our standards for recommendation, we didn't have enough information and evidence of his work to continue recommending him at the time. If Dr. Buchwach is interested being reconsidered for recommendation, we invite him to present recent examples of his work in the 'Results Posted by Leading Hair Transplant Clinics'. To see how we recommend surgeons, click here. If you need help posting photos, send me an email with them and I'll post them for you. However, if you know how to send photos in an email, you should have no problems posting them on this site. For instructions posting photos, click here. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
