Guest Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 I just had over 1,000 fu's by Dr Feller and his staff this past Thursday. I wanted to thank the members of this site and the staff at Dr Feller's office for an amazing transformation in my life. I previously had four different sessions with three different doctors over the past 12 years with less than favorable results. My hairline was pluggy and thin and my donor scars were horrific. Dr Feller placed 1066 fu's at my hairline and temples at nearly 60 grafts psc. My plugs vanished like smoke in the air and my hairline is thick and natural. I can't recommend Dr Feller enough. He's not only very talented and passionate about his field but a great guy to deal with. My previous surgery was with Dr Fienberg in New Jersey and the results were terrible. He sold me on 600 grafts but ended up doing only 190. Later he told me he did 600 exactly. He wasted my donor area for nothing. Seven months after his procedure, I looked no different at all but my donor scar had stretched because of the use of his cotorizer. Thankfully, Dr Feller was able to repair the donor scar somewhat and give me my first "real" transplant. Any one in the NY area would simply be foolish to not go see Dr. Feller for a transplant. Believe me, I've been around the block (4 times). Thank you again Dr. Feller and the posters on this board who turned me on to him. I'll post photos soon.

Senior Member gillenator Posted September 29, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted September 29, 2004 Hi Lange, Well it certainly does not surprise me that you had a great experience with Dr. Feller. He continually is striving to improve HT techniques especially with FUE and it's instrumentation. Keep us in the loop on how your results go! Take care.

Senior Member Smoothy Posted September 29, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted September 29, 2004 Congrats on getting a good repair HT. Keep up posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member paris_caine Posted November 26, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted November 26, 2004 hey guys, does Dr. Feller do FUE exclusively or strip too? his site does mention strip prices, but i got the impression that he does FUE only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Robert_ Posted November 26, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted November 26, 2004 Paris, Dr. Feller does both Strip and FUE types of hair transplants. -Robert ------------------------------ Check out the results of my surgical hair restoration performed by Dr. Jerry Cooley by visiting my Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member paris_caine Posted November 26, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted November 26, 2004 hey guys, my limited research so far reveals that most docs have their assistants fill in the recepient sites. why so? which docs do that and which don't? and why the lesser emphasis on placing the hair, then extracting them? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member paris_caine Posted November 29, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted November 29, 2004 i read on one of these posts that Dr. Feller has had transplant surgery. if so, does anyone know where he got it done? thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Howard Posted November 29, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted November 29, 2004 Dr Seager in Toronto performed the HT for Dr. Feller. I think (but am not sure) that Dr. Feller is a protoge of Dr. Seager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Smoothy Posted November 30, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted November 30, 2004 I believe Dr. Feller had his HT from either Shapiro or Seager. I know Shapiro has down several other HT doctors surgery as well as other specialty doctors hair transplants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 He definately had his done by Seager. He told me all about it in my original consult with him. It looks really good too. He said he wants to do one more, but Seager is retired. I forgot who he said will do number 2 for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member paris_caine Posted April 25, 2005 Senior Member Share Posted April 25, 2005 Lurker, when did you have your consult with Dr. Feller? what was your opinion of him, and did you decide on having or already had a procedure with him? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member heavy kevie Posted April 25, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted April 25, 2005 As my previous post state,I had a situation much like Lange,{3 punch graft HT's in the early 90's that looked terrible.It was done by retired "Dr" Saul Davis in Brockton,Ma. I too traveled to NYC to get my new HT,{1500 FU'S,and old punch work extracted}.I was fortunate to stumble on to this site and discover Dr.True.He did my session in March.Just curious,are Dr.True and Dr. Feller regarded equally?That would put two excellent surgeons in NYC. Thanks.. HK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Wallywonka Posted April 25, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted April 25, 2005 Heavy Kevie, I hear only good about both Feller and True. What I do know Is that I had my 2605 done with True and Dorin on March 30th and I am extremely happy with every phase of the procedure. Very little discomfort at any given time. Maybe the most discomfort was sleeping on the stitches after the forth night. Once they were out on the 10th day..Ive had absolutely no discomfort at all. I'm going thru the watch and wait mode. Many of my transplants are still in and growing after 4 weeks. I've lost maybe another 20% on top of the 15% lost in the third week. But, right now my transplants have gone from stubble to 3/8+" long. I would certainly recommend True and Dorin to anyone for a phenominal procedure!!

Guest Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Lurker, Are you kidding?? Seager's not retiring and doesn't have any plans to retire any time soon. He loves his work! He's been so successful for so long and really doesn't need to work but loves it far too much. I just saw him in follow up a few days ago and am considering having some more work done later this summer. Will keep you guys posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 Paris_Caine I actually had a repair procedure with Feller about 3 months ago. I am just starting to see the sprouts now. I actually got to meet a patient who was getting suture removal from his second procedure with Feller. His results were totally undetectable (and I am a severely hard critic). In my opinion, Feller is a perfectionist. That is the exact quality you need your surgeon to have. Mire1954 I guess I stand corrected about Seager. If your transplants look as good as the ones he did on Feller, consider yourself blessed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
