JoeTillman Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Ok fellas, part 2 is edited and uploaded and "F" me if it wasn't a pain the butt. I hope you guys appreciate this, lol! I'm learning how to edit as I do this so everything about this is completely new to me:) No one is helping me and I'm using software I've never used before. Hair transplant documentary #2 shows the journey from the airport to the hotel. Normally this would be a dull journey not worthy of discussion but in Istanbul there is more to it than what you may expect. I then check in to the hotel and give a preliminary tour of Dr. K's clinic before we head out for dinner. There is a LOT more to come so stay tuned! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TC8umJDKpGo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member LondonHTseeker Posted June 20, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted June 20, 2015 Looks like Dr K has a nice set up. I like how the taxi driver's name sounded like Killage...worrying bit of nominative determinism there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member ontop Posted June 20, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted June 20, 2015 Well done Mr Tillman, Its good for people to see things like this so it gives a much better understanding Of what to expect in Turkey. Kinda of a busy old place right? Good job joe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeTillman Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 Looks like Dr K has a nice set up. I like how the taxi driver's name sounded like Killage...worrying bit of nominative determinism there! Yes, it is quite efficient in the setup, it is very clean and I like the feel. I refer to his clinic as a boutique clinic because you get a lot of personal service that is more "home style" than clinical and since there is only one patient per day there is a personal touch that permeates as genuine. The view isn't bad either. Yes, "killage" was his name but not his attitude, thankfully:) Ontop, Well done Mr Tillman, Its good for people to see things like this so it gives a much better understanding Of what to expect in Turkey. Kinda of a busy old place right? Good job joe. "Busy" is an understatement. Istanbul is a very populous city and the traffic is horrendous but I have come to expect this in many of the cities I travel to. Rome, London, Istanbul, Madrid and many others are all like this, plus or minus a few degrees of severity. Johnboy71, Nice Video - will look forward to the next ones showing a procedure with great interest. I'm glad you're enjoying them! Thanks, guys. I appreciate the comments. They mean a lot when I'm working for hours on all of this footage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member wylie Posted June 26, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted June 26, 2015 Great videos so far, enjoyed watching both of them. I'm pleased that you have done such a thorough job of documentation and it will prove very useful to anyone wishing to travel to Turkey. I'm somewhat surprised no one has done this before. Dr. K has an impressive looking clinic and after watching this video I would be much less hesitant to travel to Turkey in order to have surgery. In fact, I wouldn't be hesitant at all, really. Videos like these bridge the information gap and allow people to see that there is little difference between Turkey and the West, and I dare say they may be more advanced than many Western FUE clinics. On this the jury is still out. I am looking forward to now seeing some documentation of surgeries. Would be great if you had some video of prior to surgery, during surgery, and immediately post-op. Keep the videos coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member voxman Posted June 26, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted June 26, 2015 Nice job, Joe. What editing software are you using? I'm serious. Just look at my face. My Hair Regimen: Lather, Rinse, Repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member LondonHTseeker Posted June 27, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted June 27, 2015 When I had my FUE in Istanbul a few years ago, there was a woman screaming and being sick in the next room. Not unlike the sounds from a torture chamber, really. God knows what was happening there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeTillman Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Thanks for the comments fellas. It's been a really busy time here in Istanbul and I've got some thoughts to share in an upcoming blog post. Dr. Erdogan has put together a real winner of a workshop and his entire team are a great to deal with. I've been working with one of the technicians on a small project that I hope to see implemented soon. The surgeries were great and I feel honored to have been included in the activities. Meeting new doctors and reconnecting with old friends, doctor's I've known for years has been a real pleasure. Here are some pics from the event...

Senior Member delancey Posted June 27, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted June 27, 2015 Hi Joe, Thank you for sharing. I enjoy following your posts. A quick question: how large was your balding area measured in cm2? Thanks Joe. I am not a medical professional and my words should not be taken as medical advice.

It gives a lot of folks, like myself, a perspective on how the services and people are in other parts of the globe. Truly a unique concept, it is like you are bringing us along for for the experience. I think it makes some folks comfortable of travelling globally, whether it be someone going all the way to Asia or whether someone from another country is visiting North America. Please do update and keep us posted. Is there anything else you can share from one of the biggest FUE workshops in the Mediterranean? I saw the list of docs, they had some well known names there.

JoeTillman Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 Delancey, A quick question: how large was your balding area measured in cm2? Big:) I don't know the exact number. Sean, Thanks. I did get some footage of Dr. Shapiro. I interviewed him about the challenges and claims of FUE vs. FUSS and mFUE presented by Dr. Feller and he had some interesting things to say about it. When I get time I'll have it uploaded but I have other videos to edit first. I've also got info on several other points but I have to give it a proper write up and that will be a short while from now. Stay tuned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
