Hi Melvin, thanks. However don't you think it is strange that it's being more than 24 hours I posted my last post and no one from Dr.Bhatti or his representative tried to refuse the allegation? If this was a false allegation towards a Doctor who's reputation at massive risk he should be brave enough to deny, don't everyone think so? I don't have anything to gain from making a false allegation especially after posting more than 1 year.

I think if you are able to provide proof of what you claim (which is a huge deal if true) then it would put everything to bed. In my opinion, if its true, there should be big consequences.

Yes I have the proof now which my former employers just sent me. Reading back that email, make me think how this kind of physician are allowed to be in the industry and how low can they get.

So as what I wrote here 3 days back after 1 year plus being active here, , I have sent the proof to @Melvin-Moderator on the email which @DarlingBudsClinic representative sent to my former employers last year on June 18th. The email was sent by @Shera. I leave it to the admin and members here to judge the behaviour of this doctor and his representatives. 

If anyone in future would want to consider a procedure from this doctor, do think the consequences and what might happen to you. Yes, it is very normal for a clinic rep to defend their clinic since they earn a certain amount of commission from referral but there is a limit for everything and one can only wonder if the patient was in India and he shared his bad results and experiences on this type of platform, up to what extend can these guys do to shut the patient off? 

Also, I might share this whole journey of mine in another platform if I think I should now.

Shera, 

I'm not sure if I should be replying this to you since you have already make it clear that you not be responding to any other post again after your last post. I'm from Malaysia. I had my first surgery in June 2016 with 2000 grafts of FUE procedure, done locally. 

Before meeting Dr Bhatti, I did not know about this blog or any other blogs on hair transplant. After my first unsuccessful procedure, i tried looking up to online, mainly on youtube with sample of surgeons work and that's when i came across Dr Bhatti. I would say I got it wrong with my choice with Dr Bhatti with his ''misleading videos'' and over promises through emails. 

When I met Dr Bhatti in Chandigargh, he is the one who gave this blog details and few other blogs where I should post up my failed first procedure story online. He claim the doctor did not do the right job and he is not qualified therefore he should be responsible to give me full refund.  

After my surgery, I contacted the first doctor and we had few discussion and he agreed to fully compensate me. We went into chronological check on how the procedure was. He took more than 12 hours for my procedure for only 2000 grafts. My first graft extraction was done at 9.30 and completed at 12.30. However only at 4.30 - 5pm the planting started and lasted for untill 11.45pm. Most likely the graft did not survive and I did tell this to Bhatti before my procedure. He is also known for having few procedure at same time which I learned latter.

After agreeing to compensate he wanted me to sign a non disclosure agreement that  I would not disclose anything more and he would pay me fully. 

Now I would reply all our points below. I think you are trying so hard to defend your doctor, which I understand as you being his patient advisory and it would hit him and yourself from a potential patient from UK or North America read this.

Badresults, firstly can I ask where you had your first surgery?

As mentioned above it was done locally in Malaysia.

What made you choose that particular surgeon?

I had one of my friend who was also experimenting hair loss had a procedure done with him. He had a decent results knowing his hair loss was more severe than mine.Only different on his part that his surgery was completed in 5.5 hours and he was the only patient that day, which all this I found out later. 

What were the reasons given for the failure of your first surgery?

The doctor initially said he don't know. After my surgery with Bhatti I went back and explain to him that I had a repair and there could be on how the surgery went and how long it took cause the surgery to fail. He admitted that and refunded me fully 

Why did you not feel the need to name and shame that particular doctor and clinic?

I have explain this earlier as per above. 

Also to get a clearer overall picture of your case, can you post clear pictures before and immediately after this first surgery clearly showing the implanted area and your donor area post surgery. This will help determine whether a pattern of bad growth exists with both surgeries and the donor that Dr Bhatti had at his disposal.

Unfortunately i do not have the first procedure picture with me, because the doctor refused to share with me. However my condition before the surgery with him was the same as how my surgery before Bhatti. The picture is on the first post. His coverage is the same as what Bhatti did, the only difference is that Bhatti lowered my hairline slightly, which now looks horrible due to the lack of growth.

Also, I'm not trying to be clever here; it clearly is another procedure where your implanted grafts have not grown out, that is not questionable.

- I'm not the doctor here. Dr Bhatti as a doctor and as how he claim he is the specialist he should know that I had the first failed surgery, and he should have done a proper due diligence before accepting my case. I was very transparent with him that what I went through. All he's feedback was he can deliver the full density result with 2200 graft (which later he claimed he extracted more) 

It is a good move to see a dermatologist and I'm a little surprised that you did not see one after your first failed surgery where any issues with your scalp could have been identified and addressed.

- Amazing you are asking me this.  So who is the doctor and patient here? Isn't this the doctor's responsibility that he should perform a proper check before accepting my case? Or he could have asked me to go to a dermatologist before going for a 2nd surgery? Why did he not think on to this? And why he's patient advisory is asking me to see a dermatologist and not himself? Or was he more interested to close the sale?

Have you even considered that your first surgery could be to blame for your subsequent failure?

- I'm not sure because i'm not the doctor here. Which doctor would ask their patient what could be the reason of their own failed job? Isn't that what doctor's suppose to do before taking the case and operating them? Why didn't the doctor do a proper case study before accepting a repair job? Or you are saying that patient should check on themselves before going for a repair? If that is so doctors should shut down the consultation part, right?

Your implantation area certainly would have been in a worse condition than in your first surgery, this is why it’s important to see clear pictures of that surgery immediately post op so this theory can be discarded.

My implantation area is the same before and after surgery from first surgery as how my picture above . Basically what was planted did not grow. 

You should have allied your expectations with the evidence clearly in front of you. One failure doesn't guarantee success in a second surgery regardless of the doctor, no surgery is guaranteed to work as you clearly now know. 

- first of all, I was not expecting a miracle from Bhatti. I told him himself that I would be happy with 50% of gowth, i'm not hoping to have a full dense hair because i understand results can be different. If one failure doesn't guarantee a success, then why din't Bhatti tell me this earlier? Why did he tell that he can fix it? Did you even speak to him before you raise this point?

Also, it could be that you are just not a good candidate due to your physiological make up. Maybe your scalp just won't take new grafts or is damaged from the first surgery. These are all ifs and buts but the reality is there is no straight forward answer to a transplant failure. Name a surgeon who has a 100% success rate on a virgin scalp never mind one that is in for repair.

- I would expect the doctor to tell me if i'm the right or wrong candidate, he should have known this as he was made aware of my history but why did he commit that he could repair me? Why did he not advise me that the result could be otherwise? I agree that no surgeons would ever have 100% success rate, but if the surgeon has some responsibility he would admit his mistake and take the responsibility. Before posting this post, i have been asking Dr. Bhatti what are the cause etc and he can only tell me he don't know, each human body work differently and ask to come for a repair and hope for the best. Now let me ask you, if a surgeons tell you this would you even let him touch you?

Another reason could be the technique and the surgery itself. I know some of you will be delighted that I've finally come to this point but if that is the case then how do you explain the temple points growing out just fine. That would clearly point to a problem with your scalp.

- This is something which I have asked Bhatti, and he was so sure the FUE was the right technique. He claims his approach of FUE has always been a success, which now i doubt so. Also, i came across other cases over here which had same failure case, and it is not only me here. 

The doctors reply in this case is pretty accurate, seriously what more can you do apart from go to another doctor and document your story from the start so we can follow it and if it doesn't work this time I guess you owe Dr Bhatti a massive apology.

- How can I owe Bhatti an apology? So if I had another failed job i should owe him one? Also what is funny that you mention that he's reply is pretty accurate, let me remind you again he has been telling me he don't know what is the cause of my failed procedure, each human body works differently and he can only hope for the best if i go for a repair with him.. so is this a good a accurate reply?

On the other hand if it does work you have a strong case for at least a partial refund from Dr Bhatti. I would be more than happy to take this up for you.

- I think he should compensate me fully now itself. For what he commit and delivered just proves that it's failed job. He should man up and have some ethic to compensate me, which I know he won't. He has not even called me once to speak of my results when he know it's a failed job. What kind of responsible doctor is that?

And again, he's right; if it fails a 3rd time from another doc then there's no point in going on. Words I'm sure you don't want to hear but you should.

- I would not jump into another surgery now. Dr Bhatti admitted that his job failed, and he ask me to come for a complementary repair. However he seems to be not interested to investigate more and understand the cause of failure, just wants to shut me down by trying one more round. This is not an exchange of goods where we can just go on and allow anyone to experiment on yourself.

To round off, if the surgery was your first surgery with Dr Bhatti then you would have a strong case, but as it's a total failure and a repair from a previous unknown doctor's surgery then it was always going to be uncertain.  Seeing all the successful repairs Dr Bhatti had previously completed and documented you mitigated the risk by going to him but it didn't work and you should have at least had that thought at the back of your mind.

-Back of my mind for what now? Actually Dr Bhatti should have thought that this is a repair case and he should have known what need to be done for the repair? Never once he suggested me to go a biopsy before surgery when he know that i had a failure from first procedure. Funny that you are asking me to do the biopsy test when the doctor did not even this. 

Also you say you did your correspondence all through email, the fact is you had direct personal contact with Dr Bhatti throughout and no third party. You were also free to skype him as many patients do. I'm not really sure what else you expected. You have tried to twist this to make Dr Bhatti look bad. It will be interesting what your thoughts will be when your "elite" surgeon talks to you through one of his many secretaries.

- Never once he told me that I can contact him through skype or introduce him to his advisory or secretary to arrange a call. How can i twist this to make him look bad? In what way? You should start being more neutral and not trying so hard to defend him. I'm still curious how am I making him to look bad. 

To conclude you should go to that "elite" surgeon but you should be aware there are no guarantees. Prior to any surgery you should visit a few dermatologists and see whether they can find any underlying issue for the failure of nearly 4000 grafts to grow in 2 separate attempts from 2 differing techniques.

- Isn't this what Bhatti should have thought before he operates me? Why are you suggesting this and not the doctor?

I do understand your upset and I really hope it works out for you the next time.

 

FYI @Melvin-Moderator point number 3 which Shera raised. Here is where I mentioned that the first surgeon refunded me fully

Dear Community,

It has come to my attention that one of our recommended surgeon's representatives took it upon himself to contact a forum member's employer. We take these things very seriously, as this undermines how we run this community. We want the community to know that we do not condone this behavior, and we are firmly against any sort of intimidation, whether it be through contacting employers, or family members.

We have researched the allegations closely, and we have been provided with undeniable proof. As a result, we have decided to suspend this representatives participation on our forum. We have reached out to the physician, and he claims he was unaware of this reps actions, and he does not condone his actions/behavior either. We are still deciding on whether this suspension will be permanent, but in all likelihood it will. 

Moving forward, I ask every forum member to contact me in the event that something like this occurs again. I would like to remind the community and the public that we are patient advocates first and foremost. Please understand that we are here to help patients, our mantra is "created by patients for patients" many organizations claim that they are advocates, but turned a blind eye, that is not us. Please know we will be having these issues addressed promptly.

@Badresults

I am very sorry you had to face such crap circumstances. To get bad results is one thing but to have the clinic not support you AND go to that length to contact your employer as a means of intimidation is beyond me.

 

i hope you get the repair work you deserve and end up happy after this nightmare. 
 

great job @Melvin-Moderator for stepping up so quickly to get this resolved and to back the patient up. This forum is one of the rare places where you’ll see something like this. Bravo

Hi Melvin, 

Thanks for making it clear but I believe you should have named the surgeon and the representative in your announcement, so it would be clearer to anyone who comes and just read the latest post without going through the start of it. Some of them would do that and it could save someone to go through this all over again in future.

Also, I do not think Dr.bhatti from Darling Buds, or 5 Rivers Hair Transplant or whatever subsidiary centre he would want to call, are not aware of what his representative actions. Of course now that is what he would claim after me sending you the proof. If really he did not know what Shera who is Dr.Tejinder Bhatti representative from UK did, Bhatti would have come here and refuse or publicly reply me when I wrote 4 days ago and even when you reached out to him to reply. They was just waiting to see if I could get hold of the proof, and if I couldn't then he would come here to deny.

Question to you and everyone to wonder, why didn't the Doctor himself refuse or made any reply publicly from day one I started this post? Why didn't the doctor reply on the allegation when you asked him to do so? Why didn't the doctor discussed the results outcome publicly last year? why must a patient representative whom I did not consult reply me, when I did not even go to him for consultation? Why must a patient representative try to intimidate me by sending out an email to employers to shut me off? This is all a simple straightforward questions which nobody needs to be a genius to know the answer.

Simply because Dr.Tejinder Bhatti from Darling Buds, 5 Rivers Hair Transplant Chandigarh India knows everything from start and to calm things off now he don't mind even if the patient representative from UK Shera, being made a temporary scapegoat.

First of all, 
I must say that @Melvin-Moderator's response has really reinforced my faith in this forum. Great job at taking an ethical stance and showing solidarity with @Badresults
However, I do agree with @Badresults that it's unlikely that a representative took such drastic steps without instigation or on his own. 
I suggest the forum team to investigate further and remove the doctor from the list of recommended surgeons if any evidence of involvement is found. 
Otherwise the current response would be like shooting the messenger if this kind of behaviour continues from this clinic and surgeon. 

Any doctor who charges their patient for expensive surgery and then replies with "I don't know why your results are like this" etc just reeks of poor ethics and gross incompetence. 
This is not the first case of bad hair transplant result we are seeing from this clinic. They are plenty on this forum. And maybe even more bad results within the same country who got silenced by the representatives harrassment.

Dear Community,

I have spoken to Dr. Bhatti, and he advised me that he has been in communication with this patient via email until recently. He has offered the patient a touch-up procedure and invited him back to his clinic. He didn't make any excuses and mentioned that he will stand by his work, should the patient give him a chance to rectify the situation. 

In my opinion, he is standing by his work. I personally do not agree with non-disclosure agreements, to me giving a refund and attaching it to an NDA is hush money. This forum is great because it allows patients the opportunity to share their genuine reviews both good and bad. Unfortunately, NDA's robs patients the opportunity to share their real story, and robs our community as well.

In short, hair transplant surgery is never guaranteed, and any surgeon that guarantees their work is lying to you. Now, going back is completely up to this patient, personally I do believe in second chances, but I'm also cognizant of the fact that this patient has now had two failed transplants. The only thing I can offer is support, whatever he decides to do, and I'm here to help.

Let's move forwards and upwards,

Melvin,

First of all, Dr. Bhatti has not been in touch with me up to recently. The last he had any conversation with me was last year before I posted my results over here. That was on June 10th 2019! And on June 18th, after my posting here, Shera his representative sent that email to my employer. 

Now most importantly, as I have mentioned in above post since last year, Bhatti did not know what went wrong on his procedure. He couldn't give any solid explanation why the results is so so bad, and all he can say he don't know. If you had paid a sum to doctor for your surgery, and he could not explain to you what went wrong and only say 'lets hope for the best' would you go back to him and let him do an 'experiment' on you? Btw I only had 1 surgery before Bhatti, and best part when I met Bhatti first time in his clinic before surgery he was so quickly to judge the first procedure result is bad because they did not know how to do a surgery etc and he wrote me note to that I should post my result here.  

Never once Bhatti, asked me to go on Skype to have a look on my results or condition, his email reply is only 2 lines always. And you are suggesting that I should go back to him for a touch up? And that after his representative black mailing my employer? LOL, Knowing what his team had done before, I might not even come back alive from Chandigarh. 

I know like many other surgeries, there is no guarantee on hair transplant. However how the physician communicate and respond to you and address your concern and to what extend the physician put an effort to solve your problem says so much about a Doctor. Like I have said many times Dr. Bhatti reply has always been I don't know, lets hope for the best, I don't know what to tell you. With those reply with anyone let any doctor in this planet do an experiment on you?

Also, with so so many bad results and complain on this particular clinic, why is this surgeon still being a recommended doctor here? If in a real world, anyone who black mails a patient or anyone would face serious consequences.

If the doc does NOT condone this behavior, then this tells about the doc's ethics too and he should be removed from recommended surgeons list. Not sure if you're referring to reps suspension or docs suspension.

What the heck does a hair transplant have to do with employer or family or friends or the government? 

What did Shera say to your employer anyway?

Send me the emails, he told me he was in recent communication. I can only comment on what I’m told. 

In regards to the harassment, the rep explicitly mentioned acting alone, and there is no proof that Dr. Bhatti was aware. If you can provide me with any proof please do so, otherwise let’s stick to facts and not hearsay. 

When I mentioned this to the physician, he was in total agreement that it was not right.

Lastly, I’m not telling you anything, I’m here for support. Moving forward, if you decide to go with another surgeon, I would advise you to get a small test first, to ensure the grafts grow, and if they don’t, definitely get a biopsy.

The doctors knows about his rep and the rep has probably done it before, someone who blackmails people is obviously not a normal person, his account should be deleted from the website. If I were you I would post a video on youtube and explain what happened to you and attach all the proof that you have and move on because this will drag for ever and the doctor will still be recommended on this website.

Try reading a few posts above, you will see the action I’ve taken.

Not condone, means does not accept. I’m not sure if you think it’s the other way around. The rep has been suspended.

100% they have done it before, the rep and the doctor work together, no rep would act alone and risk getting sued and fired, blackmailing is serious but obviously the rep is being used a scapegoat and he still works with the doctor so he got out as if nothing happened.

Lastly, I’m not telling you anything, I’m here for support. Moving forward, if you decide to go with another surgeon, I would advise you to get a small test first, to ensure the grafts grow, and if they don’t, definitely get a biopsy.

If Bhatti said he has been in recent communication with me, did he show you the proof? And what made you believed him that he did? June 2019, is not recently if he think its recent then he should have get himself checked. 

Also, Bhatti mentioned to me in his last email that if I write over here he would have to 'defend himself', so what did he do then, get Shera to black mail me? This is when I asked for a refund after I refused his offer for touch up and repair, because he could not provide me a solid explanation what went wrong. He did not even take a look on Skype my condition and just asked me to fly down.. how convincing is that?

100% they have done it before, the rep and the doctor work together, no rep would act alone and risk getting sued and fired, blackmailing is serious but obviously the rep is being used a scapegoat and he still works with the doctor so he got out as if nothing happened. 

I 100% agree with you on this. I don't think Shera is so stupid to act alone in this. All they can do now is put the blame on a person, let the matter dies off and business get back as usual.

wow just read this thread. nightmare situation and totally unacceptable. this is really scary to be honest

even if @Shera explicitly said he acted alone, can you honestly believe him? its like domestic abuse and blackmailing as they say... chances are they've done it before and will do it again. this isnt the first time.

i wish you luck @Badresults. hopefully you can get your hair as you wish in the future

Thanks man. This has been a nightmare for me, the whole black mailing this was more worst than the result of hair transplant. It just made me realise how low can these guys get

@Badresults I would try and get a lawyer involved in this, speak to a lawyer, you can sue someone for blackmailing and maybe you can get a refund.

Yes, I have spoken to some of ,my friends in Delhi who happens to be a lawyer. However I might get in touch with few YouTubers soon who has been asking me the detail of this issue.

The doctors knows about his rep and the rep has probably done it before, someone who blackmails people is obviously not a normal person, his account should be deleted from the website. If I were you I would post a video on youtube and explain what happened to you and attach all the proof that you have and move on because this will drag for ever and the doctor will still be recommended on this website.

I agree with you. I would need to get this whole thing beyond this site and other platform which I haven't done yet to expand the awareness and then let it rest for once and all. It's been a total mess and disaster engaging this kind of doctor

Guys, 

I’m waiting for more information from OP. We take these concerns very seriously, I’m waiting for the email correspondence from the physician, to see what was said or offered. We will review the facts closely and make a decision based on facts. 

As previously mentioned, I will no longer tolerate behavior that undermines our credibility or integrity. I have not been silent or done nothing, but part of my job is making sure the appropriate actions are taken based on evidence. 

If there’s evidence that the surgeon was not standing by the patient or was aware of his rep contacting his employer, well have to remove him without a doubt. That said, we need to review everything before making a decision.
