Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted July 26, 2019 Administrators Share Posted July 26, 2019 How many of you know about our patient websites and blogs? When I was researching surgeons I would spend a lot of time looking up the blogs. However, I fear most of you don't even know what a patient website is, so I would love to hear the communities input. https://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/ I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Senior Member LaserCap Posted July 26, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted July 26, 2019 I actually created one years ago to keep track of my healthcare information. Large clinics will actually help, if you ask, so that you have access to your chart, the meds you take, record of visits. In the end it helps to reduce healthcare costs. This, as it pertains to hair restoration, I would imagine it has to do more with the patient's overall experience with a particular entity. These tend to be nagative in nature and it's actually the clinic's worse nightmare. They are there for others to see immediately as soon as anyone starts researching. Lots out there. I believe blogs, and there are tons out there, share the experience of an individual in whatever task they are involved in. These are typically positive in nature. Hair restoration wise, a company could ask you to share your story. Far different than just provide feedback on Yelp, for example. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Patient websites are blogs that allow you to track your progress. It’s like a thread, except you don’t have to sift through pages and pages to see the results. Just like threads they can be positive or negative depending on the results. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Senior Member Shifty Posted July 27, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted July 27, 2019 (edited) Its not a great set up. It should all be on the same page. The links being on the left are fairly annoying. Edited July 27, 2019 by Shifty Link to what I did to grow my hair back without a transplant. 2 year update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
