steveo12345 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I've narrowed down my choice of HT surgeons to the above three doctors. Anyone know of any past or present issues--ethical, medical, legal--I should be aware of? Thanks, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Britanium Posted June 11, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) Definitely Dr Carman not even close... check out the forum results. Have you also seen the forums recommended list: https://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/Consult-a-Physician/hair-transplant-surgeons.asp?sr=HRN-MOB Any particular reason you was choosing the 3 names you mentioned?

steveo12345 Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 I've chosen the three since they've all gotten good reviews. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Reviews from where? Just asking as it’s very difficult to get true reviews unless it’s actual patient posted full journeys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted June 11, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 11, 2021 In my opinion, you’d be choosing a good ethical doctor with Dr. Carman.

steveo12345 Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 One review site I've visited is RealSelf. Granted many posts are from those who traveled to Turkey for their HT's, a highly dubious choice in my view. But there have been posts from those who stayed in this country for their operations. Also another site, the Bald Truth. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Britanium Posted June 11, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted June 11, 2021 Turkey is fine if you keep to no more than the few that are doing decent work. Dr Bicer, HLC, Pekiner and even Keser. This forums recommended list is excellent. Although there are of course other decent Drs/Clinics that are not on the list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member deeznuts Posted June 11, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) Dr. Pak is Dr. Rassman's protege right? Dr. Rassman has trained some great doctors like Dr Mohebi and worked with other great ones like Dr. Bernstein. Plus he's super ethical. At the end of the day, you just have to look at the doctors results on patients with similar hair loss patterns as you. Look at the doctors style and whether you think their goals align with yours. For example, I had a local doc recommend my like 1200 grafts just because he's a conservative guy and then Hasson and Wong went and recommended me 3000 grafts the following week. Make sure you don't only look at the doctors cherrypicked results and find ones from real patients. Edited June 11, 2021 by deeznuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Future Hair Doc Posted June 11, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted June 11, 2021 Dr. Carman and Dr. Mohebi and and it's not even close. 2 My advice does not constitute a patient-physician relationship nor as medical advice and all medical questions/concerns should be addressed to your medical provider.
