Rickkk,

I understand that most people considering hair transplant surgery would rather go to a local doctor because it’s convenient for them.  However, any veteran member of this community will tell you that cost amd location should be the last considerations when selecting a surgeon.

Instead, use this community to research and find an outstanding surgeon you are impressed with based on their proven ability of consistently producing outstanding results.   Then, use cost and location as the last conditions in selecting a physician.  See the below.

How to Select an outstanding hair transplant surgeon. 

1.  Start by looking at the surgeons recommended by this community, in particular the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians.  Surgeons recommended by this community have met a demanding set of standards and are approved based on meeting those high standards.  Many online hair surgeon memberships don’t have any criteria other than to pay a membership fee.  Furthermore, physician members of the coalition have met an even higher and more demanding set of standards and have proven to be amongst the best of the best in the profession.

2. Now even amongst a list of outstanding surgeons, not all surgeons are created equally. Therefore, while it’s tempting to select a surgeon based on price or location, try to avoid this as many individuals travel great distances to undergo surgery with an elite surgeon they are most impressed with. Thus choose a surgeon based on their proven ability to produce outstanding results rather than because of cost or location.

3. Narrow your selection down to 3 to 5 surgeons you are most impressed with.  You can do this by using this discussion forum and others to view examples of patient results posted by both the clinic and their patients.  Speak with and meet with real patients in person if possible. If not, video chat works pretty well.

4. Come up with a list of consult questions to ask each surgeon/clinic you are considering. I’ve created several different posts on this forum with good questions to ask doctors.  If you need help coming up with a list of good questions, please let me know.

5. Consult with each doctor you are considering and ultimately, choose the surgeon you feel can best meet your goals.

I hope this helps

6. Stay away from clinics that hand you off to techs. Always ask the clinic you are consulting with to explain in detail which parts of the procedure is handled by the doctor. If, for example, a tech does all extractions, RUN don’t walk from that clinic.
