Are there any other locations where the Foundation doctors or patient advisors visit on occasion?
Posted June 24, 2011 2:45 PM
Yes, the Foundation doctors and their staff are constantly traveling throughout the United States and the world to visit patients in a variety of different cities. Each year, a number of cites are selected for special one-day only or two-day only visits where complimentary consultations are offered with the Foundation doctors. Over the last year, we have been to the following cities and plan to return to these cities approximately once every year to two years.
Other Foundation doctors have visited cities like Houston, Dallas, San Francisco, London, Boston and Washington, DC. Upcoming cities will be announced on our website at www.foundhair.com. Check back regularly for new city visit announcements.
Last, but not least, patients who live in cities where the Foundation doctors will not be visiting any time soon often select to have a web-cam consultation from the comfort of their own home. In this way patients are able to "visit" the doctor without actually physically flying or driving to the office.

Which doctors work in which locations?
Posted June 24, 2011 2:34 PM
Dr. Epstein, the Founder and Director of the Foundation for Hair Restoration and Plastic Surgery, is based in Miami, Florida as well as New York City. All of our patients do have the ability to see a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon who specializes in hair. Dr. Epstein is in New York City on certain days of the month. Either is an excellent choice is you are in the New York area or surrounding areas.
In Scottsdale, Arizona, we work with Dr. Shelly Friedman. He is the Founding President of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery.
In Boca Raton, we work with Dr. Glenn Charles. He is the Vice President of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery, which is the ABHRS.
In Aventura, we work with Dr. Richard Galitz. Dr. Galitz has been in practice since 1986 and was one of Dr. Epstein's original teachers in the area of ENT and Facial Plastic Surgery.
In Miami, we also work with Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Max Polo. Dr. Polo is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania who did his training at Sloan Kettering in New York City and has been in private practice for nearly a decade here in Miami, Florida.

As a woman, did you have much hair shock loss following your transplant?
Posted June 09, 2011 2:45 PM in Hairline Advancement
Question:
As a woman, did you have much hair shock loss following your transplant?
Answer:
There is always risk of shock hair loss- however, with my significant experience with procedures on women (typically performing 3 to 4 weekly), we are able to keep this risk to a surprising minimum, with very few patients having any degree of hair loss after the procedure. Some of this is due to the careful technique, but also due to the careful selection of patients so that they are good candidates.
Please feel free to email me some photos to evaluate.
