I can only imagine how hard it must be running a forum. This site offers fair and unbiased advice, the reason I joined.

This is one of most open transparent forums online without 'interference' and 'bias' in favour of paying clinics . In which Big Mac should be commended.
Most people around long enough know these other forums with their little hitler moderators and their 'guru' shills are a joke!

It is disturbing since forums are suppose to be a place where you can learn and ,support other patient journeys,in a Fair n open setting.But once it becomes tainted it ruins it for the patients who are looking for honest n reliable information , the more knowledgeable you are about Hairtransplants, the better the chance you will have in picking a good surgen ,wether its fue or strip ,and a good result.Hairtransplant industry has a bad reputation in the past with miss information ,n it unfortunately still exists today in certain situations, just the other day i was on Youtube , n i came across a website that was promoting the neograft, n in the patient result section , i saw 4 HnW patients, UNBELIEVABLE

Thanks guys. It is tough running a forum, especially when I closely interact with both patients and doctors. Sometimes threads need locking and in rare occasions removed.
Hopefully, the thread in question can be resolved between doctor and patient.

So what was the complaint about, and who was the doctor? If this forum is open and transparent then we don't need to hide this information, right?

In my opinion, unless the OP that was complaining posts on this forum, it's not our place to repeat what was said on the other forums because we also don't know if the OP removed the posts himself.
What's unusual about this case is that if unfounded complaints are made it is usually addressed and rebutted by either the clinic or the admins of the forum and then the issue is dealt with accordingly by being removed or locked to prevent further commentary. None of this happened as the post(s) were made and then removed without a whisper, thus, showing that transparency is not always transparent.

By keeping this complaint private you further risk others choosing this same doctor and repeating their mistake. Furthermore, if you post this information on a private forum, you can't go back and edit your post and hope that everyone forgets what you posted. Once you hit the reply/post button, any privacy regarding your procedure is forfeited.

If the OP removed his posts, that's his business, but one you make an initial post that information becomes public domain, unless you have a forum that runs interference for doctors by covering their tracks. And who would be surprised by such behavior? Money usually trumps ethics in this business.
