The guys continue their conversation with James from Galashiels touching on issues like attempting to hide undergoing hair transplant surgery from your significant other or even your co-workers.
Spencer Kobren and Joe Tillman discuss the very real issue of physician pandering, a tactic used by some in the field to win the favor and to appeal to vulnerable and usually young hair loss sufferers who frequent the various online hair loss message forums While the term is most notably associated with politics, there are physicians who are known to spend a great deal of time publicly expressing their views for the sole purpose of leveraging these very visible platforms to draw support and in turn generate more income by expressing views that do not necessarily reflect good scientific research or the responsible practice of medicine.
If you’re scheduled for hair transplant surgery, but are having second thoughts for any reason, the rule of thumb here at TBT is “go with your gut.” Spencer Kobren and Joe Tillman take a call from Alex, a BTT forum member who was minutes away from boarding a plane to Istanbul and chose to turn around, get back in his car and cancel is scheduled procedure. While state of the art hair transplant surgery has positively and profoundly impacted the lives of of many, there is nothing wrong with waiting and if things don’t feel right, sometimes leaving that deposit on the table is money well spent.
"Spencer Kobren's nationally syndicated show "The Bald Truth" has a dedicated listenership that would have Rush Limbaugh pulling his hair out in envy." --Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.
