Update: Dr Rogers now under investigation by the GMC

[haggis]

Why does Dr Rogers not post some pictures of some of his work on here?

Apparently his patients dont like having their pictures taken :roll: :roll: :roll: This is what he said on another website.

Well, as I have said before here, I nearly tried to book Dr Rogers but the receptionist never bothered to get back to me. If she did, I may have gone ahead and booked it. People here advised Canada but I thought it would be too expensive. It wasn't and I booked Dr Rahal. It all ended up cheeper than Rogers' prices including flight and accomodation.

Seeing your results I am sooooooooo glad I went the Rahal way.

Hi Dalek, i think you should phone that receptionist and thank her

I just hope you get it fixed. Give Rahal a ring and see if he can fix it. I am sure he can.

How convenient!

Surely he could post a few pictures of hairlines and scalps he's worked on that he may be proud of as there really is no need to see the patients face?

Perhaps it's the good doctor himself that would rather not have his work shown on here?

That is a good idea, as i'm from the uk and still considering using Dr Rodgers. I have met with him before and was impressed enough, but financial circumstances prevented me booking the session.

He did not make any wild claims and showed pics of some of his recent work.

I understand that haggis is angry, i would be too but i have seen much worse hair transplants than his, some from around the same time as his and some years after.

Would you use Dr Rodgers today haggis?

Did you use any hairloss drugs after your transplant?

No i wouldnt use dr rogers again, not worth the risk and he's expensive.
ive been using finasteride/propecia since before i had any work done.

If i was you i would seriously consider flying over to the US or canada, the flight is only a small percentage of what you will spend on a hair transplant anyway.

And there is also a worry that Dr rogers may be associated with Dr kevin Hartley of the norton clinic.. http://www.clonemyhair.com/hairtransplantation/catalog/

Here is a recent dr rogers FUE transplant http://stophairlossnow.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=2654[/url]

As it happens i'm now looking into researching american Dr's. Cole and Feller look good so far, or possibly wong...maybe armarni.

Its worth paying for the best after all..

What up Haggis?

 

[haggis]

You got butchered big time haggis. why havent you fixed your hair since then?

Rambo, ive had 2800 grafts from dr cole 49 days ago, im already seeing a few small hairs popping up arond the hairline, not really noticable yet though but it early days :yes:

 

[haggis]

I wish you all the best mate!! I hope they come through for you.

I wasnt expecting to see anything happening until about 3 months, but theres definetly a few hairs coming through in areas where there hasnt been hairs for years

 

[haggis]

Wow , 49 days is very quick , Was it Fue or strip? and are you using minoxidil?

FUE, or fit as cole likes to call it, im not using minoxidil, just finasteride 1mg a day, and msm, multi vitamin

 

[haggis]

Atleast you know it was a good transplant.

I'll let you know if its any good in 12 months....

Re: Dr Rogers replies

It is a valid point though - if a patient is unhappy, he should always return to the original doctor first.

Patients dont go back to doctors who made a mess of things, its just not worth the risk of further disfigurement.

If there is a problem but you don't give feedback, how he will he/she know to change practice?

You are seriously saying you didnt know what a mess you made of your hair transplant's because your patients didnt give you feedback :roll:

After all, Haggis has an issue but it has taken him 10 years to let me know!

10 days or 10 years what does it matter, the damage was done as soon as i left your clinic. :kaputt:

So did you report Dr Rogers to the GMC or is the hearing for a different matter? I dont understand the obtaining services by deception, does this mean he is mis-selling a product or service? I could imagine is he is found guilty this could end his career however looking at Norton theres a way round being struck off and thats get another Dr to do the work for you

 

[carter]

I'm sorry to see this latest news but it is only an allegation at this stage.

I agree Lucky I don't understand the nature of the allegation either.

I have found Dr Rogers very professional in my experience and I hope it gets cleared up.

Im not sorry to see this news, dr rogers is a slimy peice of work, looks like the authorities have caught up with him.

no it wasnt me who reported him, welldone to whoever did though, unfortunately like you say drs usually get away with everything not a good advertisement for his hair transplant business though is it

 

[Vega]

in my opinion, dr rogers is a nice, genuine, upfront and honest decent surgeon. I've had two procedures done by him, and have no complaints at all. Good staff, honest approach and decent work. Exactly what you look for in a surgeon.

you do occasionally get awkward patients who complain about anything, without actually seeing the bigger picture. I suspect this complaint is one of those. Maybe he didn't put sugar in his cup of coffee or something

I totally agree with your opinion on Dr Rogers Vega - similarly I've had two procedures in Jan 06 and Jan 07 and I'm really seeing the results coming through now. Anyone can make an allegation, we live in a compensation and claim culture.
