From the first minute I entered Ziering Medical, I knew I was being listened to and taken care of. I have been to other cosmetic surgeons for consultations of various sorts, and they usually turn me off because they’re more salesmen than doctors. This is NOT one of those places. Ziering Medical was attentive and respectful right from the outset; I felt cared for and appreciated as a person and not just as a source of revenue. They in fact talked me out of a more expensive option and into a cheaper one, because it would better fit my needs and goals; the exact opposite of what many practices do. I ended up scheduling my procedure for two days after the consultation, and even though the timeline was a little rushed; I felt supported all the way and that I never had to hold back with any questions or concerns. On the day of my procedure, I was greeted warmly and introduced to the entire team who would be working on me. Everyone was welcoming, and more importantly professional — no second thoughts or buyers remorse here. During the 10-hour procedure, I watched Netflix and the team proactively kept me informed of what they were doing and how everything was progressing. They gave me a big folder of menus from which to order lunch, no charge. What really struck me was the dedication of the entire staff to one patient — me — the entire time. When they say they focus on quality not quantity, they mean it. I am not a VIP or a man of great means, in any way, but during the procedure I felt that the entire house was dedicated to me. They had no fewer than seven techncians working on dissecting the strip(I had FUT) into thousands of follicles, and a doctor was there at all times to make sure I had no pain. Dr. Ziering himself performed my procedure; he is a pleasure to work with and has a great sense of humor. At the end, the staff made absolutely sure I was ready to head home and in full understanding of the post-op instructions. It’s hard to describe a surgery as an enjoyable experience, but this comes close! In my follow-up appointments, I felt the same level of personal attention and care from Dr. Ross and the staff that I had felt throughout. Last week I had my six-month follow up and I was ecstatic to share my amazing results, and Dr. Ziering, Dr. Ross, and Kayla shared in my enthusiasm wholeheartedly. I am so pleased with the results; even after just six months the difference is tremendous; when I run my fingers through my hair it feels full, and the difference in photos is remarkable. In the front, above my forehead, I used to have a big tuft of hair surrounded by two empty spaces, now it looks completely full. When I see myself in a photo or in a mirror, I no longer think«oh no, I’m going bald». Moreover it looks and feels completely natural, Dr. Ziering matched the natural growth pattern of my hair so there’s really no way anyone could tell, unless you love talking about it like I do! I tell all of my friends and encourage them to look into it. The only downside is that you have a smile-shaped scar on the back of your head, but the scar itself healed so nicely that I can barely feel it. You’ll have to tell your hairstylist to leave it a tad longer in the back than usual, as the smile shape shows if your hair is too short or when you tilt your head forward, but that’s it. A minor tradeoff for the amazing difference on top! All in all I could not be more pleased with the procedure, the staff, and the results. I am so excited to see my hair come in futher over the coming months!
