 |  LISTEN THEIR CONCERNS  |  show details
Jun 26th, 2012

Dr. Omeed Mermar was such a good heart; I went to check for appearing confident which need to improved my facial. To be honest, when I see in him that I actually not satisfied what I request. He necessitated to listening their concerns to give them to be happy and satisfaction for needing to make look confident themselves. Actually He must be more honest to be truly for himself not his own way, not look after money for his expectation but he need more humble and respectfully what clients desires for best appearance in contentment I believe Dr. Memar has expert skillful and talents that he had but not necessary to be actor. I am looking for truly doctor who is excellent listener and respect their wishes, not for himself want. I am straightforwardly sorry that I am not satisfaction at all.

by Steve321 on Dec 12th, 2008 on kudzu.com

Dr. Memar and his staff are true experts in their field and very professional. I believe (along with my wife who makes frequent comments about how much hair I now have)that going to Dr. Memar contributed greatly to the success of my procedures. Doing alot of research beforehand(as well as getting a referral from another highly respected dermotologist that my wife used which led me to Dr. Memar), and knowing costs, etc. I can say that it was worth every penny. You do need to have reasonable expectations(you will not have a thick head of hair), and lots of patience and care, but there is absolutely no alternative to having your own hair on the top of your head. I read that it is common to have "shock loss" of a lot of native hairs following procedure while waiting for the new hair to grow in. I actually did not have this, and I believe it is in large part to the expertise and care Dr. Memar and his staff.I hope this helps, Steve
