If a doctor is not a member of IAHRS is he/she a definite NO NO!?

Farsaan yaar deko, i think every doc that is on he ISHRS list was one time not on it. Just because a doctor is not on the list doesn't mean he or she is not good. Even if there is a doctor on the ISHRS, that also doesnt mean he or she is perfect. Folks can still end up being repair cases and be hurt. You just have to do thorough research and see what is the best for you. Hope things go well for you.

If they are IAHRHS then does that mean they are a decent transplant surgeon? Should we feel safe with them?

No matter what a surgeon writes to you or tells you in person or in writing, apparantly There are no gaurantees. Im starting to think most results posted by doctors, their staff, clinics do not indicate how it appears on majority of patients. There have been issues with surgeons on lists as well as outside of any online list. It is not easy to tell. Definitely do your due diligence and do not fall for any hype. Talk to some folks genuinely suffering due to repairs. There are plenty online. That may help. Best of luck.

Theres plenty of good doctors that are not members of IAHRS. However you know if the doctor is part of the IAHRS, chances are they are ethical and have a solid background in hair restoration surgery.
