    Default Ray Woods

    Ray Woods the Australian surgeon is credited as being the invertor of FUE since 1989. And in fact this is true. Apart from being the FUE invertor other Dr.s in various sites also claimed that he also the most experienced. which leads to the conclusion that he makes better work.

    So my question is this ?

    Why never see almost any work from him on the internet ? and why we dont see patients of him arround? all these many years i have seen very few patients on line.

    I think Woods should be doing great work and we need to see more of him.

    Are there any other reasons that we dont see anything from him ? I remember in the past a so called "popular" but currently infamous hairloss site refused to continue allowing posts about him becouse he didnt want to pay the fees anymore.

    Further more on the Woods promotion of his work there is non. And even worse by visiting his site, u get the idea that the site was created by a 10 yeard old boy in notepad in a half our time or so..

    Too bad.

    I think Dr. Woods was like a bright shooting star that burned itself out. He was the man several years ago but he was always very emotional when he posted on the sites. I began reading the forums about six years ago or so when I first found Spencer Kobren’s radio show in New York, and I vividly remember the drama surrounding Dr. Woods. I remember the owner of that site you are referring to posting constantly and fighting with EVERYONE, which turned me off from that site and the idea that Dr. Woods was as great as everyone said he was. I think the reason you don’t hear much from him is because he’s irrelevant now especially with doctors like Shapiro, Feller and others doing FUE. I bet people are flying from Australia to the States to have FUE even though Woods is right there. I am not saying that he’s a bad doctor, I’ve both read and heard Spencer Kobren saying he has much respect for Dr. Woods, I’m just saying that he lost the PR game and has become irrelevant.

    Is it possible that Dr. Woods’s patients are not told about these sites? If they don't find him on the forums then they might not know to post their pictures and stories. Just a thought.

    Maybe the work is not up to par anymore? If his FUE was better than everyone else I am sure that we would see examples of his work online.

    I do not think there is any drop off in Dr. Woods work---He has always seemed to march to his own tune, which does not necessarily include promoting his work or views online on a bunch of forums. I know he posts on another site, but have not seen him elsewhere.

    From those I have spoken to, he only does 500-800 grafts per day max (based on their relaying information to me on their consults) and some have said they find him a bit cost prohibitive.

    However, I have said before, when deciding between doctors, cost should only be a factor once you have narrowed your choices down. The quality of work is most important, not cost.
