Dr. Jerry Wong is a co-founder of Hasson & Wong Hair Transplant Clinic in Vancouver, Canada. He is renowned for developing the lateral slit technique, which improves hair direction, angle, and coverage in hair transplantation. Dr. Wong exclusively performs Ultra Refined Follicular Unit Hair Transplantation and has dedicated his practice solely to hair restoration surgery.

Based on our research, this is a credible but mixed option. The historic reputation is strong and there are recent reports of smooth surgical days, friendly and capable technicians, and competent outcomes, including dense repair work. 9567 We also reviewed a diffuse NW6 patient who went to Dr Wong for FUT and described the result as decent so far, then planned a later FUE elsewhere mainly for value rather than because of a failed result. 1 The concerns are not trivial. We have read feedback advising to avoid H&W on the grounds that the surgeons are less hands on, with key steps delegated and row style implantation that some consider inappropriate for diffuse thinners. 84 We also saw a consult that did not inspire confidence, with worries about a high graft number, graft handling, and hairline quality, which led that patient to choose another surgeon despite living in Vancouver. 10 Our read is that Dr Wong and H&W remain a high tier, high cost choice with real pedigree, but we would want clarity on who does what, how implantation will be executed, and whether graft numbers and design match the patient’s goals. 17810
