Dr. Doğanay is recognized for introducing the DHI method to Turkey and has performed over 3,000 hair transplant surgeries. He is a member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) and the International Alliance of Hair Restoration Surgeons (IAHRS), and is known for his meticulous approach and commitment to achieving natural results.

Based on our research, the public evidence on Dr Doğanay and AHD Clinic is thin and anchored by one detailed report that is strongly negative on process and only mixed on results.5 The clinic appears to run a technician-heavy workflow with the doctor doing minimal planning, which puts more weight on team consistency than on surgeon-led execution.5 That same account raises serious concerns about facility standards, communication, and basic medical professionalism. The described result was a partial win at the front with weak density on one side and poor crown growth, which does not offset the process concerns.5 We do not see robust, independently documented, long-term results in the material we reviewed, and we have come across enough uncertainty in broader Turkey clinic discussions that we would be cautious here.3 Our read is that this is not a high-certainty choice, especially for risk-averse patients or complex cases.53
