👍👍 I went to the clinic several years ago. I received practical, clear and concise advice about my hair loss and was recommended to take a vitamin supplement. I saw results in a few months and have continued with the vitamins ever since. Thanks so much to the doctors and the clinic for your help.

    If there was an option for zero stars I would rate them as that. I went to their website and left some details in their chat. A few days later someone by the name of Shan emailed me back asking me to send in pics and complete a questionnaire. I did exactly that and did it the same day the questionnaire came in. All good until this point. The problem then is that nobody replied. I then forwarded my email again, it could be someone missed it. Still now reply. I waited for a few days to past and forwarded my email for a third time with all my pics and questionnaire completed. Again, no reply, not even a courtesy email, just nothing. My original message to them was 24 Aug and today is 7 Sept, 14 days later and they have pics of me and do not reply.

    Awesome experience at MHR! The doctors are experts in their field and make you feel at ease from the moment you walk in. All the staff is so friendly and accommodating and overall just a really cool experience. I am so happy with my results and would highly recommend them to anyone considering hair loss treatment. Thanks DR Ryan and staff!

    It has been almost exactly a year since Dr Larry performed FUT Hair transplant on me. I have waited this long to write a review because it takes about a year to see the final results. Where to start? There are about 4-5 hair clinics in Cape Town. So how do you figure out which one to trust? I found it very difficult to find other people who have had an operation to speak too. I knew Dr Larry had been practicing for 30 years and I have seen him featured as a guest on numerous TV shows over the years. So I decided that he would be the best person to choose. A year later I am really happy with the results... It's really amazing and I will try and post some pictures here. Included is some infomation on the operation and the aftermath. I was really nervous about the procedure but a hair transplant is actually a minor operation and day of the operation went very smoothly. The big thing to note is that after the operation your face swells up and you look like Harry Potter when his face got jinxed in Malfoy Manor in Deathly Hallows part 1(you get written briefing about all these and other things). Other then that the back of my head felt mildly numb for about 2 months after(from FUT). The big takeaway you need to realize is it going to take ONE YEAR to grow your hair - to see the final results. The other thing is because the hair is from the back of your head it does not act exactly the same as the hair in the front. I used to have a cow lick but the new hair acts differently now. Also you are going take a single daily tablet of propecia for the rest of your life. A certain number of people do get bad sexual side effects so be aware of that, and read up about it, but I have been lucky and only had a temporary libido drop that returned to normal after a month or 2. Would I recommend Medical Hair Restoration and Dr Larry? 100% Yes, definitely! If you want ask more about my experience please don't hesitate too. I would have really appreciated finding someone to talk that had been through it all before.

    Usually get superb service when ordering products online. Been waiting over a month for my shipment now, no replies to emails and a rude person answering the phone named Shan, condescending and unhelpful. Really unimpressed with how bad the service has gotten from when I started ordering, not sure what alternatives there are in ZA

    The team at MedHair are incredible. I have been using them for more than 8 years now and could not be any happier. I would not bother going anywhere else and am so happy with my results. I strongly believe that they are the best Hair Clinic in South Africa. Keep up the amazing work :-)

    My experience with MHR was extremely professional right from the start. Prior to the procedure and after many calls and discussions with Dr Larry we decided on which option would be best for me. During the discussion as well as during the procedure I felt comfortable and at ease at all times. Thank you to Dr. Ryan for his meticulous attention to detail during the procedure along with the assistance of his expert team. I look forward to a great result ! It is four and a half months post procedure and I am very happy with the results thus far - in all probability the full benefit will likely only be seen near twelve months post procedure.

    My experience with MHR & Dr Larry was extremely professional & pleasing. Dr Larry & his staff are always friendly & willing to assist. The products they sell are affordable & highly effective. The staff are very professional & always made me feel comfortable when I attended my appointments. When I went for my first PRP treatment I was very afraid & nervous , but Dr Larry & his staff was so caring & kind, it made the whole process so much easier for me. The doctor was very gentle with me & explained each step of the procedure. I would highly recommend Dr Larry to anyone in need of a hair care specialist.

    World class service! The transplant was done 10 months ago and so excited with the progress of my hairline. Thank you so much to Dr Larry and the team. I can’t believe I flew to Cape Town for the procedure and flew back to Joburg on the same day, I wouldn’t recommend that though hahaha

    As a medical practitioner myself and only 4 months after surgery I am amazed by my result so far. Can't wait to see the final result. Definitely recommend this facility. Both for medically maintaining your hair and to replace the hair you have lost.

    After years of deliberating what to do with my hairline issue, a friend recommended consulting with Dr Lakob in Morningside. He was a great starting point as he was friendly, knowledgeable and very supportive. I knew that I wanted to proceed with the FUT hair transplant based on his recommendation but I had to wait on the right time and once the time had arrived nothing could have prepared me for the brilliance that awaited me after the encounter with Dr Lakob. To Dr Ryan, Shan, Angelo and the 4 angels who worked on my grafts (two of whom transplanted them as well) - you're a fantastic team of people who made the great trek from Gauteng to Western Cape ever so worth it. Your ability to make one feel welcomed and at ease knowing that they are in capable and attentive hands is such a plus when not knowing what to expect and going into a procedure like this that may seem quite daunting. The way you provide a detailed account of each step of the procedure, why it's done a certain way and how it will be of benefit allows one to be aware and confidently trust the process. I Iiterally felt like a queen considering how well I was taken care of from ensuring I had eaten, I had the correct attire on for the procedure, I was comfortable, warm and never in pain and I was accompanied to the uber driver to ensure my safety after the procedure. I was in the company of genuine, kind hearted people who impact others daily with their life changing work. I give the experience a more than content 20 out of 10 because it exceeded my expectations and now I look forward to patiently observing how my hair grows on the grafted area and fully embracing the blessing of the gift that MHR has given to me. Thank you so much for everything, you've recruited a huge fan and I will sing your praises any chance I get.

    I paid for an online consultation on 28th April, and it's now the 3rd May. I have not heard anything. I have sent emails with no responses. Not great service, from the start. Update, I was contacted. An appointment was set up. I am very happy with the appointment and the way forward with my treatment. The doctor was very kind and understanding to listen to my health situation. She recommended a treatment program and said I could email with any questions. After the consultation, I sent up a follow-up email and never heard back. Shocking

I highly recommend the Company Doctors & all the staff & can only give them a 5 Star rating

    Its been 7.5 months since my FUT procedure with Dr Larry and here is my review: Larry is a wizard, and a master of his craft. Myself and my wife have been blown away by the results achieved. I feel and look 25 again and no longer hide my scalp under caps daily. I decided on FUT over FUE due to finances and the fact I am not someone who shaves his head ever, so a small scar hidden away didnt bother me. I can say that in only 7.5 months the scar is already hard to find. I believe in a year or two it wont even be found. I expected the prescribed wait of 4 to 6 months before seeing results but I can say that with in 6 weeks my hair was growing out and by month 3 I looked like a new chap. Is been a great experience with Medhair and Dr Larry. Money so well spent, that didnt require me having to trek over seas to get beyond the desired results achieved. Thanks you again Medhair !!

    Medical Hair Research are not only experts in their field, but go the extra mile in providing amazing end-to-end patient care and service. I could not recommend them more highly, and their client communication and care is exemplary. Many thanks, Dr Ryan and team!

    Dr Larry Gershowitz is BRILLIANT!!! He is so enthusiastic, kind, understanding, humble, and super knowledgeable. I got depressed after losing most of my hair and not being able to find a medical reason for it. I had spent thousands on special shampoos, treatments, and organic oils, which didn’t help at all! Dr Gershowitz took one look at my scalp and smiled and put me at ease confident he could help.. and that he did! He put me on his treatment, which only cost R200! I couldn’t believe my ears. I was expecting to pay hundreds, if not thousands. Normally the treatment takes 4 months to work, I saw results by the second month and massive results after 3 months. He was excited with me today when he saw the phenomenal results. I feel more self confident now and so appreciative of his awesome patient care. He really cares, and that has made the experience great. I met his colleague today and he is just as kind and engaging. Anyone needing help with hair loss should come here. Thank you Medhair.

    Don't waste your time and money on any of these fake products and lazer treatments. Believe me, I have tried most of them with Zero results. MHR is simply the best way forward. Dr Larry and Dr Ryan restored my confidence like never before. Wish I had found MHR earlier in life. Keep up the great work Doc's and your staff are equally awesome.

  • 1/5 saul m. 1 year ago on Google
    Sent an email to enquire about a procedure, got a reply to which I replied back and since then been waiting 3 months to hear back, countless emails sent to them with not even a reply... personally wouldn't recommend based on the service I recieved...

  • 5/5 muzan203 1 year ago on Google
    I Highly recommend this practice, the doctor is absolutely brilliant and he takes the time to explain all the possible treatment options that you can have . I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family

  • 5/5 Geraldine L. 1 year ago on Google
    Saw these lovely doctors last year - my hair fell out after severe Covid infection - they gave me great advice. Also sold me Biotin cheaper than health shop prices. They see their work as an art and don’t promise what they can’t deliver. I am a medical doctor and would highly recommend them!

  • 5/5 Yvette N. 1 year ago on Google
    I can highly recommend Dr.Larry as he was very clear about possible results after opting to do a small skin excursion. The whole process ran very smooth & results as expected. A folllow-up hair implant session is required but it was expected, so im happy to be In good hands for thst op, as soon as my budget allows.

    Unfortunately, the amazing results I got from my world-class treatment by doctor will always remind me of the of the nurses "skinnering" in my presence during my surgery and even commenting on my partner's ethnicity/skin colour as well as enquiring if I would also go a skin tone darker.

  • 5/5 Johan Van Der W. 4 years ago on Google
    Two years ago I had my first contact with the team at MHR. After being to other hair treatment practices with poor results I was sceptical. Since then I had a few procedures with them and had amazing results. I have recommended the MHR team to many friends struggling with hairloss and I will continue seeing them for follow up and support.
