What is the downside of going to a clinic that uses traveling techs? I mean if the techs are REALLY skilled wouldn’t they just be spreading their good tech ways across the various hair transplant clinics they work for?

Traveling techs are a big problem in this field.

Most doctors who hire them have no idea who these people really are or what their backgrounds are. Regardless, these doctors hire them to work on the scalps of their unsuspecting patients. This is a violation of patient trust that boarders on the criminal IMO.

How would you like it if during a your procedure you found out that one or more of the techs working on you was a stranger to the practice and to the doctor himself? That the person didn’t live in that area and had no allegiance  to that doctor or practice? That if things got rough, they could just disappear without any accountability? Not a comforting feeling, is it?

Traveling techs are by nature part-timers. That is unacceptable in a field that requires daily practice to not only maintain skill level, but to improve.

Teamwork is at the very heart of any successful endeavor. The very best clinics in the world have teams of techs who have worked with each other for years.

Traveling techs, in sharp contrast, are loners who can’t work in true teams because they are never in one clinic with the same people long enough. Such techs are usually considered to be “intruders” and are usually shunned. [Read Full Article]
