    I did have Dr. DiStefano do a repair in November 2010. I believe he used a single blade. He did a strip procedure using 1, 2, and 3 hair grafts. He put grafts between the plugs and also softened the hairline. They estimated before the procedure about 1200 grafts. The day of the procedure he asked me if I wanted to do more grafts if possible. I said yes so he did between 1500 to 1600 grafts. (I don't remember the exact amount.) It did cost a bit more for the extra but I was fine with that. When I got home and looked in the mirror, I could see he had put grafts everywhere. Even my wife was surprised compared to what I got previously from Dr. Leonard who didn't even give me a graft count. Now people don't stare at my head like they did before the repair. I'm thinking of going back for one more session some day. Dr. D told me he could make it look better and he did. I will add pictures to my profile later today or tomorrow if you want to see them. I'm just giving my account of my experience with Dr. DiStefano. I'm very pleased with my results from him. I noticed he's not a recommended doctor on this site at this time. I also am not affiliated in any way with him or his office.

    What is a coalition doctor? Where do I find a list of these doctors?

    I can take a picture of what I have now. I don't have any before the first HT procedure.

    Has anyone had a plug repair done by Dr. DiStefano in Warwick, RI., and what kind of results - good or bad? I feel the doctor may be capable but would like some feedback from others before making a final decision.
