Dr. Jerry Wong

Co-Founder·Hasson & Wong Hair Transplant Clinic

Vancouver, Canada

Background

Jerry Wong holds an MD from the University of Alberta and worked for several years as a general practitioner before moving into hair restoration surgery.1 He started a part-time hair transplant practice in 1993 and in 1997 co-founded the Hasson & Wong Hair Transplant Clinic in Vancouver with Dr. Victor Hasson, devoting his practice exclusively to hair restoration from that point.1 The clinic states that international patients make up half of its overall patient base.2

Procedures and techniques

Wong is credited by the clinic as the originator of the lateral slit technique, cutting recipient sites perpendicular to the direction of hair growth with the blade angled forward so transplanted hair sits at the same angle as existing hair.1 The clinic offers both FUT (strip) and FUE harvesting and says implantation quality depends on the doctors' skill regardless of which method collected the grafts.2 It classifies sessions of 3,000 or more grafts as megasessions and says it performs megasessions of three and four thousand grafts daily.2 Surgery runs roughly 5-6 hours under 2,000 grafts and 8 or more hours above 5,000.4

Pricing

The clinic's calculator lists FUE at $8 per graft for the first 2,000 grafts and $6 beyond that, with FUT priced at $6 for the first 2,000 and $4 beyond that; currency is not stated on the pricing page.3 Patients flying in for surgery of 2,000 grafts or more are offered a travel rebate plus two complimentary nights of accommodation.3 The clinic does not offer its own financing and instead directs patients to independent third-party financing companies.4

Booking and aftercare

The process starts with a free, no-obligation online assessment based on submitted photos; the clinic says its high volume of reviewed cases makes these estimates fairly accurate, though in-person exams can sometimes reveal more donor hair than first estimated.3 Patients return the day after surgery for a hair-washing lesson and a check-in with their physician, and the clinic recommends a minimum three-day stay in Vancouver.4

Credentials and memberships

The clinic's biography page states Wong served as a diplomate of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery and is a founding member of the Asian Association of Hair Restoration Surgery, where he remains active on the board of directors.1
