Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Barusco is an amazing professional
Dr. Barusco is an amazing professional in this field. Dr Barusco is truly one of a kind and is very thorough always during all my appointments. He takes time during the appointments to always fully understand the patient needs and never rushes the visit to make sure that all my questions are always answered.His focus is always patient-centered approach. I have been to many hair restoration clinics prior to coming to Dr Barusco and all they want to do is get you in the chair to make their money and move on to the next patient. This is not Dr. Barusco's approach at all. If you want to experience a doctor who truly cares and takes time to understand his patient's needs and not just immediately look to make money and misguide anyone, then I can assure you 110% that you will want to come to Dr. Barusco. His honesty and professionalism are evident from the time you enter the office and discuss your concerns and needs. His staff is very helpful and responsive to get all and any questi

Dr Barusco's knowledge and artistry skills are amazing. I have hereditary-pattern baldness. My father, brother, grandpa, and I have had surgeries with Dr. Barusco. We completely trust his skills and abilities. Hair loss progresses throughout life, I think about 5% per year, and you will need an expert doctor to guide you in this journey. Dr. Barusco is our 'hair doctor'. I highly recommend him to anyone who suffers from hair loss. His entire team is very caring and makes a great experience every time we go there.

Extremely happy with my results!I wanted to have a burly beard and I was so frustrated that couldn't grow my beard without some visible patches. As a husband and father of four children, I just had other financial priorities and learnt to live with this frustration until my wife and I went to see Dr. Barusco in January this year. What a life changing event!!! With the support of my wife and following doctor's instruction to a tee, I can't tell you in words how excited I am with my beard results; see for yourself (pictures attached). I recommend Dr. Barusco without any hesitation to whoever wants a hair transplant. Thank you doc, you are the best! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your staff. Argelis F.

No noticeable results Extremely disappointing.
I went to Dr Barusco in 2019. I wanted my hairline improved. He wanted to do 800 graphs. I decided to to go with 500 and I’m glade I didn’t go for anymore. I saw absolutely no change in my hairline. Because of the pandemic hitting us I got stuck in Connecticut for the following year but I did send him detailed pictures. I was told to wait that it takes time. Hair transplant surgery was not new to me having the procedures done 4 times previously so I think I know what’s up. I use a lazer comb, finesteride and oral minoxidil for maintenance and they work well keeping the hair I have. You need to have trust in you doctor and these procedures are not cheep and I feel the man just completely blew it in my case. Others who saw the results said why did you throw your money away ? Also, I’m still trying to figure out exactly where he took the 500 graphs from . There was no bleeding or soreness anywhere around the sides or back of my head. Oh well .

I was contemplating a hair transplant. My research led me to the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) which is the leading authority on hair loss treatment and restoration. Dr. Marco Barusco is not only a member of the organization, but a Fellow. Less than 10% of the ISHRS members are Fellows. I knew I couldn’t go wrong and contacted him. Watch out for those clinics that allow technicians to do the transplants. A hair transplant is surgery. Only a surgeon experienced in hair restoration should be doing the surgery. Dr. Barusco is such a surgeon and more! He offers free virtual and personal consultations, both of which I took advantage of. I was blown away by his generosity and integrity. After examining my scalp, Dr. Barusco concluded that I was not a candidate for hair transplant. He thought I would do better on medication which he prescribed. A lot of doctors would push for surgery for financial gain. Not Dr. Barusco! His assistant, Jessica, is as wonderful and kind as he is. I felt so welcomed and valued. Thank you, Dr. Barusco and Jessica!!!

Dr. Barusco and the team he has assembled are quite amazing to put it bluntly. He has a passion for his craft and his team shares that passion. I felt very taken care of before, during and even after. They don’t forget about you after the operation, they follow up and make sure that everything is going good. It’s really nice to go to a Doctor that you tell, loves what he does.

52 year old male with thinning hair, had been thinking about this for some time and my wife talked me in to doing it now rather then later I wish I had done it even more earlier ! Did a lot of research and the most important thing was having it done correctly the cost was not an issue for me and I didn't shave my head. Dr Barusco and his team was amazing they are all very professional and caring the percidure was very easy no pain only some discomfort for the next couple weeks. Don't wait do it!

First class experience from start to finish! Im the biggest whimp and was very nervous to have the new PRP/Stem Cell Procedure but as I am recovering I can say how Tempus Hair Restoration made it so simple! Im 37 and am experiencing thinning and when I learned of this new procedure I met with Dr. Barusco. Him and his entire team from Jessica at the front desk to Maddie his right hand woman...are all first class!! Only choice in hair restoration!

Caring, professional and skilled staff. Knowledgeable about the latest trends in hair transplant. Dedicated to quality patient care. My first results with a highly recommended doctor from New York we're horrible. My second time around with Dr. Barusco was very successful. Don't go anywhere else.
