Episode 9: Dr Harrison Weisinger discusses all things prescription medication for hair loss and more!

The Gro Diaries Podcast

We had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr Harrison Weisinger (B.Sc., M.Sc., MB.BS, PhD) to discuss the prescription medication that is available for hair loss.
Dr Harrison has been with Gro since the very start, first prescribing and being a point of contact to becoming Medical Director of our online services and now COO.
With his vast knowledge and experience within the medical industry, he plays a major role in developing the services that we provide.
He also has his own hair loss experience to share, he understands the frustration that men go through and so he is able to relate.
Whether it's the side effects that you're worried about or you're wondering what the medications actually do, Dr Harrison covers it all, and how Gro's Prescription Hair Care service can help you!
