What a Hair Loss Doctor Checks First, and Why a Physical Misses It.
The hair consult is a forty five minute medical assessment of hair loss. It combines trichoscopy (magnified scalp imaging that reads follicle density and miniaturization), baseline photographs, and a blood panel covering thyroid, ferritin, vitamin D, B12 and hormones. At Club 116 in Manhattan it costs $350, is credited against any plan, and commits you to nothing.
Hair loss has more than one cause, and the treatments are not interchangeable. Pattern hair loss shrinks follicles slowly under the influence of DHT, the hormone that miniaturizes follicles in men and women. Low iron, an underactive thyroid, low vitamin D or a hormone shift cause shedding that looks similar in the mirror and responds to none of the scalp treatments. The consult separates the two before anything is sold. Then the plan follows the same order every time: test first, keep what is alive with prescriptions, PRP or laser, and replace what is gone with a transplant.
Who it is for
Anyone who has noticed thinning and wants to know what is driving it. A widening part, a hairline that has moved, more hair in the shower drain, a ponytail that has lost its thickness, or a crown that shows in photographs. Men and women are both seen. It is the first step for every hair plan here, and it is often the whole answer when the bloodwork finds something reversible.
Why do it here
The doctor reads your bloodwork personally and signs off on the plan before anyone books a treatment. Bloodwork is processed by a New York State licensed clinical laboratory. Photographs are taken under the same lighting each visit, so progress is measured rather than guessed. Nobody here works on commission, and every price on the plan you receive is already published on this site.
Before, During and After.
There is nothing to prepare and no fasting. Come as you are, with your hair unwashed if you can manage it, since that makes shedding easier to read. Bring a list of any medicines and supplements, and any bloodwork from the last year. If you started with the $95 online doctor review, that fee comes off this visit.
The doctor takes your history: when the thinning started, how fast it has moved, your family pattern, illnesses, medicines, diet, stress and, for women, cycles and pregnancies. A trichoscope reads follicle density and the proportion of miniaturized hairs across the scalp. Photographs are taken under fixed lighting from set angles. Then a blood draw, about the size of a routine lab test, for thyroid, ferritin, vitamin D, B12 and hormones. Nothing is injected and nothing shows when you leave.
You go straight back to your day. The written plan is handed to you on the day, with prices, and it names which of the three steps you are on. The bloodwork is back within a week and the doctor calls or writes with the results, adjusting the plan where the panel changes it.
The result of this visit is a diagnosis and a plan. If the panel finds a reversible cause, that is treated first and the scalp is rechecked. If it is pattern hair loss, the plan sets out prescriptions, PRP or laser where follicles are still alive, and FUE where they are gone. The $350 is credited against whatever you go ahead with.

Downtime and aftercare
None. The blood draw leaves a small plaster on the arm. You can train, wash your hair and go to work the same afternoon. Anything specific to your case is written into the plan.
Not for you if
Nobody is excluded from a consult, but be aware of what it is not. It is not a treatment, so it does not stop shedding on its own. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, tell the doctor, since it changes which medicines can be discussed. Finasteride is prescription only, side effects are discussed first, and it is not prescribed to women who are or may become pregnant. Sudden patchy hair loss with scalp pain or scaling should be seen sooner rather than later.

Hair Loss Doctor in NYC: Questions People Ask First.
How much does it cost to see a hair loss doctor in NYC?
At Club 116 on Central Park South, the hair consult with bloodwork is $350, and $280 for members. The fee is credited against any plan you go ahead with. Prices for everything the plan might include are published on this site.
How long does the hair consult take, and is it one visit?
Forty five minutes with the doctor, in one visit. The bloodwork is back within a week and the doctor follows up with the results. Photographs are repeated at three and six months if you start treatment, so change is measured against the baseline.
What blood tests are done for hair loss?
Thyroid, ferritin (stored iron), vitamin D, B12 and hormones. These are the reversible causes of shedding that a standard physical rarely checks. Low ferritin and thyroid problems are especially common in women with diffuse thinning. If a fasting test turns out to be useful, it is added to a second draw.
Can I just get the hair loss blood test without a plan?
Yes, and plenty of people do. It is $350, the doctor still reads the panel personally and tells you what it means, and it commits you to nothing at all.
Do I need to fast before the hair consult?
No. Come as you are, at any time between 8am and 8pm, Monday to Saturday. Unwashed hair helps the scalp reading but is not required.
Does a hair loss doctor in Manhattan see women as well as men?
Yes. Women make up a large share of hair consults here. Female hair loss is more often driven by iron, thyroid and hormone changes than male hair loss is, which is exactly why the blood panel comes before any scalp treatment is recommended.
