Patients come to Madison Hair Transplant Clinic (MHTC) mainly as a result of referrals from physicians or other patients. Dr. Gencheff and MHTC’s strong reputation was earned as a result of Dr. Gencheff's caring attention to detail and the superb results he has consistently produced for his patients.

Dr. Gencheff takes a very hands on approach to surgery. He not only makes all graft incisions and places many of the grafts, but also works side by side with his medical technicians in trimming the grafts to assure quality. His staff of very experienced surgical technicians are very conscientious and have worked with him for many years.

In addition to his extensive surgical practice, since 1993 Dr. Gencheff has been a Clinical Research Investigator with Merck Pharmaceuticals involved in the clinical trial studies of Propecia. He is very knowledgeable about both surgical and non-surgical treatments of hair loss and provides free consultations.  He also prescribes Propecia for his patients.

When a patient chooses to start Propecia, an assessment is done to stage the current hair loss and detailed photographs are taken. These photos and assessment enable Dr. Gencheff to see how effective Propecia has been after the first year's therapy and help determine if it is worthwhile to continue with treatment. For men who are in the early thinning process, Propecia can be very effective at stopping or even reversing hair loss.

He has co-authored "Effects of Finasteride on Dihydrotestosterone Content of Scalp Skin in Men with Male Pattern Baldness" and "Finasteride in the Treatment of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia." He also lectures on all aspects of hair loss and solutions as well as teaches physicians the hair restoration techniques. Dr. Gencheff is a Diplomat of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery. He is also a very active member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) and has attended over nine of the last twelve international meetings.

He is also a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, American Hair Loss Council, American Academy of Aesthetic and Restorative Surgery, American Society of Laser Medicine and Surgery, American Medical Association and the American Osteopathic Association.
