How much did Dr. Minbo Shim charge you? Did you have both the adult stem cells and PRP injected into your ears?
Oh my, I am truly sorry you have had to deal with such an ordeal. I hope you a speedy recovery.
Responsibility for what asshole? I never told anyone to go to this clinic. I have consistently said that this needs to be further studied and have urged caution and due diligence to anyone that would consider this. I have also not declared that the improvements I have experienced were undoubtedly due to Dr. Shim's treatment. Also, not one single person that has followed in my footsteps actually consulted me about it beforehand.
Everyone who has gone has conversed with you in this posting. They found out about it because of this thread. If you think that you had no effect on people going, you are crazier than I thought.
If you read through this forum long enough there is no "hive mind" and plenty of people have expressed reservations about Dr. Shim without resorting to a personal attack on JohnAdams.Everyone who has gone has conversed with you in this posting.

I see I am no longer welcome here and the hive mind has been rustled. Don't worry I'll make sure the door doesn't get me on the way out.
Obviously @Tom Wilton is a troll and a bad one at that. He's a crazy and unrealistic jackass.
Approx 72 injections between PRP, dexamethasone and antibiotics, 4 weeks of treatment.
The MRI should not have been done. He should at least give you your money back. That is only fair.
When I was in the scanner, they didn't initiate the emergency shutdown, so I had to indicate to them wanting a shutdown by patting on the MRI table. They said they had already taken almost the entire exam and they charged me more than $350USD.
As of right now you have a total of 12 posts on this website. 7 of them are in this thread. Every time you make a post here the thread gets bumped. So, if anything, you're keeping him relevant.
John why do you think you experience this big swings in your hearing, some days you say you feel "almost healed", but other days seems like you fall backwards? Diet perhaps? Have you tried journaling what you did the days before your good and bad days?
Hi Aldo,
I think it is an upward trend. If anything, sleep, stress, some noise, I do have a 3 year old.
To be honest, John did far more research than I did, and is probably a better judge than I because of his degree. That said, in my opinion the treatment is still worth the attention for the effects it seems to have on the synaptic ribbons. If I am understanding John correctly, his hearing loss wasn't necessarily improved, but his hidden hearing loss (the ability to filter through noise) and tinnitus was. According to what I have been reading, tinnitus and hidden hearing loss are thought to possibly come from the synaptic ribbons. Growth factors are also discussed by researchers when searching for a treatment or cure for tinnitus, so I believe that PRP is still a possible treatment for tinnitus and hidden hearing loss.
During my communication with Dr. Shim, I also found that he came across very genuine and sincere, but sadly he completely denied Aldo's story which completely changed my opinion of him. I guess it all turned out for the best, because I was very close to going for treatment during my winter break but at least now I know.
Well I asked what the chances of an infection happening during treatment were and he said very low--that he only had one case of it 5 years ago. I then talked to him about Aldo's situation (not by name, but Dr. Shim knew who I was referring to), and Dr. Shim denied any infection while Aldo was in treatment there. Dr. Shim said that antibiotics were used as a preventative measure for infection.
I don't know of the full situation, so I don't know. You'd have to ask John about it. He was there at the same time Aldo was for a good bit.
Seems like the scammer is trying to cover his tracks. A true snake in the grass. Pretty obvious he doesn't want people knowing he botched a procedure and is straight lying through his crooked teeth.
Like the fact that I cannot find any records of a registered lawyer named Tom Wilton anywhere? You are obsessed man, just look at your avatar. You really remind me of someone.
