Our History The Wimpole Clinic began as a specialist heart clinic back in 1975. Led by respected cardiologists Dr Scholes and Dr Croxon, the clinic focused on surgical precision, clinical governance, and long-term patient outcomes. And these are values we live and breathe even today.Dr May joined the clinic as a junior doctor in 1981, when we were still operating from Hannah House in Marylebone (before moving to our current home on Harley Street in 2019). At this time hair transplantation was still in its infancy, with the infamous hair plugs still being used as the dominant technique. These now-outdated techniques often left patients with unnatural results and poor aesthetic outcomes. This had to change — and it did. Book A Free Consultation Award Winning Hair Transplant Clinic The evolution of hair transplantation Dr May began to refine alternative approaches to hair transplantation, exploring the strip surgery technique (also known as FUT). FUT involved removing a strip of skin from the donor area, then meticulously dissecting it into small follicular units. Implanting smaller grafts reduced the unnatural appearance of hair plugs, so surgeons could prioritise natural hairline design and follicle preservation. This marked a major shift in the hair transplant landscape. Dr May — or Mickey May, as he’s affectionately known — became widely recognised for producing results that were far ahead of their time, attracting referrals from other clinics across the UK and internationally. As a result of Dr May’s pioneering work, the Wimpole Clinic transitioned to become a full-time hair transplant clinic in the early 1990s. And as techniques evolved further, we adapted without compromising on our core principles. We introduced FUE — which is now the most popular hair transplant technique in the world — through senior surgeons including Dr Mir Malkani, who joined the team in 2012. Book A Free Consultation Founding The British Association of Hair Restoration Surgery (BAHRS) Dr May’s influence extends beyond clinical innovation. In the 1980s, he co-founded the British Association of Hair Restoration Surgery (BAHRS) with Dr [firstname] Farjo, establishing ethical guidelines, training standards, and peer collaboration in the UK.Later, Dr May participated in regular meetings with other respected surgeons from around the world, in a forum that would later become the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS).Dr May continues to strive for clinical excellence over professional self-promotion. As ever, his focus is on patient outcomes, peer mentorship, and surgical care — and as a clinic, we remain firmly committed to these values too.
