With a diverse and extensive background spanning various medical specialties, including intensive care, emergency medicine, and hair transplantation, the practitioner brings a wealth of experience to the table. Having served as an Intensive Care and Coronary Care Physician as well as an Emergency Physician at Regina General Hospital in the mid-1990s, they developed a solid foundation in critical care and acute medicine. Transitioning to the field of hair restoration, they spent nearly a decade as a Hair Transplant Specialist with a multinational hair restoration group, where they not only performed surgeries but also played a pivotal role in training new physicians and medical assistants. This hands-on experience was complemented by active involvement in professional associations such as the Canadian Association of Hair Restoration Surgery (CAHRS), the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS), and the American Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ASHRS), where they served in various capacities, including advisory council member and committee chair.
In addition to their clinical practice, the practitioner has made significant contributions to the advancement of hair restoration surgery through their editorial roles and committee memberships. As a Column Editor for “Hair Repair” and “Surgeon of the Month” in the Hair Transplant Forum International, they shared their expertise and insights with colleagues worldwide. Their leadership extends to committee roles within the ISHRS, where they have been actively involved in initiatives related to continuing medical education, fellowship training, and website development. Their commitment to education and innovation is further underscored by their roles as Scientific Program Co-Chair for the Basics Program at the ISHRS Scientific Assembly and as a member of the ISHRS Physician Training Task Force. Through their multifaceted experience and dedication to the field, the practitioner continues to shape the landscape of hair restoration surgery and advance the standards of care.

a month agoI haven't actually met Erica Kalke but she gave me incredible support virtually which I am so so grateful for. She didn't need to go out of her way for the advice but did anyway, many many thanks to her.

a month agoAnswer your phones so we don’t have to drive all the way to get an answer. Yes I was late 20 mins, and was calling the office phone to let them know but no answer. When I entered the office, there were 2 receptionist (ladies) both were looking at something on the mobile phone totally oblivious to the ringing phone number. No wonder why they could pick the call. Please have respect for people time and answer your phones.
