We are proud to announce that Anastasakis Hair Clinic has been officially selected and featured in the 2026 Edition of Ape to Gentleman’s “World’s Best Hair Transplant Doctors 2026” — one of the most respected independent editorial platforms in men’s lifestyle, grooming, and self-improvement.
Even more significantly, our clinic is the only hair transplant clinic in Southeastern Europe included in this year’s edition, positioning Athens and Anastasakis Hair Clinic on the global map of elite hair restoration.
This recognition is not awarded lightly. Ape to Gentleman is not a marketing directory — it is a highly curated editorial platform driven by patient advocacy, evidence-based evaluation, and long-term credibility. Being included represents a meaningful, third-party endorsement that speaks directly to patients seeking reliable, ethical, and clinically excellent care.
What Is Ape to Gentleman?
Ape to Gentleman is a leading international men’s lifestyle publication that focuses on:
- Personal development
- Grooming and aesthetics
- Health and confidence
- Professional and personal success
Its readership consists of educated, discerning men who care about how they look, how they feel, and how they perform in life. Over the years, the platform has become known for its rigorous editorial standards and its refusal to promote products, services, or professionals that do not meet its internal criteria for quality and integrity.
The “World’s Best Hair Transplant Doctors” feature is one of the most widely read and referenced hair-loss resources on the site. It is used by men around the world as a starting point when making one of the most personal decisions of their lives: choosing who they trust with their appearance.

Why This Recognition Matters

Hair transplantation is a field where outcomes vary dramatically between clinics. Yet online, every provider claims excellence. That is why editorial inclusion from a respected third-party source carries enormous weight.
Being featured by Ape to Gentleman means:
1. Independent Editorial Validation
We were not added because of advertising, affiliation, or sponsorship. We were included because the editorial team — led by patient advocate and industry expert Spencer Stevenson — reviewed our work, our transparency, and our clinical standards and deemed them worthy of recommendation.
2. Global Visibility
Ape to Gentleman reaches a worldwide audience of men actively seeking high-quality solutions for hair loss. Inclusion in this guide places Anastasakis Hair Clinic alongside some of the most respected surgeons and clinics in the world.
Who Curates the Guide?
The guide is authored by Spencer Stevenson, a globally recognised patient advocate in the hair-loss and hair-transplant field. His role is unique: he is not a surgeon, not a clinic owner, and not a product vendor — he is a patient who has undergone hair restoration himself and has dedicated years to helping others avoid poor outcomes and unethical clinics.

Through his work across platforms like Spexhair and Ape to Gentleman, Spencer is known for:
- Demanding transparency from clinics
- Insisting on ethical patient treatment
- Evaluating long-term results, not just marketing images
- Highlighting only clinics that meet strict credibility thresholds
This is precisely why his editorial voice is so respected by patients worldwide — and why being included in his curated list is such a meaningful distinction.
Why Anastasakis Hair Clinic Stands Out Globally as a hair transplant clinic

In a field where most clinics carefully control what the public sees, Anastasakis Hair Clinic has taken a radically different approach: full transparency through real patient evidence.
The clinic is one of the very few hair-transplant centres worldwide to publish hundreds of real patient video journeys, showing genuine results under natural lighting, in motion, and months after surgery. These are not marketing videos — they are patients openly sharing their outcomes, hairlines, donor areas, and overall experience.
On YouTube alone, Anastasakis Hair Clinic has uploaded hundreds of patient videos, giving prospective patients something extremely rare in this industry: the ability to see how results actually look and behave in real life.
Most clinics are reluctant to publish even a single unedited patient video. Here, patients are encouraged to explore them all — and even to ask other clinics to provide similar material.
That level of confidence is only possible when the work stands up to scrutiny.
This culture of transparency is further reinforced by the clinic’s 1,000+ Google Reviews, making it one of the most independently reviewed hair-transplant clinics in Europe. These reviews reflect thousands of real patient interactions — from consultation to surgery to long-term satisfaction.
For Ape to Gentleman readers, this matters. Because true credibility is not built through claims — it is built through verifiable patient experiences, repeated at scale.
Why Being the Only Clinic in Southeastern Europe Matters

Hair restoration is increasingly global. Patients travel across borders in search of quality, value, and trustworthy medical care.
Being the only clinic in Southeastern Europe included in the 2026 edition means that Anastasakis Hair Clinic now serves as a regional reference point — not just for Greece, but for patients across:
- The Balkans
- Eastern Mediterranean
- Middle East
- Southern Europe
It places Athens firmly on the international hair-transplant map as a destination for high-level, ethically delivered hair restoration.
How This Helps You as a Patient
When you are considering a hair transplant, you are not just choosing a procedure — you are choosing:
- Who will shape your future appearance
- Who will manage your donor supply
- Who will determine whether your result looks natural or artificial
Third-party recognition from platforms like Ape to Gentleman gives you something invaluable: independent reassurance.
It means:
- You are not relying solely on clinic-controlled marketing
- Your clinic has passed an external credibility filter
- Your choice is supported by a trusted editorial authority
