Dr Maurice Collins on the Saturday Night Show

General Discussion Media & Awareness
#1

Medical Director of HRBR (hair loss clinic) Dr Maurice Collins is scheduled to appear on tomorrows Saturday Night Show on RTE television.

Please email the show at thesaturdaynightshow@rte.ie and ask them to ask hard questions of Dr Maurice Collins about Finasteride. It should be pointed out that Dr Collins is not impartial and has a financial interest in promoting Finasteride. This same Doctor claimed the side effects “go away in 100% of cases”. One question they should ask him if Finasteride is so “safe” why has a Foundation being set up to help men with PFS. I bet if hes asked about Finasterides safety he will get uncomfortable and try and change the topic.

Maurice Collins should not be allowed to go unchallenged the more people who email the show the better.

Thanks. The more people who email the show on fins side effects the better.

#5

I can never understand why posts like these don’t get more of a response.

All regular forum members should email the show.

What time is this show on Saturday night and which channel and which satellite?

Can it be picked up in the uk too?

#7

I emailed them Tigershull

Its on at 950pm on RTE 1. I believe its available on sky in the UK.

It may be possible for you to watch it on the RTE website but I’m not sure if they allow viewers without an Irish IP address to watch their streaming content.

See here rte.ie/player/ie/

If that doesnt work you could try this website aertv.ie

Just emailed them as well.

And Mark is right: everyone needs to participated in campaigns like this.

Thanks.

That’s another e-mail off to them. I put at the end of the mail: “I would be very grateful if the risks of prescribing propecia were discussed with Dr Collins and not in a manner that would enable him to further falsely reassure the viewers.” as I was concerned in the event that they did raise our concerns that it didn’t provide him with further opportunity to falsely reassure potential victims.

Fingers crossed for tonight.

I’ve just been blocked off Dr Collins twitter page for the 3rd time he obviously does’nt want the truth about Finasteride getting out.

This so called doctor should be put in jail for deliberately for misleading patients about Finasterides safety so he line his own pockets.

I just watched it Dr Collins was only on the show for about 3 mins nothing was said about Finasteride.

They interviewed a guest for about 20mins about his hair transplant this was basically a long advertisement for HRBR hair loss clinic. The guest kept stating how great HRBR and Maurice Collins were.

Dr Collins has been given tens of thousands of free advertising.

The only saving grace here is that WE know, in the coming years, more and more men – all around the globe – WILL develop PFS.

And when that happens, we can say, We told you so! And then men who DID listen to the likes of Dr Collins will be furious at him – and Merck. So let them live with that wrath.
