Media inquiry: Belgian TV documentary on PFS …
Philip Roberts to you
“Koppen,” a documentary TV series on Belgium’s VRT network, is working on a documentary about the dangers of finasteride; specifically, the drug’s role in causing post-finasteride syndrome.
Michael Dilissen is the lead reporter on the story. Here’s some background on him:

about.me/michael.dilissen
As part of the documentary, Michael would like to interview PSF patients in Belgium and/or The Netherlands. But he’s also interested in speaking with patients in the UK.
If the show can get enough patient interviews – demonstrating to the public the many potential dangers of finasteride – the network thinks it has a strong change of getting a local government ban on selling finasteride for hair loss (i.e., Propecia).
That said, please feel free to reach out directly to Michael asap if you’re able to share your own story. If you just want to speak on background, that’s fine as well; he would never include you in any coverage unless your explicitly agree to an interview; so just talking on off the record only means you can help educate him, not that you have to do a TV interview (unless of course that’s what you want).
