Hopkins Bayview Medical Center in Baltimore, he completed his dermatology

served as chief resident.
While in Baltimore, Dr. Cooley underwent intensive training in
dermatologic surgery and hair transplantation. He trained in the office of Dr.
James Vogel, a noted plastic surgeon from Johns Hopkins. During this time, he
performed laboratory research on "cloning" hair follicle cells using cell
culture. After residency, he established his practice in Charlotte, North

hair transplantation is his main focus.
Dr. Cooley is board
certified in dermatology and dermatologic surgery. He is an active member of the

their annual conferences. He has published numerous papers in the field of hair
