Disgusting Service and False Promises
David Lewis now operating same sub standard service called Parkwood Clinic in Prestwich. Funny, although he claims this is his own company, started by himself out of his own pocket, all from scratch, blah, blah...the company director seems to be a 24 year old girl called Sophie ver Maas...could this be his daughter?? He has much to hide. A total snake.

David Lewis
David Lewis is totally untrustworthy. Sophie is his would be model girlfreind. He has used her to seem more credible to the courts to gain access to his daughter and start up Parkwood. This man has no ethics what so ever and everything he says is a lie. Do not have any dealings with him or anybody connected with him. On his new web-site against his name is a picture of a Chinese gentleman!

Parkwood clinic prestwich
David lewis is untrustworthy and forces people to buy so called equipment discounted even though it's 5 times cheaper on eBay or Internet and doesnt give out the product or refund when asked. Keeps saying will refund at end if the month. Keeps saying same thing over and over and gets nasty to customers. He is a total snake and there to rip people off. Wish had read comments about him and sham company before used it. Stay clear and if fallen into his slime trap then contact watchdog and keep ringing and ringing everyday until he crawls back under his rock. AVOID PARKWOOD CLINIC PRESTWICH IT'S A SHAM COMPANY..

David Lewis - Parkwood Clinic
I have had a similar experience to Chris28. I bought a deal through Wowcher. The first consultation, David did a hard sell to get me to buy a laser comb. I was promised this at the beginning of the new year. Towards the end of January, the comb hadn't arrived, after being promised 3 times it would be there when I went for my treatment. I therefore cancelled the comb. I was informed they would deduct £25 "handling fee" but I would be re-imbursed within 28 days. Well, it is now the middle of June and I still haven't received my money back. I am truly disgusted in David. I have phoned and e-mailed him about this many times, and he has promised to pay me the money I am owed, but hasn't delivered. I have stopped going for my treatments also, as I have now been told by a good friend who is a trichologist, that this laser treatment is a waste of time. Do not waste your money!

David Lewis PARKWOOD CLINIC
Having work for a PARKWOOD competitor my honesty should be valued ....
HAIR REPLACEMENT : customised systems :made from human hair vented onto bases made from various materiel's.
HUMAN HAIR .. you cant buy from hair wholesalers ..
HAIR ..is grown ,cut off root point down ,cleansed ,DNA code recorded then imported to UK...
WIGMASTERS then put there orders in pay themselves and hair gets sent to them ...
WIGMASTER then custom make the systems hair by hair drawing, knotting and sealing exact to the order...
This is very long process some clients wait longer as there hair has to be an exact match and and that hair might be in wait of arrival...
DAVID LEWIS of PARKWOOD fact: his systems are the very best ...This man does all he can but some things are out of reach and in the hands of others,its a part of hair replacement...very unfair to try to ruin a man by reviews .complaints should be in writing direct to him so he can rectify any problem. When money is handed over to david ,,that money then goes to the wig master not David's pocket..
EBAY may I say are copies from china on plastic and fabric base.hair is mixed to profit more on the sale.
try the flame test and see for yourself...
I have tried to fit an ebay system there a world away trust me
Im a hair specialist ,educator ,teacher of 25 yrs .I find bad reviews online shocking and un called for .David is very approachable I know he would do all he can for any client..he dosnt deserve all this

AVOID AVOID AVOID
I purchased the deal threw Wowcher. £149 for hair replacement therapy. The course was once a week for 3 months then once every 2 weeks for 3 months. I was messed about just trying to book the consultation. Just booking a consultation took 3 weeks then another 2 weeks for the appointment. I purchased 2 deals one for myself and one for my mother. After discussing the treatment I was shocked to find that David Lewis was trying to sell the actual machine for £1800. He told us we wouldn't have to go back for the treatment we could do it in the comfort of our own home. We were told he would call in 5 days to see whether we wanted to got to the clinic for the treatment or purchase the machine. 10 days later I got a call from David he asked what we wanted to do I told him we wouldn't be purchasing the machine as there are no reviews and not having tried the equipment we wouldn't be spending a further £1800 on top of the £300 spent. He said that's fine he would call to arrange an appointment for when to start treatment. That was around the 15th July. Today is the 10th September. I have been calling wowcher eveyday for the past month trying to get my money back. I finally received an email that they would refund the money. It was all a con to sell a machine. There is no treatment. The deal was purchased on the 10th June. It is disgusting the way he has treated us. Never deal with wowcher in the past month I have asked to speak to a manager everyday but I have been told the manager won't talk to me. Disgusted.

I have just spoken to David Lewis. We have listened to each other's concerns about what actually happened between the time I purchased the deal and me writing my review. I don't know how to delete my review but have reached a mutual agreement. Please disregard my review above. I would like to apologise to David as well. Please accept my apology.

Parkwood Clinic
Like Annie, I purchased a laser treatment course at Parkwood through Wowcher which went well and through David Lewis I paid out twice as much again for a laser comb and minoxidil. At the end of the course David convinced me to pay a further £1800 by credit card for a laser machine to continue treatment at home. I was told that it would be delivered "in a few weeks". After a couple of months I chased up delivery to be told that the machine would be delivered in a further few weeks. I continued to ring David every 4-6 weeks to be given various excuses and promises. After a year my patience finally ran out and I wrote to the London clinic to request a refund, to have my letter returned "addressee gone away". I wrote to the Manchester clinic to have my letter returned undelivered and "not called for". Finally I wrote again to Manchester to threaten legal action. When I heard nothing back I checked with Companies House to discover that Parkwood Clinic Ltd had been dissolved on the date of my final letter. I feel that I have been "duped". Ms Sophie Ver Maas (Director) has stated above that Parkwood offers 100% customer service and a full refund would be offered if not entirely happy. Prove it and refund my money!

CCJ against Parkwood Clinic
I also have been duped. I paid £1400 through installments over a year with David telling me not to pay the last £400 until he could guarantee delivery- when i had started paying there was never a question of not bwing guaranteed the product at the end. When I asked to gave my money refunded back in November 2015 he told me that was not possible. I have filed a claim against him in April but the number for Parkwood Clinic has now been disconnected. The courts have awarded me judgement so the next step is organising bailiffs unless he miraculously reappears with my money.

PARKWOOD CLINIC
I have been made aware of these complaints and firstly my sincere apologies to the REAL customers who have had some problems in the delays within the company. In the last 18 months we have had a huge demand for hair lasers which we struggled to keep up with due to a problem with the manufacturer. In the last six months we have delivered 60 laser machines to customers and we have another 12 outstanding to deliver to waiting customers. Due to the close of the company, we have no legal obligation to deliver these machines, however I do not leave people out of pocket.
The people on this site with real complaints P.shembri, Olivia4, Keri4, Olivia and Keri I have spoken to. However false and disturbing comments ('chop', 'suziwong', 'christabell') about members of my family or my children i do not take lightly. I have tried to contact these people but with no response surely if they were a customer they would want to resolve any matter they have, strangely they have not responded. Anyone who has been a GENUINE customer I would urge you to contact me on here to resolve any matter you have.
The concerning posts made by Jwalsh about addresses, cars and times I apparently leave the house have been reported to the police (as i said i do not take these comment lightly) who found them very concerning due to the threat and the stalking nature of them especially with 3 young children at home. The police are now in the process of tracking this user name to find out who this is to take this matter further.
Having worked in this industry for the past 17 years I have tried my best to deliver products and services to the best of my ability sometimes however this has been out of my control. I have seen hundreds of patients who have all been more than satisfied with the service they have received but like in any business in this day in age you cant guarantee 100 percent satisfaction to every customer. This particular problem with the lasers has been something we unfortunately didn't foresee, the manufacturer put the prices of the machines up which we had to covered that extra cost, with us being a small business, put a lot of strain on us. Which subsequently has put a premature end to a business we have invested a lot of time and money into.
Finally any REAL customer with a GENUINE concern please contact me through this site.
Best regards
David

Still nothing
I still have not received any information on this product. In fact the only time David Lewis / David Lapworth contacted me was because I had posted on this forum and he wanted me to leave a positive message telling others that he was sorting out my machine as he was finding it difficult to get people to pay him the rest of their balances. David, you said to contact you through this site, therefore I am posting publicly as this seems to be the only way to gain your attention. You were not able to deliver the machine when you were in business, so i have even less faith in you being able to do so now that your business has gone belly up. I know you have to appear to be doing the right thing but I am yet to see evidence of this. I am also unsure if you are legally allowed to continue trading as you are unable to offer a money back guarantee on the product. I will not be paying you any more money until I have the product in hand as I do not trust you, and indeed will be surprised if I do hear from you again.

Parkwood Clinic, 100 Harley Street Ltd, David Lewis: suspected fraud
Unfortunately I am yet another victim of David Lewis' (Lapworth) apparent deceit. I purchased a £149 laser treatment course through Wowcher and after attending a consultation with him he pressurised me to pay a further £1850 to purchase a lasergen machine. After chasing delivery of the machine I was given a bunch of excuses for non delivery so I asked for a refund in August 2015. Needless to say I am yet to receive a penny.
David, prove that we are not victims of fraud and have the decency to repay us the money we paid you in good faith and do not rehash your previous statement to me that you are an honest person who has treated cancer patients. I have wasted over a year now trying to resolve this and despite your lies to Wowcher, you have made no attempt to contact me to discuss repayment or offer me a repayment plan. In fact you have failed to reply to my emails since September 2015 and you refused to respond to my letter before action.
You continue to operate from 100 Harley Street, London under a new company (100 Harley Street Ltd), providing the same services and funnily enough there appears to be no reference on your website to any difficulty in supplying lasergen machines which you continue to sell: http://www.100harleystreet.com/shop/
David - I await my refund, failure of which I will proceed with legal action.

You would be a fool to do business with this man
David Lewis is a fraud, he is a lying scumbag and I wouldn't trust him for one minute. The house, the cars, the business is all a facade. And anyone that would buy a hair replacement from a man that looks like he's wearing a birds nest on his head would have to be stupid. He looks ridiculous and anyone that knows will tell you he is. Who on earth would want to wear that on their head God only knows. Stay away from this man

He's a fraud!
David is a fraud! He'll initially charm you, lure you into something and promises wonders (after all who wants to become bald, especially if female) then takes your money and disappears.
If you're thinking of doing any sort of business with him don't!
If you have been affected by this fraud, like myself and others on this website, please do contact me personally.
