Gender Affirming Surgery
Our program acknowledges that every patient is on a unique journey. We are here to work with you to determine how to best meet your goals of external gender presentation.
We want you to feel and be as prepared as possible while you take these important steps towards surgery. Our clinical team is here to discuss questions you may have.

Insurance
We accept many insurance plans including Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurance, and offer out-of-pocket options as needed. Before your first visit, we ask that you obtain letters of readiness from your Primary Care Provider / Prescriber, and Mental Health provider, so we can efficiently schedule your surgery at a time that works for you. You will find the required documents for each procedure listed under the Procedures page. All of our pre-operative requirements are based on the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) Standards of Care (Version 8).
