NEW! Dr. Gary Lawsonhttp://www.plasticsurgery-sanantonio.com/ From an actual patient: "Although the web site doesn't show any FTM photos, he does have some at his office, and I can vouch that he does a good job, and has little patience for surgeons who don't do better work. His office is also giving me an SRS letter for me to be able to legally change my gender marker, which they offered without me having to ask. My surgery cost for the double incision/nipple graft was $6100, including anesthesia and vitamins." Dr Michael Stephanides, MD., Nashville, Tenn. <<< DO NOT CONTACT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOIR WARNING IS BELOW FROM HIS STAFF
May 2008:
After years of performing gender reassignment procedures, it is unfortunate that Dr. Stephanides is no longer able to maintain the infrastructure needed to care for these patients in the manner in which they need to be, therefor he is not accepting new patients for these procedures due to the overwhelming volume.
Thank you so much in advance for you help with this matter. Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me on his behalf.

Surgeons who supplied their surgical criteria Dr. Beverly FischerHi! My name is Bettye and I am Dr. Fischer's nurse. I am relatively new to Dr. Fischer's practice, but during the time that I have been here, I can say that the FTM chest surgery is one her favorite surgeries. It has been a very rewarding experience for everyone at the Advanced Center working with the FTM community. Surgery Types/Procedures, Costs and other great information! Dr. Fischer uses one of two approaches regarding the mastectomy. It is dependent on how much breast tissue you have. If you are a B cup or smaller, you would be eligible for the periareolar approach. This means making the incision around the areola and it is virtually a scarless procedure. The other technique, which is the most popular, is the double incision. Dr. Fischer makes her incision following the border of the pectoralis muscle, and when it heals, the incision looks like a shadow under the pec. She gets beautiful contour in the chest and the nipples are replaced as grafts. They loose erotic sensation, but maintain protective sensation. Either surgery takes about 4 hours and you will be in recovery for about one hour. You will wear a compression vest for about 2-3 weeks and have drains in for about 7-10 days, depending on how much drainage you have after surgery. We like for you to stay in the area until the drains are removed, if possible. Or you could have the doctor that does your pre-surgical clearance, or physical, remove the drains. You should arrange that with him/her prior to surgery, however. If you decide to schedule surgery with us, I will send you a list of hotels in the area which charge about $79/night. We also would like for you to have a doctor in your area, preferably a surgeon, who can follow you post-operatively, should the need arise. The total cost of the surgery is $6800.00 and that covers everything. 10% is paid on the day that you book your surgery and the balance is due 3 weeks prior to the surgery date.
Surgery Requirements: You will also need medical clearance from your family doctor. A history and physical and a blood test, called a CBC is required. It has no bearing on the surgery if you take testosterone or not. You will also need a letter from your therapist regarding the gender issue. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call me at (410) 308-4700 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting (410) 308-4700 end_of_the_skype_highlighting. We are currently booking about 2-3 months in advance. All scheduling can be done via phone. You can put the 10% on a credit card or mail it to us prior to scheduling. Unfortunately, we do not offer any financing. Looking forward to talking with you. Sincerely, Bettye Go Back to Dr. Bev. Fischer's Listing
For chest surgery: One letter after 6 months of therapy. Hormone therapy is not mandatory.
Other for Bottom Surgery (paraphrased from GRS site by Nick):Hormonal sex reassignment (Testosterone) for Gender reassignment (bottom surgery) by a clinical behavioral scientist (your doctor or endocrinologist)Live as male for 12 full months2 Letters from mental health professionals; who alone, without colleagues - first from a person with a maters degree in gender identity disorders - second from a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist.
Dr. Foerester OKC, OK: Requirements: 2 Letters - One from a therapist or psychiatrist and one from a medical doctor preferably the doctor who prescribes your hormones and maintains your health related issues in this area.
