Questions to Ask
(Where possible, get answers from web site first; perhaps confirm with surgeon.)
- Do you have a fixed price for the procedure? If not, can you estimate the likely cost?
- How long is your wait-list, at present, for a surgery appointment?
- How soon could I get an appointment for an initial consultation?
- When did you first start doing vaginoplasty?
- Approximately how many vaginoplasties have you performed?
- Have any of your vaginoplasty patients reported unexpected issues?
- Do you prefer to do vaginoplasty in a single operation, or labia and clitoral hood separately?
- Can you put me in touch with transwomen whose surgeries you performed (or point me at what they've written about their experiences)?
