In 1996, he joins the Centre Metropolitain de Chirurgie (C.M.C.) and works tirelessly for the improvement of the Montreal Penile Inversion Vaginoplasty Technique which becomes a gold standard.

It would be better if you could come in for a consultation so we could talk about what type of surgery would be better for you
Thanks for your interest
Also, you need to be followed with a endocrinologist and a psychologist ..

Hi, I have a letter from my family doctor that has been folowing me for the last 25 years and a lettre from my endochrinologist… I also have regularly seen a therapist of the Montreal General gender disphoria team but I ceased the therapy after a year and a half.
So would a letter from my endochrinologist and familly doctor be sufficient for a double mastectomy. I just cant live this way any longer, it’s driving me crazy and I am developping other related problems… Since I strap the breast it creates pressure on my lungs and I have trouble breathing…All that pushes my stomach and gives me dgestion problem … and etc etc… I need more than anything this operation…

dear doctor, hello, i was wondering the cost of mtf srs. my child was born male but at 3 and 1/2 yrs old i knew my child was different. i remember i took my child to a child psychologist at that time and said fix my baby. the doctor after doing test for a couple of weeks said my baby had gender identity disorder. that there was nothing wrong with my baby, i had the problem. which i did. since then i raised my child as society would think one should, but i also told my child that in life she would have to pretend for safety matters. i dont think this was the best way to have raised my child. i wish the other doctor had given me options or told me about hormone therapy etc. i love my child. i want her to be happy and healthy. i don’t want to worry about her. i feel surgery would make her complete and whole. i am a single mother. what is the cost? please advise so i can start saving. thank you for all you do.
