Here you will find information on the Sex Change Surgery, Sexual Reassignment Surgery (SRS) also called Gender Reassignment Surgery (GRS) and all the related cosmetic procedures that we offer to the Transgender community.

DEPOSITS:
A 50% deposit is required to schedule any procedure and as time and materials and a commitment to post operative care may be required, these deposits are non-refundable.

Do not schedule or submit any deposits unless you are comfortable with the information presented on these forms.

Do not schedule or submit any deposit if you are contemplating having other surgical procedures within a few weeks of your intended procedure with Dr. Reed, as this is often medically ill advised and your deposit will
not be refunded.  If concerned, please discuss this with Dr. Reed beforehand.

ADVISORIES:

Stopping Hormones before surgery:  REGARDLESS whether you are having a first stage vaginoplasty, a touch up or revision (2nd stage vaginoplasty), or even an orchiectomy, STOP estrogens a good month before surgery, as this may predispose to thromboses or emboli (unwanted clotting including the potential for fatal pulmonary emboli, coronary events, and/or stroke) . If you do not do this, your case may very well be cancelled. You may resume 10 days after surgery.

Also stop spironolactone within 2 weeks of your procedure as this medicine may interfere with the response of certain drugs administered during anesthesia called vasopressors.

Concent Forms:  Please view our web-site for a copy of your consent form related to the surgery you are anticipating. If you are unable to access a copy, kindly request our office to mail or fax you a copy. All consent forms are in Acrobat Reader format. Download the Reader here:
