Had surgery at Rush in Chicago. Ask me any questions you have.
I was in the hospital for a week and nursing facility for 2. Dilation is not bad, when they took out the packing and the first feeling inside made me nauseous and dizzy but the physical therapist helped with that and no more issues.
Surgery: Penile Inversion Vaginoplasty
Surgeon: Dr. Loren Schechter
How was your experience with him? I met him for a consultation years ago when I thought insurance would cover it, but he kinda gave me a weird vibe. I had heard his work was good so I still would’ve went with him if I could have, but it just wasn’t in the cards at the time unfortunately
He is great, some bad reviews about his support team years ago but the new team is great as well. He is a nerd, less people skills, I would compare him to a backend coder in my career. Knows his shit, is nice but short conversation unless you ask him questions. I asked so many, even one he hadn’t gotten before like has anyone had phantom testicle pain.
Ah okay, I think I just didn’t quite get the whole picture during the consult. The main weird thing was just that after asking me to change into a gown they left the room for like 20min with no explanation, but he probably just had other stuff on his plate that day. This was also like 5 years ago so it could’ve been bc of his team at the time.
