I'm one of Dr Kaushik's patients and had SRS mid May & he's a pure genius & is the #1 transgender surgeon in India and well earned.
Healing was fast. However your pre-existing health does make a difference. Smoking is the biggest cause of complications due to impeded blood flow.
I've done a 2 stage approach, penile only first and then sigmoid later on if I find depth inadequate. So far so good though anyway

I would only caution against flying out too early whether Thailand or India. My psychiatrist at the gender clinic had many stories of women having had great work done in Thailand etc and then having prolapses resulting from flights. I have no data to back this up but if you are to fly early ensure you're given some kind of anti-embolism injection. Discuss with your GP pre surgery if necessary.
But Dr Kaushik is a 10 on 10 & the staff were plain awesome, 24/7 care, private air-conditioned room, airport pick up and drop off, easy.
