Survey of Patient Satisfaction with
Transgender Services from The Audit Information & Analysis Unit for London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Essex, Beds & Herts.

    A total of 647 responses were submitted over the six month survey period – 539 online and 108 on paper.

        * The ratio of MtF:FtM was 4:1 which reflects results found in other studies.
        * The age range of the population was 14 – 82 years with a median and mean age of 44 years. However there were differences between the MtF population where the average age was 46 and the FtM population where the average age was lower at 36.
        * In total 98% of those who had surgery felt it was a positive or mainly positive experience and were happy with their outcomes.
