Title: WEST COAST: Need help getting a good quote for Tracheal Shave
Post by: Sincerely Tegan on March 09, 2015, 12:48:02 PM
Hi, Tegan Willow here.

So, I'm a trans California girl, living between Los Angeles and Orange County, and I'm looking for the best price I can get for a tracheal shave.  Of course quality work is important, too.  Also I ideally want this by Summer.  Some doctors seem to have a 6-12 month waiting list, and I'm really not willing to wait that long, since my Adam's Apple is a huge hurdle for me in terms of presenting.

Any suggestions or resources are most welcome.

Thanks!

I am tentatively set for one in a few weeks. I have to have my nose worked on, not for cosmetic reasons but functionality reasons. I am having it done while I am getting that procedure done. I had my consult a week ago. The cost is around $5k. Dr. is Harrison Lee in Beverly Hills. I was able to get an appointment rather quickly. While the cost may be a little high the timing is good.

Good luck. Hugs.

Thanks Jess,

I have gotten a similar quote, also in Beverly Hills.  They also seemed to have availability soon, which is a good thing, but I really don't want to have to pay for somebody else's Beverly Hills storefront address.

Any other ideas or avenues?

West coast ladies, where all did you go?
