"Trans people have been told they may need to wait 32-years for gender reassignment surgery
Transgender people in New Zealand seeking to have gender reassignment surgery have been told they face a thirty year wait after the only specialist surgeon has retired.
Despite being a world-leader in the surgery in the 1990s, since the only male to female gender reassignment specialist surgeon in the country retired in 2014, trans people have been told of the gargantuan wait, reports the Guardian. "
