First off hello everyone, now I'm looking into seeing about finding doctors in my area who deal comfortably with transgender. I'm looking to get personal injections perscribed by the doctor(I had read it somewhere else on this site.). At any rate is there a listing of doctors in the US somewhere out there?

Hello Alexander,
Welcome to Susan's. I think that you will find that this is a great place to be, to meet new friends, ask questions, and seek advice. There is lots of information here, take a look at the Wiki, and the library, and make sure that you read the rules. So relax and enjoy your stay.
As to your question - "is there a listing of doctors in the US somewhere out there?" I'm not sure if such a list exists in the US, I know there is no such list in Canada. I think your best approach to start with is to post your location here, and see if any of our members live in your area and who may be able to help you. Failing that, try looking up, or Google local Gay, Lesbian, Bi, Trans (GLBT) support groups in your area and ask there. They are usually in the know.
Hope this helps,
Chat later,
Steph
