I am feeling really down all of a sudden. I did a web search for top surgery surgeons in my area. Wonderful. There aren't any. Being a trans man in the bible belt is... horrible. I feel like I don't have any support here. It has taken me forever just to find a gender therapist that will work with my insurance. There are several GT's around here, but none of them take my insurance it seems. Then I find this out about the top surgery and I am devastated.
The closet one to me is in Plano, Texas. A good three hour drive from my house. I don't have the most reliable car, not a bucket full of money to spend on gas. I have a friend that lives nearby in the area, so if I am lucky, when the time comes, I will be able to stay with her. The problem goes back to my insurance though. He doesn't accept my insurance, and there is no way I can afford the surgery.
He accepts CareCredit, but I don't know if I could even qualify for that.
I am so down right now. It feels like I am embarking on a quest that is never going to be finish. Everything looks so dark right now. It isn't easy having to hide everything from my husband, and then on top of all of that, there is this. I just wish I could move!
surgeon, Dr. Frenzel. Helping both men and women in Texarkana, if you are looking for a cosmetic enhancement, look no further. I don't know if Texarkana is any closer to you. But it is about three hours from Plano and accessible to Louisiana and Arkansas.
DawnOday,
You just made my day! I actually used to live in Texarkana. I am only about an hour away from the city now. My mother still lives there. This is really fantastic news. Thank you so so so much!!!
