hi yonachu
I had VFS at Yanhee with Dr.Ornuma in late 2007 (my brother who is a doctor as well,knows her, and she's a great doctor)
No drama with me , i had a small scar on my throat .. BUT it's not comfy after operation , felt like having sorethroat (you know when you had to clear your throat all the time, and it didnt look good when I had to do that every 5 mins when I was in public) .. been like this for 2 years before I had my adam apple's shaved
My fem voice was great, very fem but the voice came out not loud , had to use lots of energy especially when I talked over the phone lol ...
and no I didnt have to do any training , except I couldn't speak for about 10 days .. no training with Dr.Ornuma needed .. she just checked my pitch and told me not to talk too much in about a month
but this procedure is good for someone who is not older than 30 years old (I was 28-29 when I did it) she said the older you are, the lower vocal cord ,, which makes it hard for surgery ..
there is another Doctor .. his name is Dr.Somyos from Yoskarn Clinic , I think he's Dr.Ornuma's teacher (not so sure, but that's what I've heard) , he's great too.
good luck with your decision !
