Oh my goodness. The voice of a female nurse at Dr. Meltzer's office!

I called his office with a question and was given a nurse and Oh My Gosh, her voice was amazing. Everything I read about the female voice was present in her voice. I was in awe. My jaw dropped. I was dazzled. But......................I also felt quite inferior and felt like I'd never reach that level. I got very depressed too. What should I do?

She's probably a cis woman (I don't think he has any trans women working at his office) and most cis women have typical sounding female voices. Anyway, no need to feel inferior, just keep working on your voice effectively, and you will probably be able to develop a nice voice in time. Anyway, she deals with trans people on a daily basis, so she probably wasn't judging your voice at all. Voice is hard in the beginning, but if you don't try to speak with a female voice in public, because it doesn't sound the way you want it too, you will probably not be able to develop a great sounding female voice, because it takes a lot of practice, and you have to speak with the voice as much as possible, so that it becomes your natural default voice.

Well - Cis-envy - a sadly common issue we all faced at one time, right? That women in the subway that has the perfecly female body shape or the most feminine face ... One should not think that its impossible to reach this because of being a trans woman, but simply one should try to think of it in a different way - that most other women do not have that perfect voice, face, body either - it has nothing to do with being trans and one should not start to feel "more trans" because of it or feel inferior or "less of a woman"... Its just that some women are more feminine and others are not ...

No reason to let it all slack, it still is worth trying to be your best and be as close to what you feel you should be like as possible
