This page contains links to
other transsexual resource and support websites. However, please bear in mind that I can’t in any way be held responsible
for the content in the websites of other people or organizations. The website guidelines I have listed below are based on
my own sometimes-limited experience as a visitor and in some cases on personal contacts. I hope that you will find these links
and contacts useful in the same way as I have.
Guidance and Support
If you in one way or another find yourself facing transsexualism you most certainly are
in need of guidance and support. I have always considered myself an independent person able to take care of myself, but without
guidance and support from others (you people out there), I don't think I would have survived. Changing sex is not something
you do for fun or a sexual kick; this is a very serious matter, and if you do this for the wrong reasons you might find yourself
ending up in the wrong gender, and I can assure you that living in the wrong gender is no game. It’s very destructive
and it’s a deadly serious condition.
There are many websites that provide guidance and support
for transsexual people, and there is no way I can list them all. So I will put forward only a few that I myself have had experience
with to get you started in finding your way.
Dr. Richard Curtis
http://www.transhealth.co.uk
Transhealth is an English clinic based in central London. They provide comprehensive healthcare to
gender dysphoric, gender variant, transvestite, trans-gendered and transsexual people. I have been to the London clinic where
I met Dr. Curtis, and I have from the start felt very confident in their work and comforted by all the friendliness they have
shown me. Having been confronted with the so-called Swedish healthcare, I find England to be quite different. Dr. Curtis provides
healthcare where the Swedish healthcare system completely fails, and there is actually a life-and-death difference.
If
you ever feel stuck in your process or have lost confidence in the people supposedly helping you, you should consider a second
opinion regardless of money and country borders. Your life is too important to waste on people harming you.
Dr. Douglas Ousterhout
http://www.drdouglasousterhout.com
Dr. Ousterhout performs facial feminization surgery (FFS) and breast augmentation. I have had the
honor to meet him and his Office Manager Mira and other people working with him. In all, he and his staff are highly recommended.
Dr. Toby Meltzer
http://www.tmeltzer.com
Dr. Meltzer performs male-to-female gender reassignment surgery (MTF GRS) and female-to-male gender
reassignment surgery (FTM GRS) and other cosmetic procedures related to those patients needs and cosmetic procedures
for non-transsexual patients too. I have had the honor to meet Dr. Meltzer too and in all, he and his staff are highly recommended.
Dr. Samir G. Ayoub
http://www.sanfranciscoaestheticdentistry.com
Okay! This doctor I have had the pleasure to meet too. However, Dr. Ayoub does teeth, and what has
that to do with transsexualism and changing gender, you may ask? My very simple answer is everything. He is highly
recommended, and he has shown me that there is another dimension to dentistry, a higher level of skill and understanding,
and Dr. Ayoub most certainly represents that.
