Next steps
- Fill out and return the Service Inquiry Form for CGSP
- Get added to the wait list
- When it’s your turn on the waitlist and CGSP contacts you to schedule your consultation meet with a fully licensed mental health clinician who is knowledgeable about gender identity, and who is able and willing to write a letter of support for this surgery. Contact us if you need a referral to such a clinician.
- Ensure that your therapist sends a letter of support for this surgery to CGSP. Your therapist can email, fax, or mail your letter. If your therapist does not have experience writing letters of support for medical intervention for transgender people, please encourage your therapist to contact us before writing the letter.
- Once CGSP has received your letter you can call our office to schedule your consultation.
Please note that before your consultation appointment, you will need to be completely smoke-free and nicotine-free for at least one month. A nicotine test will be given before scheduling surgery. We cannot schedule your surgery if you smoke or vape any substance or use/consume any nicotine-containing products.
