I was trying to decide between Dr Won, Dr Mangubat, and Dr Dreveskracht, because i have heard the most positive reviews for those three Seattle Area surgeons. But they all have such crazy long wait times for consultations! When I finally decided on Dreveskracht, and got the confidence to call to schedule, they told me she was booked up for consultations until January of next year!

With how much medical insurance is going up, I am not confident I will have a reasonable deductible by next year, so I want to get this done by a decent surgeon as soon as I can. I was told by the receptionist that Dr Gougoutas is highly recommended, and I quickly googled him. I saw some of his results in a gallery, and saw a few older posts on reddit that made me feel confident in his ability... but now I just want to ask if any of you had him as a surgeon, and what you thought about your results and his bedside manner?

Hey you guys.

I am trying to decide which surgeons to look into getting a consultation with, but there are so many surgeons that offer top surgery in WA I am feeling a little overwhelmed.

After all the bad publicity regarding Stiller in Spokane, and after my wife's issues with her own results from getting multiple gender affirming surgeries from him, I will not consider him as a surgeon.

I have a big rack >!(DD still after 2 years on T)!< and am looking for Double Incision with or without nipple grafts. I ultimately want to hear what the surgeon has to say regarding grafts before I dismiss them, but I am leaning towards no nips at the moment. (I had my nipples pierced for 11 years before having to take them out, and miss that, but know it's sometimes impossible to pierce grafted nipples, ie they heal differently, may not project enough, may reject, etc. And if I am not reasonably certain that I could pierce my tiny masc nipples post grafting, I'm not sure i want nipples at all?)

If any of you have had a good experience with your West-side Washington surgeons, please name drop here or DM me your recommendations. I would rather hear first hand how awesome a surgeon is than to just look it up on Google and not know if its skewed reviews or not.

Thanks in advance!
