The Mnistry of Health today announced that gender confirming surgeries will be able to be done in B.C.
Although the program is not yet accepting referrals, once it is scaled up there will be fourteen surgeons around the province and services will include vaginoplasties, vulvoplasties, metaoidioplasticies and phalloplasties.
This will mean that patients seeking those surgeries will no longer have to travel to Montreal or to the United States, as is now the case. Quality of care will be able to be maintained more easily.
