"I had a consultation 7/2020 for transgender f to m bottom surgery with Dr. Loren Schechter. I drove 500 miles for the consult. He told me in my consult that 1) because of my age he couldn't make me a useable phallus (we both knew how old I was before I drove to Chicago), 2) refused to show me any photos of his work, 3) told me that I wouldn't really be able to understand all the complicated stuff he was telling me, 4) told me that he really doesn't do MLD the procedure that I was interested in, even though he states that he does it on his website, and most importantly, 5)misgendered me in my medical files in his physician health portal which contradicts all of my legal and financial records. I wasted valuable time and money to drive to Chicago to listen to that garbage. He pontificated about "gravity flow" when talking about my bladder (which he has no actual, medical knowledge of). I seriously doubt that the man even does f to m surgeries. Even though I left with no plan to ever ...
see the guy again, he had a surgical coordinator send me some sketchy, extremely brief information about how I should prepare for surgery and gave me another doctor's name with whom I should set up an appointment. I think that the man is a sham as a transgender friendly surgeon and specifically f to m issues. "
